Hardly use this but when I broke it out noticed the band was shot. Thanks!

I fixed my AT4310a's a few months ago with shock cord from this sire (scroll to the bottom of the page):

I can't recall if I bought the 1/16 or 3/32 size.  At that price, get a few yards of both.

Hair care products for pony tails at your local drug store. Get 100 for a buck. I'm serious.

Fucking broke the mount taking the old ones off....eff it, the thing was 15 years old.

Super glue will put humpty back together again.

If high dollar Schoeps are going in those mounts, Rycote Invisions would be a good replacement to protect your mics.

Agreed on the Rycotes, they are the best.

If you really want a direct replacement for the A20 and cheap, I will be a broken record and post this one for the umpteenth time:

I own 3 of these.  Build quality is equal to the Schoeps mounts.  Cradle is 22mm, so I add some self adhesive felt dots to hold 20mm mics securely.  As a bonus, no scratching of the mics taking them in and out.  No worries dealing with this seller, I have bought other items from them and have had zero problems.  Shipping does take a very long time, but US dealers no longer stock these Schoeps mount clones.

I agree with voltronic, these are a good replacement.  Dirt cheap, too.

But you should try to contact AT directly.......they sent me replacement cords, with clips, for free a couple of years ago, just for asking.

That's what I used for my Sabra Soms and now on my generic also.

Medium dollar dpa 4022s. What I do is mount my dpa cmxo ortf/xy mount into a single a20s. But I also have those rubber dpa shocks, and the cmxo fits nicely in there, and also fits in a line audio shock. So no mo plastic Schoeps mount. Hated thst thing. Thanks All!
