Integrated Shock-mounts For Kick Drum Microphones Are Suspending Use Of The Common Boom Stand.

April 14, 2009 - PRLog -- Kelly Concepts, LLC of Lincoln Nebraska has introduced an integrated shock-mount isolation system for kick drum microphones which is suspended on a series of solid rubber cords either within the drum shell or externally on the front of the drum. The system’s main mounting unit is shaped like a horseshoe inspiring its trade name, The Kelly SHU™. While providing all the benefits of a specialized shock-mount isolation platform, The Kelly SHU™ system also promises to save valuable stage space while reducing set-up times and offering consistent microphone placement from show to show. The system utilizes a bass drum’s already existing tuning hardware as a framework for the rubber isolation cords, therefore no drilling or drum shell modifications are required for installation.

The Kelly SHU™ has been proven by some of the top audio professionals in the industry and has provided amazing results for touring drummers as well as regional musicians, smaller venues, recording studios, drum rental houses and places of worship alike. “What a fantastic idea The Kelly SHU™ is.” claims Big Mick Hughes, Front-Of-House Engineer for Metallica. “Does exactly what it says on the tin and allows you to position the mic just where you want it. All that without the use of a stand. Perfect!!!!!” Bryan Hitt, drummer with REO Speedwagon said, “Rarely does a product exceed one’s expectations. The Kelly SHU™ is quite simply the least expensive and best kick mic holder I’ve ever used.”

Kelly Concepts LLC, offers two different series of the product to fit any level of use and spending budget. The Kelly SHU Pro™ series’ main mounting unit is machined from a solid piece of #303 aluminum stock while the economical Kelly SHU Composite™ series is injection molded from high-density, fiberglass reinforced polymers. Both series provide the same elastomer suspension system and components, offering reliable support for most any commonly used kick drum microphone which is designed to fit on a conventional mic stand.

The Kelly SHU™ system will revolutionize the way you approach the positioning and support of your kick drum microphones.

As put by one local sound engineer,”It’s about time somebody does it differently.”
