Title: DPA 406x/407x shockmount ideas?
Post by: pfife on March 30, 2005, 09:26:51 AM

Anyone got any ideas on making shockmounts for DPA miniature mics?  I'm pretty sure its going to be a DIY project, and I just want to see if anyone has done such a thing before, so I can totally steal their idea... lol

keep in mind that omnis aren't as prone to handling noise as cards are.

IOW, shockmounts might not be necessary?

I have been thinking of a dowel in a 'lux shockmount (or a regular mic clip).   Drill holes in the dowel for the mics to fit into.  I did find a cool pic of someone using a small football for HRTF... I'll prolly do that!


thanks Moke +t
