Finally, a Proper 421 Clip

THE solution to an age old problem. How many broken or failed 421 clips have we seen over the years? Buy a new one, it will eventually break again. Not this one! The load forces are properly distributed, plus the anti vibration shock mount is a welcome extra. Well worth the investment.

Here Is how to fix the slip problem with this shockmount

Hi I just wanted to say that there is a way to fix the slip problem with this shockmount. take your shockmount and flip to the part were the two prongs are. take some pliers and pinch the very tips. dont pinch to much just a little at a time then check to see if the shockmount clip has stoped sliping out when you pull and wiggle at the same time. do this until results are met.{it worked for me}

Doesn't stop the slip problem

If you need a shockmount for you 421, get this. It does exactly what it's supposed to do. Do not buy this if you think it will fix the "clip-on" problem with the mic. Everyone knows that 421's are notorious for falling off the clip (poor design), this won't fix it.
Works great as a shockmount though.

Sennheiser MD 421 Shockmount

MIc falls off if you move just right. Really limits positioning of the mic, esspecially around drum kits.

421 Shock Mount

A great accessory for a great mic. The design is very simple and integrates well with the look of the mic. Should the rubber rings break, You can easily replace them with O-rings from a hardware store. Although handling noise isn't usually a problem with this mic, I wouldn't get a 421 without this iso-mount.

Our Customers Say...

I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!
