For audio professionals and enthusiasts seeking unparalleled performance in a microphone suspension system, the Rycote INV-2 InVision Indoor Microphone Suspension stands out as an essential tool for studio recordings, conference audio, and speech capture applications. This meticulously engineered shockmount is a testament to Rycote's commitment to quality, designed to provide superior isolation from vibrations and handling noise.
The construction of the INV-2 features two discreet, low-profile InVision lyres, which are the heart of the system's vibration resistance. These lyres are made from Hytrel, a durable thermoplastic elastomer known for its flexibility and toughness, ensuring that the mount is not only lightweight but also virtually indestructible. The resilience of Hytrel allows the lyres to absorb and dissipate energy from vibrations effectively, offering an unmatched level of shock absorption and noise suppression.
The front clip of the mount boasts a 20mm (0.78") diameter, perfectly tailored for secure microphone attachment, while the rear clip measures 9.5mm (0.37") to accommodate the specific dimensions of your microphone setup. These clips are specifically designed to hold remote cabled microphones, such as the Rode NT6 and Sennheiser MKH8000, with precision and stability.
The lyres are mounted on a robust bar, which culminates in a 3/8" threaded stand adapter at the base, allowing for easy and secure attachment to microphone stands. This thoughtful design is complemented by an integrated cable clip on the stand adapter, which serves to neatly secure excess microphone cable, thereby minimizing cable-borne noise and ensuring a clean, organized setup.
Whether you're recording in the studio, capturing the nuances of a conference, or focusing on clear speech reproduction, the Rycote INV-2 InVision Microphone Suspension provides the reliability and performance you need. Its sleek, unobtrusive design not only complements any professional audio environment but also delivers the acoustic integrity that audio professionals demand.
