CrashGuard™ Mic Shield |
|
The CrashGuard™ is a unique sound-shielding device that isolates the drum microphone to attenuate the sound of cymbals during the recording process. This reduces interference between the two sources, enabling greater control over the drum’s sound. Compact and lightweight, the CrashGuard™ is designed to fit the most popular drum microphones, and mounts directly on the boom stand using the microphone’s clip to hold it in place. The high-impact ABS construction is tough enough to withstand the hit of a drumstick by even the most aggressive drummer. To maintain the microphone performance, the under-belly is fully coated on the inside with high-density open-cell foam to absorb internal reflections and reduce phase cancellation. The innovative design features an extended cable cutout that allows the microphone to be articulated for precise placement, further optimizing the performance. Once in place, it surrounds the microphone with a sonic barrier, and more of the drum can be captured by reducing the spill from the cymbals. This enables the engineer to add EQ to the drum, such as increasing the high end for more attacks without accentuating the sound of the cymbal. The engineer enjoys greater balance over each sound on close proximity sources such as the high hat and snare. The CrashGuard™ is an easy-to-use instrument shield designed to control the spill of cymbals entering the drum for greater control during the recording process. |
