VideoMic GO II

The VideoMic GO II comes with the SM8-R, a high-quality shock mount that provides excellent isolation from external knocks, bumps, and other movement that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. Simply clip the VideoMic GO II onto the shock mount using the arrows on the body as a guide. The shock mount features a cold shoe for mounting onto cameras and other devices, as well as a 3/8” thread for mounting it onto a boompole, tripod, microphone stand or studio arm.

Cable Management

The SM8-R shock mount features a handy cable management system for keeping your setup neat and tidy. It has four slots to accommodate different cable types, including standard TRS cables, flat cables like the included SC14, and larger USB cables like the SC17.

Sliding Rail

The SM8-R shock mount also features a sliding rail for precise positioning of the microphone. This is particularly useful when using the VideoMic GO II with cameras as it allows you to slide it forward, so it does not block the viewfinder, or slide it back if it is in frame. Simply loosen the screw to slide the microphone back or forward on its rail and tighten again to secure it in place.
