What's the difference between using a Suspension mount and the M600?
The Suspension
The Suspension method although reducing vibrations within the audible
frequency range, providing varing degrees of attenuation
between roughly 50hz and 300hz, also resonates and accentuates
vibrations below 20Hz, allowing movement in the X, Y and Z axis.
A microphone when held in a suspension mount moves quite a lot in the
X (Sidways), Y ( Up+Down) and Z (Back + Forth) axis, especially below 20Hz.
This is due to the flexibility built into the design of a suspension mount
and that most suspension mounts have a resonant frequency below 20Hz.
This movement hinders the microphone from capturing the soundwave clearly,
producing a less detailed recording.
A suspension mount due to its design accentuates infrasonic vibrations,
as can be clearly seen in the Sound Analysis graphs and Polytec Laser Vibrometery report.
The M600
The M600 although reducing less vibrations within the audible frequency range
restricts movement of the microphone in the X,Y and Z axis
and reduces vibrations below 20Hz.
This restricted movement and reduction of infrasonic vibrations
enables the microphone to capture the soundwave clearly,
producing a more detailed recording.
The M600 due to its design reduces infrasonic vibrations,
as can be clearly seen in the Sound Analysis graphs and Polytec Laser Vibrometery report.
