602-II
The cardioid 602-II is a dynamic microphone especially
suitable for use with kick drums, bass guitar cabs, tubas
and other low frequency instruments.
Its lightweight high-performance voice coil construction
delivers fast transient signals. The low frequency
extension and mid band attenuation produce an ultra-
smooth pre-shaped signal. The microphone is ideal for
direct use on the most problematic bass signal sources.

Positioning the microphone
Kick drums
In order to prevent interference due to crosstalk between
adjacent sound sources, try to position the microphone so
that the interfering sound source is located in the angle
area of the highest cancellation of the microphone
(approx. 180°; see polar diagram).
Position Resulting sound Commentary
