Tailored for Tabla and Classical Percussion

The 5 Core Tabla Mic 2XP COPPEREX set provides dedicated microphones for Dayan and Bayan drums, plus suitability for Dholak and Mridangam. Moving coil dynamic elements with uni-directional polar patterns capture authentic tonal richness for stage, temple, classroom or studio use.

Check Connector and Input Impedance Compatibility

Verify that your mixer or audio interface accepts the Dayan output impedance of 400 ohms and the Bayan output impedance of 500 ohms. Ensure you have two available channels with appropriate gain range for the stated sensitivity of minus 49 dB and matching connectors for the microphones.

Dynamic Elements Handle High SPL Without Phantom

Moving coil dynamic capsules operate without external power and tolerate loud percussion transients. Uni-directional pickup and feedback rejection reduce stage bleed and monitor squeal. Copper-finish metal construction withstands regular transport and live performance demands.

Questions about this item

Does the set include both the Dayan and Bayan microphones, or do I need to buy them separately?

The set includes both microphones — one tailored for the Dayan and one for the Bayan — so nothing extra is required for a complete tabla pickup.

How do I decide between the Dayan and Bayan versions when ordering?

You do not choose between them; the package supplies one Dayan mic with a 50 Hz–16 kHz response and one Bayan mic with a 50 Hz–14 kHz response, each built for its respective drum.

What does the 50 Hz–16 kHz frequency range on the Dayan microphone mean when I plug it into a mixer?

It means the Dayan mic will reproduce the full tonal span of the drum, from deep bass tones at 50 Hz up to the bright attack detail at 16 kHz, through any standard 400 Ω input.
