The advanced suspension shock mount system eliminates unwanted vibration and handling noise and performs excellently when used outdoors in strong winds, and when used indoors for boom pole work, on a stand, or when handheld with the pistol grip. It is an ideal solution for Saramonic TM1, TM7, and NV5 shotgun microphones, but can also perfectly fit almost any industry-standard shotgun and pencil microphones up to 380mm (14.9") in length and 19-23mm (0.75-0.91") in diameter. The overall angle of the mount and blimp can be quickly adjusted to optimize your microphone placement. A short coiled XLR cable is integrated into the handle and mounting unit to make connecting your microphones easy without having to worry about cable routing. The internal cabling also helps create a seamless structure for diffusing rushing wind. An acoustically transparent fur windscreen serves as the VMS’s outer layer and can be easily removed for use in milder environments. A 3/8" thread at the base of the handle allows you to attach the VMS to boom poles, such as the Saramonic Magic Boom Pole, and a 1/4" 20 adapter is included to provide nearly limitless mounting options. If your productions switch quickly between indoor and outdoor shooting, the VMS can be rapidly modified for these tasks. The rear and front domes are easily removable, and an integrated sliding rail allows the main blimp housing to be rapidly disassembled. Similarly, the system is easy to disassemble and pack down at the end of shooting, and a carrying bag is included for convenient storage and transport. All components are ultra-lightweight, so they will not weigh you down when working or moving equipment.
