Drum Shields - Pro Sound
Pro Sound are Australia's largest supplier of the highest quality Australian made acrylic acoustic drum shields, supplying a diverse range of professional acoustic shields required for on-stage sound management.
In the current high tech era, the science of live sound has grown prodigiously with advances in mic, speaker, monitoring, and PA technology. Backline amplification has shrunk as sound reinforcement has grown exponentially.
This has led to a need to reduce the drummer's volume on stage on many venues, tours, bands, etc., without stifling his/her creativity and energy. Hence, audio prophylaxis for the drum set. To a sound tech's delight an assembled shield - made of clear acrylic panels - substantially isolates the drums acoustically from the other instruments.
We supply Australia's strongest drum shields with the most heavy-duty chemically fused flex-fold hinges with the highest quality transparent flex-compound. Our shields suit any professional application no matter how big or small. The benefits of installing a Pro Sound drum shield are the following:
- Blocks the primary acoustic energy from drummer to band and audience
- 6.5mm acrylic thickness provides a broader frequency range barrier (Other shields only 4mm thickness)
- The highest quality Astari-Glass Acrylic provides a crystal clear visual for stage communication
- The strongest flat folding hinges (Flex-fold) in the global market, permanently fused to the acrylic
- Greatly improves FOH clarity and mix
- Lightweight and packs flat for the road
- Optional soft case for on the road
- 3 Year Warranty
