The all new Sling-Shock (Patent No. 8,571,250) is a revolutionary departure from traditional shock mount designs. We've done away with the rubberized parts and elastic cords, producing a durable shock mount that gives superior isolation from vibrations. In the Royer tradition, the Sling-Shock is hand-built in our Burbank, CA facility using only the finest materials. Our proprietary system of non-resonant nylon cable and damped steel springs acts to isolate the microphone from vibrations induced from the microphone stand. These vibrations can appear as rumble and/or low-grade noises which create disturbances across the bandwidth, from low end thumps to harmonic disturbances at different frequencies. The Sling-Shock's superior vibration-reduction capabilities and lack of self-resonance allow engineers to capture performances free of vibration-related interference across the bandwidth. The Sling-Shock RSM-SS1 is sized to fit Royer's 1-inch diameter R-121, R-122, R-122V, SF-1 and SF-12 ribbon microphones. Any cylindrical microphone measuring approximately one inch in diameter (+/- 1/8 inch) will work with the model RSM-SS1. The RSM-SS24 accommodates Royer SF-2, SF-24 and SF-24V microphones. A European stand-adapter is included where applicable, allowing the Sling-Shock to be fitted to European specification microphone stands.
