Using pressure gradient (directional) microphones
calls for more attention to suppressing vibrations from the microphone.
The SM1500 is a double pole construction on an adjustable mic stand base. Both
omnidirectional and directional microphones � compact as well as larger � fit
this line.
Based on the Rycote� Lyre� suspension system almost any microphone can be used
simply by adding another Lyre� rubber piece. The lighter the microphone, the
softer the rubber should be.
The SM1500 shock mount design is extremely flexible, the holders can be mounted
facing both upside and downside and the poles can be adjusted by pushing them
forth and back.
