Devices that allow one or more objects to be quickly and easily attached to a musical device are described. In one embodiment, a spring-enabled mounting device is disclosed that allows a device such as a microphone to be removably attached to a musical instrument, such as a drum. The apparatus may be operable via the use of a single hand applying forces to manipulate one or more springs within the apparatus, thus allowing for convenient and timely attachment, removal, and/or repositioning of the object, such as a microphone, with respect to the instrument.

1. A mounting device for attachment to a musical instrument, said mounting device comprising: a body comprising a first clamping portion and shaped to define a body aperture;a clamp comprising a second clamping portion, said clamp slidably mounted at least partially within said body aperture and shaped to define a clamp aperture;a spring at least partially within said body aperture and at least partially within said clamp aperture;wherein said spring is anchored by a first rod at or near the bottom of said body aperture and a second rod at or near the top of said clamp aperture. 2. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said spring is an extension spring. 3. The mounting device of claim 2, wherein said device is configured such that the resting position of said spring is in tension. 4. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said clamp is shaped to define a guide; wherein said clamp is slidable within said body aperture such that said first rod is movable within and relative to said guide. 5. The mounting device of claim 1, further comprising a button at a bottom of said clamp; wherein a user can move said clamp within said body aperture by applying a force to said button. 6. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said body is shaped to define a side recess, and further comprising; a second spring within said side recess, wherein said second spring is a compression spring;a side button at least partially within said side recess and configured to abut said second spring;wherein said side button is slidably movable within said side recess so as to compress said spring. 7. The mounting device of claim 6, wherein said body is shaped to define a second aperture and said side button is shaped to define a through-hole; wherein said mounting device is configured such that said second aperture and said through-hole can be at least partially aligned upon the movement of said side button into said side recess by a first distance. 8. The mounting device of claim 7, wherein said second aperture and said through-hole are approximately vertical. 9. The mounting device of claim 8, wherein said mounting device is configured to hold an object between sidewalls of said second aperture and said through-hole. 10. The mounting device of claim 9, wherein said mounting device is configured to release said object upon a first pressure being applied to said side button such that said side button moves further into said side recess. 11. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said mounting device is configured to hold a drum hoop between said first and second clamping portions. 12. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein one or both of said first and second clamping portions comprises an inner surface comprising an indentation or a projection. 13. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein one or both of said first and second clamping portions is generally hook-shaped. 14. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said second clamping device comprises a stop which prevents downward movement of said clamp. 15. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said second clamping portion extends further than said first clamping portion. 16. The mounting device of claim 1, wherein said second clamping portion is above said first clamping portion. 17. A device for attaching an object to a drum hoop, said device comprising: a body comprising a rear chamber, said body shaped to define a substantially vertical front channel and a substantially vertical rear aperture, and said rear chamber shaped to define a substantially horizontal side recess;a clamp vertically movable within said front channel; anda side button shaped to define a substantially vertical through-hole, said side button horizontally movable within said side recess so as to at least partially align said rear aperture and said through-hole. 18. The device of claim 17, further comprising a compression spring in said side recess and between said side button and said body. 19. The device of claim 18, wherein said clamp comprises a substantially vertical chamber, and wherein said device further comprises an extension spring within said substantially vertical chamber.
