Stroud, UK (May 1, 2008) -- Rycote will be presenting its new InVision series of suspensions at the upcoming AES Show in Amsterdam. The InVision series incorporates eight different models of suspensions, based around flexible W-shaped clips of varying diameters to suit a wide range of microphones from different manufacturers.

According to Rycote, its "virtually unbreakable" W-shaped clips, called Lyres, provide a more efficient isolation from unwanted vibrations than traditional mic suspensions. Models INV-1 to INV-3 are designed for smaller-bodied microphones in static use, while models INV 4-8 are designed for static and boom-mounted applications, and fit microphones ranging from 8 mm to 30 mm in diameter. A full list of microphones compatible with InVision can be found at: www.rycote.com/products/invision.

Live demonstrations of the InVision suspensions on boom poles and desk stands will be taking place throughout the AES show on the Rycote stand (#1814).

One of the most versatile models in the range, the INV-7 is designed for shockmounting both fixed and boom pole-mounted microphones, and can be used with a variety of microphones from 19 to 25 mm in diameter, including the Schoeps CMIT-5U, Audio-Technica AT4073a, Sennheiser ME66/K6, Neumann KMR81i, DPA 4017, and beyerdynamic MCE86. The INV-1 demonstration system will be set up using two Schoeps CCM41 mics, to enable a comparison to be made between the new InVision mount and a standard desk clamp. Visitors are invited to listen to the improved isolation of the InVision.
