Rycote launches new InVision Studio USM-VB at NAMM

The Rycote InVision Studio USM is an indestructible, universal microphone shockmount that out-performs expensive elastic suspensions...Countless owners of the standard USM have pleaded for a USM for their larger mics. Here it is - The USM-VB.

The InVision Studio Universal Shock Mount provides revolutionary technology for mounting practically any microphone with a diameter of 18-55mm (USM-VB for larger 55-68mm mics). A single InVision USM model can effectively take the place of multiple, model-specific, elastic microphone suspensions while effectively providing better performance. This discreet, low profile mount uses Rycote's patented "Lyre" suspension system, which does not use any rubber or elastic components to isolate the mic. The special design shape of the clips allows for a specific compliance to the microphone, and thus prevents handling noise and vibrations from reaching the capsule. This Lyre design, used across our entire range of products gives unparalleled isolation for microphones.

In vibration testing, the InVision™ Studio Mounts provided up to 12dB more isolation than elasticized mounts! The suspension of InVision™ will never need rethreading, and because the Lyres are made of the composite material Hytrel, they are virtually unbreakabe. READ MORE about USM Studio Shockmounts
