i ran into a situation yesterday where i almost had to compromise audio quality for mic placement, on a snare drum, thankfully it was an almost. but that made me realize the studio doesn't have an adjustable mic clip, that takes the typical mic clip thread. it'd be great to have one in case...

anyone got some suggestions?

My apologies if this is a stupid question, or already answered many times -I am not sure what exactly to search for. I have a handheld recorder that came with two wired clip-on microphones, intended for interviews. They work perfectly with the recorder. However, when I plug these microphones into a mixer/amplifer (Behringer PMP5000) they don't work at all.

Hi,

I'm looking to add either a Neumann TLM102, Audio-Technica 4047 or CAD E100S to my mic collection and am torn on which to buy.

No idea where to put this thread... :/

I'd like to see some discussion/point of reference about those screw threads on the end of mic stands which you attach mic clips to.

Mainly,
What are they known as?
What sizes do they come in?
Are there standards?
What about the history?

I'm getting tired of several of my cheap/makeshift stands - particularly those I'm using for Micing drums. I have good stands for overheads and vocal mics, but most of the stands for getting into hard to reach places and old cheap stands that I've hacksawed and jerry-rigged. Time to buy something good and sturdy.

i have an Audix f90 that i'm not terribly happy with. except that i love how tiny it is. i want a different sound though.

is it a thing with small microphones like this? or are there other clip on condensers that do sound better? the f90 lacks high end definition, it's too "smooth".

Is it a good idea to use mic clips on drums for the recording?

I think i will go with Audix D-vice, but take a look at these ones... they are kind of cheap.

I've just purchased a DPA UA0837 stereo boom - the one without the mic clips. Now, I didn't know this beforehand, but the sliders on the boom are designed to hold mic clips with a narrow thread (a la the DPA clips)... . The problem is that the sliders have a kind of groove that ensures that only clips with a very narrow base will fit there.

I have a C414 B-ULS that I've had for a while and I both another (came today) with the hope that they'd be close enough to use as a pair.e came The first one came with a SA 18/3B mic clip. The second came with an H-100 shock mount. So I thought I'd see what another clip cost - WOW - $200 and your first born male child. (Tough luck George Rogers.)
