An acrylic shield that makes a big difference

When recording sound using the overdub method, crosstalk from neighbouring sound sources is usually not a problem. However, if all artists are recorded simultaneously, unwanted crosstalk between neighbouring sound sources can occur, especially in smaller recording rooms. One of the instruments that always stands out in this context is the drums. The DS4-5 Drum Shield from t.akustik is an adequate solution to this dilemma and at the same time offers the advantage that the transparency of the acrylic allows eye contact between the artists.

Easy to handle

The DS4-5 Drum Shield consists of five individual panels that are joined together with the corresponding connectors (hinges). Once the panels are connected to each other, handling is very simple. To make the DS4-5 Drum Shield portable, the panels fold together in an accordion style, and conversely, they are folded out again during setup - so everything works very easily. Each panel is 120 cm high, 60 cm wide, and 5.5 mm thick. When assembled, the DS4-5 Drum Shield has a length of 300 cm. When folded and with a total weight of about 26 kg, it can just about be carried under your arm.

For sound engineers and instrumentalists

Technicians in the studio are by no means the only people who want to shield certain sound sources. There are also situations during live shows where shielding can come in handy, and it can also be put to adequate use in the rehearsal room. The DS4-5 Drum Shield from t.akustik is a transparent acrylic screen that offers reliable sound shielding in every situation and can thus ensure effective volume control. Thanks to its very reasonable purchase price, it offers both professional and semi-professional users attractive value for money.

About t.akustik

t.akustik has been part of the Thomann portfolio since 1997 and has established a solid reputation through its quality products at affordable prices. The brand specialises in all items that optimise the acoustics of recording studios, or any room in which music is to be recorded, by neutralising possible interferences as much as possible. So, if you need absorbers, sound diffusers, bass traps, and much more, t.akustik's extensive range is definitely worth checking out.

For the stage, studio, and rehearsal room

Even if the DS4-5 Drum Shield's name already indicates its preferred area of use, it is also suitable for shielding amplifiers and other instruments, a job that it does just as well. Apart from the professional areas of use on stage and in the studio, the DS4-5 Drum Shield can of course also be a great asset in private use. After all, the volume in small rehearsal rooms can be deafening, so even the smallest amount of damping is an improvement to the situation. In short: Your ears will thank you.

Works well, but fiendish to assemble.

3rdElder 04.12.2023

A nice five panel four foot drum screen. Its allowed us to control the drum volume on stage (in a church), without going to a full height or a complete booth. Its not too heavy when assembled, and two people can move it around with ease.
However it was extremely difficult to assemle - the joining flexy strips would only slide on on some panels and not on others.... the Instructions suggest a rubber hammer is needed ... and it was. But the final result is good, no question.
Maybe the assembly would geat easier after three or four repeats... maybe.

Unverschämt teuer aber gut

Michael_B 12.04.2021

Augenscheinlich handelt es sich nur um einfache Plastikscheiben. Keine Ahnung warum die so teuer sind. Scheiben sind unfassbar schwer, müssen zu zweit getragen werden. Funktioniert sehr gut (vermutlich weil sie doch aus speziellem Kunststoff und so schwer sind und). Unseren Tonmann freut es und meine Bandmitglieder auch. Manche Toningenieure (externe) tun sich damit schwer ("sowas kommt mir nicht auf die Bühne") aber es räumt den Mix auf jeden Fall auf. Wir verwenden es so oft wi wir können.

Bastante bien para este precio

Enrique Bernal 30.09.2022

No he probado otros escudos porque siempre me han parecido muy caros pero este tiene un precio razonable y me he decidido a probarlo.

El montaje: si pones los paneles en vertical y acoplas la bisagra a dos paneles a la vez (no primero uno y luego el otro), ayudado por un martillo de goma o semejante, lo montas en 15 min.

La altura es la correcta, creía que el crash quedaría por fuera pero no, lo alcanza.

No te va a quitar mucho volumen de sonido pero sí la pegada más fuerte para músicos que estén a pocos metros.

En definitiva, por un precio razonable tienes una protección para hacer los ensayos más cómodos para todos.

Sehr gut!

Nobody Knows 16.04.2020

Bin viel unterwegs.... Auf Stadtfesten, Festivals etc. Doch es gibt Locations, wie bspw. Theater wo solche Wand sehr angebracht ist. Das schlagzeug ist abgeschirmt und wummert nicht mehr durch den ganzen Saal. Man hat bessere Kontrolle über das Monitoring und ein sicheres Spielgefühl
