Audix SMT19 - Precision Suspension Mount for 19mm Microphones (SCX Series, TM1, ADX51)
The Audix SMT19 is more than just a microphone clamp; it's an essential tool designed to protect the integrity of your critical recordings. This low-profile suspension mount was specifically developed for 19mm diameter pencil and measurement condenser microphones. Its robust construction and "Made in USA" engineering ensure that the microphone remains isolated from mechanical vibrations, handling noise, and floor resonances that often ruin a perfect take.
Unlike conventional rigid clips, the SMT19's design incorporates a suspension system that acts as a shock absorber between the microphone stand and the capsule. This is vital when working with highly sensitive microphones such as the SCX Series or the TM1 measurement microphone, where precision is paramount. The thumbscrew adjustment system allows you to securely lock the exact angle, preventing the microphone from slipping or losing its position during the session.
Main Features
-
Superior sound isolation: Designed to decouple the microphone from the stand, drastically reducing the transmission of low-frequency noise and accidental bumps.
-
Secure fixing system: It has a thumbscrew locking mechanism that allows for precise and firm tilt adjustment without the need for additional tools.
-
Universal 19mm Compatibility: Although optimized for Audix models, its standard 19mm diameter makes it compatible with any other brand microphone that meets these dimensions.
-
Durable construction: Made with high-strength composites to withstand daily use in professional studios and live sound applications.
Benefits for the user
For sound engineers and measurement technicians, the Audix SMT19 offers peace of mind knowing that the captured signal will be free of mechanical artifacts. By eliminating structural noise, it delivers cleaner, more transparent audio, reducing the need for aggressive low-cut filters in post-production. Furthermore, its sleek, professional design enhances the aesthetics of studio or stage setups.
Recommended use cases
-
Acoustic measurement and calibration: Ideal for holding the Audix TM1 microphone during sound system analysis (RTA), ensuring that environmental vibrations do not alter the readings.
-
Recording acoustic instruments: Perfect for drum overheads, acoustic guitars or pianos using SCX Series microphones or the ADX51 , where detail is paramount.
-
Broadcast and Film: Indoor use for dialogue or foley effects where absolute silence of the medium is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is it compatible with microphones other than Audix?
Yes, as long as the microphone body has a cylindrical diameter of 19 mm (0.74 inches), the SMT19 will work perfectly.
-
What type of thread does the bracket have?
It comes with a standard 5/8" thread, compatible with the vast majority of conventional microphone stands.
-
Does it work with the Audix i5 or D6 microphone?
No, those models have different diameters and shapes. The SMT19 is exclusively for 19mm narrow-body microphones.
