Right now I have the shure shockmounts and they seem too fit in too loose.....anyone have any suggestions for what is working for them with these mics?

Governor Jim McGreevey was equally disturbed about the upcoming population increase. "New Jersey cannot support all of these wookies," he said. "For starters, we don't have nearly enough kindbud. At best, we can muster up a Q.P. of some beasties, but we've not a dime-bag more."

at 8410s and 8415s both seem to work well.

Thanks for the replies. How low profile are the AT mounts? Right now I'm using the shure's and have a couple of o-rings on the mics and this stops them from sliding out. I'd like to get something more permanent. I'll have to take a look at the AT's.

The AT's are most definitely not low pro.

As an alternative, you could wrap your bodies a couple times around with some gaffer's tape. I bet that'd make them all nice & snug in the shocks.

Thanks again for the replies about the AT shocks. I think I'll probably stick to the ones I have for now. With the o-rings they won't fall out, but I need to compensate a little cause even with the cables ties up they tend to aim the mics up a little. I'd like to keep them as low pro as possible. I'll have to look more into the superlux mounts and see how'd they work.
