Using the optional PSM-1 Shock-Mount

For additional vibration isolation, the Podcaster can be fitted to 

the optional PSM-1 ‘spider’ shock mount. The  

PSM-1 is a recommended and useful addition to any recording 

facility as it significantly reduces unwanted noise transmission to 

the microphone. If you have the optional PSM1 shock mount, then 

follow the steps below to install  the PSM1.  

1. First screw the PSM-1 shock mount onto your mic stand, boom 

arm or ‘anlgepoise

® 

style’ arm. If you’re using a US 5/8” mic stand 

or boom, remove the 3/8” insert.

2. Remove the locking collar from the base of the Podcaster and 

store it away in a safe place where it will not get lost. 

3. Install the Podcaster into the PSM1 by fitting the microphone 

into the center of the web and onto the bottom mounting plate 

(figure 10). There is a captive locking collar in the centre of the 

shock mount which will screw onto the thread on the bottom of 

the Podcaster. 

4. Rotate the captive locking collar to secure the Podcaster firmly 

in the shock mount (figure 11). 

5. Loosen the thumb screw on the PSM1 shock mount to adjust  the 

angle of the Podcaster and position it to the desired location.  Once 

set, tighten the thumbscrew to secure the Podcaster in place.

Note: Be careful not to over tighten the thumbscrew as this could 

cause cross threading and the mount will not maintain the correct 

angle if this occurs.
