Product Overview

The Shure AP56DM is a drum mount that attaches a PGA56 microphone directly to a drum rim without a separate mic stand. It is the factory-matched mounting accessory for engineers and AV teams close-miking snares and toms in live sound, houses of worship, and broadcast settings. By clamping to the rim, it frees up stage space and keeps microphone placement consistent.

Product Description

Close-miking a drum kit with stands is space-consuming and prone to drift as drummers play, which is why a rim-mount clamp is the standard solution for snare and tom microphones. The AP56DM attaches a PGA56 dynamic instrument microphone directly to the drum rim, holding the capsule in a repeatable position close to the head. For AV teams supporting live performance spaces, worship platforms, and multi-purpose rooms, rim mounts reduce stage clutter and speed up changeovers. As a genuine Shure accessory, it ensures correct fit and secure clamping for the PGA56.

Key Features

  • PGA56 Compatibility — The mount is designed specifically for the PGA56 microphone, ensuring correct fit and secure clamping.
  • Stand-Free Mounting — It attaches directly to a drum rim, eliminating the need for a separate microphone stand.
  • Consistent Placement — The rim clamp holds the capsule in a repeatable position close to the drum head.
  • Reduced Stage Clutter — Removing stands frees up stage space and speeds changeovers in live and worship settings.
  • Genuine Shure Accessory — As the factory part, it restores or spares the mounting hardware for a PGA56.
