It isn&#8217;t enough to capture them with overheads or a nearby snare microphone. In order to get the best result, and have the ability to define the hi-hat sound later, you&#8217;ll want to record it with one of the best microphones for hi-hats.<\/p>\n<h2>What Features Does a Good Hi-Hat Mic Need?<\/h2>\n<p>The best microphone for hi-hats will help you capture all the sizzle you need to get out of the top-end. For that, small diaphragm condensers do an incredible job. Small diaphragms tend to sound very detailed and hi-fi, especially in the higher frequencies, which will let you represent the hi-hat as accurately as possible. It&#8217;ll also help ensure that it cuts through a dense mix, and even cuts through the other parts of the drum kit.<\/p>\n<p>Another good feature to have, but isn&#8217;t a deal-breaker if it doesn&#8217;t, is a high-pass filter. The hi-hat consists mainly of higher frequencies. Having a filter on the mic lets you cut unnecessary lows, but most importantly, it helps you remove low-end rumble\/bleed coming from the kick and toms. That way you essentially have a scope aimed at the hi-hat and hi-hat only.<\/p>\n<p>Having a pad on the microphone helps as well. By nature, drums are super loud, and the hi-hat is no exception. Most of the kit is going to be miked with dynamic microphones able to withstand high sound pressure levels. But we&#8217;re using a more sensitive condenser to capture the right amount of detail from the hi-hat, so a pad is an extra layer of protection against overloading and distorting the mic.<\/p>\n<h3>Hi-Hat Mic Placement Tips<\/h3>\n<p>Typical placement has the mic pointed down at a slightly off-axis angle near one of the outer edges of the hi-hat. The mic should be aimed away from the snare and the rest of the kit to minimize bleed. Try to find the hi-hat&#8217;s sweet spot if you can, and point the mic there. Also just make sure that it&#8217;s out of the drummer&#8217;s way and doesn&#8217;t risk being hit by a stick.<\/p>\n<p>Moving the mic towards the inner bell tightens up the sound, but you may have to raise the microphone higher if the drummer hits hard. One final tip is to not point the mic parallel to the hi-hat near the outer edge. There&#8217;s quite a bit of air that &#8220;swooshes&#8221; out when the cymbals open and close, and could potentially damage the microphone.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/how-to-record-drums\/\">How to Record Drums in 5 Easy Steps<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>RELATED:<\/strong>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/recording-drums-with-one-microphone-techniques\/\">Techniques for Recording Drums with One Microphone<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>The 6 Best Hi-Hat Mics for Your Studio<\/h2>\n<h3>1. <a href=\"https:\/\/imp.i114863.net\/AoOvVR\">Neumann KM184<\/a><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-55240 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/producelikeapro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Whats-the-Best-Microphone-for-Hi-Hats-2022-Guide_2.jpg\" alt=\"What\u2019s the Best Microphone for Hi-Hats?
