The CrashGuard™ and CrashGuard 421™ are drum microphone shields

designed to isolate the drum and reduce the spill from nearby cymbals.

This allows the engineer to increase the attack of the drum without the

cymbals becoming overly present.

Made from high-impact ABS, the light-weight CrashGuard attaches to the

boom arm and is held in place using the microphone’s clip. The inside or

underbelly of the CrashGuard is completely lined with high-density open

cell acoustic foam to reduce internal reflections. The innovative design

features a cable access port that allows the microphone to be articulated

for optimum placement.

The CrashGuard has been tested for fit with many major brands of

instrument microphones. The CrashGuard 421 has been specially

designed to fit the classic Sennheiser MD421 microphone.
