(pro-)audio/recording folks, any tips for best capturing muffled, diffused low-end sounds? certain mikes, certain settings you would recommend?

we've got a zoom, but are not sure if it will faithfully recreate the sound—we've got a stomper living above us. they did not react well to our suggestion to invest in some slippers with rubber soles for € 5 tops, so now between 11pm and half past midnight, they are doing some extra rounds in their apartment.

@konkrit free solution: tape the zoom to your ceiling. that way it’ll definitely pick up the stomping because the vibrations will travel through its body.
@hagen might be difficult because it's an old factory building so it's all exposed brick walls, but thanks—love any excuse to buy some gaffa and will try it out!
@konkrit if that doesn’t work i can lend you a sensitive mic that should pick up everything.
@hagen  thank you! anything helps at this point, i'll be in touch if everything else fails.
