Shure SM57 Dynamic Instrument Microphone

The Shure SM57’s ability to get great results in any scenario has secured its place as the quintessential instrument mic.

It translates the power of seriously loud instruments to your recordings, handling intense sound pressure levels without distorting. When you place it in front of a snare drum, its popularity will make sense. That’s the sound you’ve loved on countless albums. Loud and clear.

This is in part thanks to the mic’s contoured frequency response, which sounds rounded and natural. A gentle presence boost at 4kHz imparts extra clarity to your sound source. You’ll capture the authentic sound of your instrument. All you have to do is point the mic and hit record.

The SM57's cardioid polar pattern focuses on the sound in front of it, rejecting feedback and ambient noise. Minimum spill means maximum clarity and punch. Thanks to its super sturdy construction, there’s no chance of stray drum hits damaging the mic.

Beta 52A Bass Drum Microphone

The Beta 52A is powerhouse kick drum microphone that is revered amongst engineers and producers. Thanks to a premium capsule housed inside a bulletproof metal enclosure, the 52A sounds as formidable as it looks.

Boasting more depth than your average kick mic, the Beta has been fine tuned to harness super-low sub frequencies. As well as that all-important midrange punch. Combined with a gentle top end boost, you'll get fully formed drum tones immediately. There's no need to wrestle with EQ, which is why you'll see the Beta in studios and venues worldwide. It's the mic to reach for when you want the right kick sound - fast.

A56D Universal Drum Mounting System

Microphone placement made easy. The Shure A56D Microphone Drum Mount Clip lets you mic up your drum kit with maximum efficiency, without the hassle of cumbersome mic stands.

The adjustable clamp securely fixes straight onto drum rims or cymbal stands. The L-rod holds your microphone clip, and can be swivelled then locked into position with ease. Precisely setting the distance from mic to drum only takes a few seconds.

Made from super sturdy, high-quality components, the A56D is as reliable as it gets. Once in place, it won't budge. What's more, it will dramatically reduce stand clutter onstage or in the studio.
