Topic: Clamps for Studio Projects C4?

Any recommendations for clamps for SP-C4?
Thanks,

Jeff

Are you looking for clamps or shockmounts?  The mics should have come with shockmounts.  If you want to upgrade, the AT8410 are pretty much standard.  For a true clamp, the bogen super clamp is the way to go.  Do a search for more info on both.

   Thanks...I'm fresh meat, so I apologize if I'm not getting the terminology down. I want to clamp the SP-C4's to a railing and the Bogen Super Clamp looks like overkill. I just don't want to buy some clamps and then find out they won't accomodate the mics.

This is the clamp I have, and it's perfect for pretty much any situation. Highly recommended...

i have this one and the small rowi one,a nd i have been using this one more and more

on a side note: if the cheap plastic thing comes off the end you actually screw onto the stan/railing/whatever, try taking a bicycle cap and screwing it on their, i GUARANTEE that bitch wont come off again, its worked like a charm since i put the bike cap on too

give it a try

My plastic thingy broke off the first time i used it. I've been using it without a cap. I might try the bicycle tire cap thing though.

Yeah, it does dig in pretty good without that plastic cap on there.

plastic cap -- the "big one" would be the same size as a car tire's valve cap (a schrader valve), while the small one would be a lot smaller (closer in size to a male 1/8" stereo jack) and would cover a valve with a fitting you'd need to unscrew before filling up the bike tire (a presta valve)

That help?  I'm betting it'd be the "big" one

[F.O.Bean]

i wish i knew, i can measure, lemme see

the cap is: a wee bit less than 3/8 in diameter

[F.O.Bean]

anybody try that bike cap thing
