Shure DMK57 52

The DMK57-52 is Shure's ready-made drum microphone kit, pairing the mics most engineers reach for on a kit into one case. Three SM57 cardioid dynamics handle the snare and toms, the same workhorse capsule trusted on countless stages, while a single Beta 52A supercardioid dynamic sits inside the kick to capture low-end punch without boom. It is a complete starting point for close-miking a drum kit in a club, a rehearsal room, or a house of worship.

Three A56D universal drum mounts clamp the SM57s to rims so you skip the forest of extra stands, and everything travels in the included carrying case. The SM57 covers 40-15,000 Hz for crack and body on snare and toms; the Beta 52A runs 20-10,000 Hz, tuned for the weight and attack of a bass drum.
