Mic Shock mount Samson Q2U

prusaprinters

<p>This shock mount is for the<em>Samson Q2U</em> microphone. I saw some other designs that used hair bands to locate the mic body. I was intrigued to try that for myself. I found the mounting rings a bit clumsy, therefore I designed my own.</p> <p>As you may be able to see on one of the pictures, I originally designed the ring for 5 hair bands, but found that I only needed 2 to hold the mic in place, even vertically. What does help is that the hair bands are of the extra gripy kind. Therefore the final design of the ring has only 4 pins for two hair bands.</p> <p>I designed the connector beam so that the mic is well supported, without loss of access to the controls. I reused the base of the original mic holder to provide a screw mount to a standard mic stand. It might even be able to give you that extra height missing from the original included stand.</p> <p>The design is done with<em>OpenSCAD</em> and the file is included, if you desire to mod the parts.</p> <p>I printed in PETG as that was what I had on hand. The beam is a press fit into the rings.</p> <h3>Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Creality</p> <p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ender 3 Pro</p></div> <p><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div> <p><strong>Resolution:</strong></p> <p>200</p> <p class="detail-setting infill"><strong>Infill: </strong> <div><p>15% CubicSubDiv</p></div> <p><strong>Filament:</strong> EconoFil PETG Blue</p> <p><br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong></p> </p><div><p>I used <em>Ultimaker Cura</em> as slicer with standard 0.2 mm layer height.<br/> No support was needed. <p>Nozzle temp 235 oC; Bed temp 75 oC.</p> </p></div></p></p></p> Category: Audio
