Detail 01
Shockmount (suspension cradle)
The mic floats in elastic bands instead of bolting to the stand, so vibration through the stand does not reach the capsule.

GibraltarMicrophone Shockmount
Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Elastic-suspension shockmount for a drum or instrument mic. For kit players who want to stop stand and floor rumble reaching a close mic.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Close-miking a snare or tom on a boomy stage
- Home kit recording where the mic stand touches the drum riser
- Cheap insurance against handling thumps on an existing mic
Consider the trade-offs
When to look elsewhere
- Players needing a mount sized to a specific mic body
- Anyone wanting a clip that grips a drum hoop directly
- Setups with no low-end rumble problem to solve
What matters in use
The specifications, translated
Catalog numbers tell only part of the story. These are the details most likely to change how this product feels, sounds, or fits into a setup.
Detail 02
Drum-focused design
Aimed at close-mic positions on a kit, where kick and floor tom energy travels up the stand as low thump.
Detail 03
Elastic band suspension
Bands are the wear item. They stretch over time and go slack, which loosens the mic and reduces isolation.
Detail 04
Under $10
Priced as a consumable accessory, not a studio fixture. Expect basic plastic and hardware, not machined metal.
Final check
Know before you order
- 01No microphone included. This holds a mic you already own.
- 02Check your mic body diameter fits the cradle before ordering.
- 03Standard stand threads may need a 5/8 to 3/8 adapter you supply.
Product questions
Before you decide
Straight answers to the questions shoppers most often ask about this product.
01Does this come with a microphone?
No. It is a mount only. You supply the mic.
02Will it fit my microphone?
It suspends standard mic bodies in elastic bands. Measure your mic's barrel diameter against the cradle opening before buying, since fit varies by mic.
03Does it actually reduce noise?
It reduces mechanical vibration reaching the mic through the stand, such as floor thump and stand bumps. It does not reduce room noise or bleed from other drums.
04Can I use it for vocals or guitar amps?
Yes. Nothing about the suspension is drum-specific. Any mic that fits the cradle benefits from the isolation.
