The SMR is a revolutionary shock mount for large
diaphragm condenser microphones from RØDE. Featuring a unique double-Lyre
suspension system, the SMR enhances the existing superior vibration cancellation
of Rycote’s Lyre system by using a smaller inner Lyre to act as a tensioning
element. This maintains each Lyre in the neutral position where it is most
efficient at cancelling vibration. The SMR's removable all-metal pop filter is
as effective as it is visually striking, providing an integrated solution for
plosive protection that is easily washable and designed to last as long as the
shock mount and microphone. The clamping system of the SMR utilises a greater
surface area for increased friction and weight handling, without the need for
over-tightening of the locking thread. With the load distributed over a greater
surface area, the clamping system is virtually immune to the wear and tear of
repeated use. The SMR's frame is constructed from an engineering grade
reinforced polymer, typically only seen in high-load applications such as
safety equipment, automotive components, and military artillery. Vibration
force is evenly distributed around the outer frame via the wide mounting rails,
increasing the effectiveness of the Lyre system. Efficient and well-considered
cable-management completes the package. A base nut is also included, suitable
for all compatible RØDE microphones.
