Long-Overdue Purchase

Anonymous 06.04.2016

I have a set of Samson drum mics, previously purchased from Thomann, which are excellent for the money and which I use for live gigs. They have their own integral clips and I think they are an excellent purchase for the money; and whilst the integral clips are a great idea, I wanted the facility to use other mics. As yet, I do not own any top-name, specialised tom mics; but I would like to try mics like SM57s and Audix i-5s on tom duties; these clips will allow me to do that.

I read the reviews for the T-Bone drum clips, which were good, and decided it would be pointless for me to spend more than the price of this brand, given that my Samson set is normally used for live sound duties and I only need drum clips for home studio work.

The clips look great! They seem strong enough to handle operations, with due care. They also come with an clip thread adapter so you can choose what you need for each individual microphone.

Before you purchase, make certain you have accounted for how many clips you will need. Generally, you will want one for the snare mic and one for each tom mic. I bought three clips, which is one short of what I actually need but I can get around the problem by using a mic stand on one, which is a little silly, since the whole point of having drum clips is to dispense with having too many mic stands around the drummer. I'll will order another when I next buy from Thomann.

Recommended.

Didn't Work For My Needs

wide eyes 16.10.2021

Good build quality, and it's extremely affordable, which is great, but it didn't work for my needs. The rubber mounting pads were not very stable or secure on my mid-level Pearl kit. As I tighten it up, it actually causes the clamp to slide up and dismount from the rim. And even when you get it to stay mounted, the angle/position of the mic brings it way too far into the center of the drum to be useful (at least with SM 57 sized microphone). I would choose t.bone's other rim clamp over this one, personally.

Good general mic support (snares and toms)

ipais 28.10.2019

This is a good product for it's value. I've been using it for both snare and toms' micking.
There are 2 points that I don't like so much: not so easy to attach to the drum rim, because the rubber attachment is a little bit too large; there is no option to adjust the inclination on the drum (harder to set the mic further in the skin, mainly on smaller sized heads/drums).
As a conclusion: it works quite well for its job and at a very cheap price.

It copes well with its task, but there is a nuance long sm 57 microphones on this mount will be located very close to the center of the drum, there is no possibility to adjust it. With this arrangement, there is a high probability that the drummer will hit the microphone with a drum stick. So choose small microphones for this mount.

Great Mic Holders

Anonymous 04.05.2015

Recently my band purchased a set of Drum mics T Bone DC 1200.
We found the little plastic clips you get with the mics broke after a couple of uses, So we purchased some of these, great cheap alternative to the more expensive brands. used on a few gigs now and never had an issue with them. Hold the mics in place brilliantly even with our erratic drummer beating his kit, rubber pads to stop marking or damaging the drums had to have a bit of superglue on them as they came off, but this is a brilliant cheap piece of kit that will do the job just as well as the more expensive types.

Not the best design

ignasiv 31.01.2020

The price of the product is great compared to alternatives, however, I have to say that you should be careful when buying it, because you have to keep in mind to things:
1. It's quite large clip. If you have average or large size mics, and average or small size drums, these clips will be too large for you as the mic will cover too much drum.
2. It's not very sturdy. Hitting on it with a stick mind result in moving the clip around the rim, which shouldn't happen with, for example, SRM 2 model.

Cheap and useful

Magnus F. 29.01.2014

With the normal mic holders for drums I often have problems with toms with floating mouting. This simple mic solves that problem, as it mounts to the top of the rim. The downside is that the rubber arm isn't sturdy enough if you want to mount a SM57, but for low weight drum mics it's perfect!

Built well but not user friendly.

Lou386 14.10.2022

These clips are definitely priced right and feel quite solid. However, I could not get them to clamp to the rim of the drum in any usable way. As you tighten the clamp, it forces the whole thing towards the center of the drum. Maybe they would work better for certain percussion instruments?

mixed thoughts

Anonymous 26.09.2016

I have used these clips for around 8 years having had them originally with a set of T Bone drum mics.

The plastic sheathing on the clips is prone to working loose and the remaining metal is like a sharp blade that over time has cut into the rim of my bass drum (nothing significant but frustrating all the same).

The thread on one of the joining bolts also lost its thread forcing me to replace one.

On a good note, they hold the mics in a nice position and are not too evasive to the drum area. The also clip the cable behind nicely to stop straggling cables hanging in unwanted positions.

All in all, an ok product. I suppose you get what you pay for.
