Designed for both live performance and studio recording, the PGA56 features a tailored cartridge design that captures the natural sound of percussion with clarity and impact.
Its cardioid polar pattern provides focused pickup of the sound source while rejecting unwanted stage noise. A swivel joint with quick-release latch, inspired by bicycle component locking technology, allows for fast, precise positioning. The included drum mount eliminates the need for a separate stand, making setup quick and efficient.
