In my opinion, this is the best bass drum microphone! While you can always use an EQ, it's not necessary here, especially in rock and metal. The attack sound is achieved through proper aiming, and the punch is achieved through proper placement. I've had the best experiences with this microphone on the bass drum, roughly halfway between the beater and the rim, about the width of a hand away from the head (not the resonant head). The position needs to be adjusted depending on the bass drum. My buying tip!
