The Primacoustic CG421 CrashGuard is a drum microphone shield for the Sennheiser MD 421 and is designed to help improve your mixes by giving you greater control over the sound of the snare and toms with less bleed from the cymbals.
The Primacoustic CG421 CrashGuard is a unique sound-shielding device that prevents bleed from cymbals and other sounds from entering the drum microphone. Once in place, the Primacoustic CrashGuard CG421 surrounds the microphone with a sonic barrier. By reducing the spill from the cymbals, more of the drum sound can be captured. This makes it easier for the engineer to add EQ or increase level without accentuating the sound of the cymbal. The CrashGuard is perfectly matched to the Sennheiser MD 421. It easily mounts to the boom stand using the microphone’s clip to hold it in place, with the CG421 providing two different mounting positions for easier positioning of larger microphones. Constructed from high impact ABS, the Primacoustic CG421 CrashGuard is tough enough to withstand the hit of a drumstick by even the most aggressive drummer, making it not only ideal for acoustic isolation but also for microphone protection! To ensure that microphone performance is maintained, the under-belly is fully covered with high-density open cell foam to absorb internal reflections and reduce phase cancellation. The innovative design also features an extended cable cutout that allows the microphone to be articulated for precise placement, further optimizing the performance.
