Magnetic excitations (magnons) hosted in a solid can couple to mechanical vibrations of the material (phonons) via a radiation-pressure like interaction due to magneto-elastic effects. When the magnet is loaded on a microwave cavity, phonons can be driven and measured via the microwave while having the tunability of the magnetic excitations. Nevertheless, the noise added to mechanics can hinders both potential applications of the system at the quantum level and measurements of the phonon mode. Here, we propose a scheme to evade quantum backaction on a phonon mode of a cavity magnomechanical system by using a two-tone microwave drive. We study the robustness of the different possible backaction evading schemes, and show that measurements of the phonon mode can be performed with added noise below the standard quantum limit.
