General Description

The Shure A56D mounts microphones on a drum or cymbal. It fits stand adapters with a 5/8-in, 27-thread. An L-adapter extension curves at a 90 angle for optimum microphone placement.

The clamp fits drum rims measuring from 1/2-in. (12.7 mm) to 2 /4 -in. (57.2 mm) in height, or on cymbal stands measuring from 3/8-in. (9.5 mm) to 1 1/8-in. (28.6 mm) in diameter.

NOTE: To minimize potential noise or damage, position the microphone outside the drummer’s range of stick movement and cymbal movement.
