As a church drummer this mic is good enough. The sound is not the best out there but does the jobb for me. Use it on 08", 10" and 12" toms. My only complaint about it i wish shure made the mic clamp in such a way that you could flip/move the part of the clamp where the mic goes in, to either left or right like the shure A75M . Apart from that i will recommend it especially if you are on a budget and cant afford its big brother Beta98A Mpc mini nor the Audix micro or those from Earthwork audio.
