About the Grips & Mic Suspensions range

Start with the microphone's body diameter, length and weight. A suspension must hold the microphone securely without restricting its vibration isolation. Check whether the mount uses interchangeable clips, Lyre elements or a fixed cradle. For handheld recording, look for a pistol grip with a comfortable handle, angle adjustment and cable management. For boompole use, confirm the base thread, commonly 3/8 inch. Also check whether the design suits a shotgun, small condenser or larger studio microphone.

Compatibility is the main sizing trap. Do not rely on the microphone brand alone, because different models can have different body diameters. Measure the microphone where it sits in the suspension and compare that measurement with the stated range. Some mounts suit 19 to 25 mm bodies, while others accept wider microphones or specific mounting clips. The range here includes pistol-grip shockmounts, Lyre mounts, InVision suspensions, back-to-back clips and boompole accessories, so check the included parts before ordering.

Grips & Mic Suspensions questions

Will a microphone shockmount fit any microphone?

No. Shockmounts have a specified diameter range, mounting clip or compatible microphone list. Check the microphone body diameter, length and weight before ordering. A mount that is too wide may not secure the microphone, while one that is too narrow may damage the body or fail to fit.

What is the difference between a pistol grip and a microphone suspension?

A pistol grip is a handheld support, usually with a shockmount that reduces handling noise. A microphone suspension is the isolating cradle or mount that supports the microphone. Some products combine both features, while others are designed for a boompole, stand, camera or separate grip.

Can I use a pistol grip on a boompole?

Many pistol grips include a threaded base for boompole or stand mounting, but the thread and included adaptor must match your equipment. Check the product specifications before ordering. Also confirm that the microphone fits the supplied clips or suspension and that the cable can exit without strain.
