  • So…I need an uber shock mount

    Posted by Tim Kolb on January 8, 2010 at 9:49 pm

    I went and picked up a used MKH816 (Sennheiser loooong gun) and while my 416 works in any shock mount that holds an ME66…the 816 just leaves all my shockmounts begging for mercy.

    I’ve seen a couple Sennheiser blimps for this mic that have looked fairly beat go for a pretty fair price… I have a pretty beefy foam windscreen on it now that I could custom fit to a proper pistol grip that is up to the task…does anybody know who makes one like that these days?

    Or…am I left with strictly buying a blimp with an extension in it?

    (The 816 is very nearly 22″ long)

    I also have an old ME88 (skinny capsule) that I’m seeking a foam windscreen that actually fits…if anyone has any ideas.

    Thanks
