mic mount

BlackHawk2029 said:well i dont have the inputs for close micing toms, so it'll only be on my snare, and im really hoping im ok with where the mic ends up.

EdWonbass said:They are quite sturdy. Almost tank like.
I think if you had the right length goose neck you could put the mount on the lower lug and bring the gooseneck up over the top rim and position it as needed. I have not tried this so I am not sure if it will work.
dgatwood said:I think the only real concern would be finding gooseneck that was tight enough that it wouldn't flex under the vibrations resulting from the impact of sticks hitting the drum. I don't have any recommendations on stiff goosenecks except to suggest that if you plan to do this, you should find a local music store and try a half dozen goosenecks until you find one that you think is stiff enough.
