Floor/Stand Vibrations
« on: April 13, 2003, 03:32:27 PM »
I have done the last several tapes of mine at the same venue.  Where I set up is on a raised floor.  I have noticed that sometimes when people come down the stairs from the bar or they stomp the floor, it will run straight up my stand and the mics pick it up.  Just curious what you guys do to stop this.  I was thinking maybe getting some foam or crutch tips to put on the legs of my stand.

I have a shockmount for the rigid T-bar I have but not for the flexible one I have been using in this paticular club.

I'll have to do some thinking on how to do it.  The shockmount works fine with the 'arms' of the t-bar straight out to the sides.  But when I bend it around to run DIN, NOS...it gets to heavy in the front and the bands won't support it and it droops down.  Hard to explain...let me try and get my gfs camera and take some pics.

Keep in mind that the mics I'm using are very small and won't fit individually in a shock mount.  The shock mount I have holds my t-bar.

what mics are you using? I use the schoeps cmc5 bodies, which are not very big at all either.
