Installing the SM5 Shockmount
The C5MP kit comes with two SM5 shockmounts, which you can use
to greatly reduce any noise transmitted through the mic stand. The
shockmounts are especial 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 a solid as it should be.
