Thank you so much for making this video and keeping it on youtube. I just ordered a RE20 in black with the 309A shock mount and wanted to get some tips on putting it all together for my new desk set up.
Having just purchased this, I find it rather contemptuous that there are absolutely no instructions on how to put this together in the box when you buy it. Given the price of this accessory, would it kill you to include a sheet of instructions?
Thanks for yet another great video - so helpful, comprehensive and to the point! Appreciate the details in setting this 309A mount. I was able to follow along and I'm all set up! Thanks again!💯👍
Thanks for this video! It has been very helpful. Nice suggestion to rotate the mic a little bit so that the slot and the pin don't line up anymore (around 8:06).
I saw an assembly video that had the person remove that tiny Pin on the mounting post of the 320 as he said it prevent to attach it flush in the mount. Is that correct????
This is really something that I have to add to my collection - but damn, this collection of rubberband and tinplate is pricey: 160USD (135EUR) - that is the cheapest price I could find in Germany. And I have searched quite a bit. I mean... I understand that you need to make a living. And I happily pay for your fantastic microphones. But 160USD for a suspension mount? Seriously, this is madness.
Thanks for making this video. I have mine setup just the way you show it here but for some reasons the rubber cords keep breaking. I've had my RE27 and the 309A for only 3 months and already I had to replace 2 of the rubber cords. I've looked up a lot of images to see how everyone else has the rubber cords attached and unlike you and I, they don't attach them to the corners of the intermediate frame but to the the sides of the frame. I'm going to try it... maybe a little less tension on the cords will help them to last longer. Your thoughts?
Love the RE-20, but my God. This thing is so outrageously priced. If you own a RE320, this thing costs nearly half the mic lol. Like how are they getting away with this? Don't spend $150 on this. If it's not marked up like crazy, they need to get their costs down. In any case, this isn't worth the price. Not even close. What is the hardware made of platinum?
