Installing the SM7 Shockmount
The C1 kit comes with a SM7 shockmount, which you can use to
greatly reduce any noise transmitted through the mic stand. The
shockmounts are especially useful in reducing the problems caused by
a boomy soundstage, for example when miking overhead cymbals, or
even in the studio with talent that likes to move a lot on a floor that
may not be as solid as it should be.
