AKG Session 1 Drum Mics! (Link below⬇)

The AKG Session I is the most affordable kit in my shootout, and it’s where I start the comparison. It’s a simple, practical way to mic up a full drum set at home with a kick, snare, tom mics, and overheads included.

Pros

+Most budget-friendly option in the lineup
+Complete 7-mic setup for full-kit recording

Cons

-May not match the premium detail of higher-priced kits
