Lyre Percussion Instruments

This is a work horse mic used by every sound engineer to record any type of instruments:brass, percussion, etc.

I own both a Rycote Windshield Kit 4 and Kit 2. The only improvement I would recommend making is to order an optional stiffer Rycote Grey 82 Lyre Upgrade Set--Part #042216--and install one Grey Lyre on the front side of the suspension mount while using a Black 72 Lyre on the back of the suspension mount (or replace both black lyres with grey lyres if you see fit). The grey and black lyre combination works exceptionally well with the Sennheiser MKH-50 in reducing some of the potential handling noise prone to all MKH-50s. It also works great with my Rycote Windshield 4 Kit housing a Schoeps cmit5u. I know everything boils down to personal preference, but for me, running a Grey 82 lyre in the front and a Black 72 lyre in the rear of the suspension mount is a winning combination for both isolation and feel.

the E-Percussion Module Mount by Alesis is the perfect part i was looking for....

Great for Vocal and Instruments!

Great replacement lamp for all of our instruments.

Haven't used them yet , but am sure they will securely hold my instruments down .

What else can be said about the 57? Instruments, vocals, everything.

I can finally hear the voices on documentaries. The foreground music and drama percussion would drown it out.

I am using this mic for vocals and handheld percussion. It is fantastic. But be careful not to overdrive it, as it is very sensitive.

I use for orchestra percussion overhead and that do a great job bringing in everything from xylophone to triangle
