Different clip for clip-on mic?
A little while back I bought an Audio Technica Pro 35 clip on mic. I really like the mic a lot. The problem I am having is with the clip. There is not really a convenient spot on the mandolin to clip it. The clip is too big to fit in one of the f holes.
So far, I have been clipping it onto the edge of my Tone Guard. The problem is that the gripping portion of the clip is about 1/2 inch wide, whereas the bar of the Tone Guard is only about 1/4 inch wide, so it is not incredibly stable. So far (knock on wood) it hasn't slipped off while playing out, but it has at practice when I am sitting to play.
I like the carpenter jack style attachments, but so far I have not been able to find one just by itself for use with a mic--that is, all of them I can find have a pickup or one or two have a built in (expensive) mic. I would like to find a clip that is just the c-clamp part of a carpenter jack, that I could use with the mic I already have.
No luck on my end looking online. Anyone know of anything like this? Or otherwise, any secret to getting the Audio Technica Pro 35's clip to fit somewhere stable on a mandolin?
