Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the PGA57's aggressive character is well-suited for capturing the snap and bite of metal snare drums, though EQ might be needed to tame harsh frequencies.
Absolutely, the PGA81’s balanced response lends itself well to stereo miking, though experimentation with mic placement is key to achieve optimal results.
