CAD Audio Astatic Shock Mount Base with Push-To-Talk or Push-To-Mute Switch for Gooseneck Microphones, "Mic Active" LED in Switch, Phantom Required

An innovative and user-friendly solution for audio professionals, the CAD Audio Astatic 40-117 Shock Mount Base is meticulously designed to accommodate the widely used 800 or 900 series ASTATIC mini-gooseneck microphones, as well as other miniature gooseneck microphones equipped with a three-pin professional audio connector.

This high-quality shock mount base boasts a specially compounded energy-absorbing pad that effectively decouples the base from sources of unwanted mechanical resonance, such as podiums, lecterns, and tables, ensuring clear and uninterrupted audio output.

One of its standout features is the push button, which can be configured as a "push-to-talk" or "push-to-mute" switch, depending on the mode selected on the switch located on the underside of the base. This flexibility allows for easy and convenient control over the microphone, enhancing the user experience.

The base also includes an LED indicator that illuminates when the microphone is active, providing a visual cue even in low-light situations. This feature eliminates guesswork, letting you know exactly when you're live.

The 40-117 Shock Mount Base is equipped with a robust four-conductor, two-shielded seven-foot cable that terminates with a professional three-pin male XLR connector, ensuring balanced audio for superior sound quality.

Constructed of die-cast zinc with a steel base plate, this durable shock mount base is built to withstand the rigors of professional use. It also features CAD's unique energy-absorbing shock mount compound at the bottom to minimize vibration noise, and two keyholes for permanent mounting, offering versatile operation.

Whether you're using the Astatic 800 and 900 series gooseneck mics or third-party microphones with 3-pin XLR type connections, the 40-117 Desk Mount is an ideal choice, offering a blend of functionality, durability, and style.
