I listened to a friends recording of acoustic guitar with two Lauten Atlantis FC387's in mid/side and was really impressed with how they sounded.
I was wondering whether anybody owns a pair and has used them as drum overheads?

I found this clip online with the Atlantis used as overheads. They snare sounds flat to me, with not a lot of punch. Could be the snare, could be the mics.
Any opinions?

Recorded through plugins, for that polished flattened sound! You want lifeless? We'll give you lifeless!

My original impression of the snare sound was that it sounded like something I could get with Superior Drummer. It's too bad nobody seems to own this mic to give an impression of it. It really sounds great on acoustic guitar with two mics mid/side. My concern is that it's a little dark and not quick enough to capture the transients of the snare for overheads. |

Michael Wagner loves it for rock vocals, and you can't argue with the results he gets with it. Through a Chandler TG2. |

My dealer gave me this demo of the Atlantis being used as overheads. If any drummers want to comment your opinion would be appreciated.

Well, swurveman, I'm a pretty mediocre drummer at best... but I have recorded a helluva lot of drums and those ROCK! So clearly, the microphones are doing their job in capturing killer tone! |

Yes, I agree. I originally heard this as one of three pairs of mics in a shootout where they didn't give the results. One set was duller than others and I feared it was the Atlantis. However, I was pleasantly surprised to hear how good these sounded. |
