The Auray ISO-ARMOR-2 is a portable microphone isolation chamber designed to deliver lightweight, compact, and effective acoustic isolation for vocalists, voice-over artists, podcasters, and audiobook narrators in acoustically untreated spaces such as homes, hotels, offices, and project studios. Its high-density, open-cell acoustic foam and perforated aluminum shell work together to reduce ambient noise and tone-coloring reflections. The resulting sound is more dry, direct, and controlled, making it ideal for strong, up-close vocal presence.

The integrated suspension mount ensures physical stability for your microphone and reduces noise from vibrations. Its cylindrical design and suspension bands allow you to securely mount mics up to 2.3” in diameter. A built-in removable pop filter slides up and down for quick access to the mic. The pop filter’s two layers of nylon provide protection against plosives, which can cause clipping and distracting pops in the sound.

Portable Isolation
Weighing only 1.4 lb, the ISO-ARMOR-2 is easily transportable and provides convenient, space-efficient isolation from distracting room noise and reflections for microphones with diameters up to 2.3"
Improved Vocal Tone
The deep microphone chamber aids in achieving a focused vocal sound void of excessive coloration from flutter echo and room reverb
Special-Design Acoustic Foam
High-density, open-cell acoustic foam shields your microphone from unwanted indirect sounds such as echoes bouncing from wall to wall and noise from fans or air conditioners
Sleek Aluminum Shell
The perforated aluminum shell provides a modern look for "in-the-studio" photos and additional protection against sonic degradation from undesired off-axis sounds
Integrated Sliding Pop Filter
The built-in, two-layer nylon pop filter minimizes destructive plosives, slides up and down for easy microphone access, and can be removed for close-proximity vocals
Includes Mounting Adapter
An included suspension mount neatly secures to the bottom of the ISO-ARMOR-2, keeps your microphone steady and stable, and decouples the mic from external vibrations and sympathetic resonance

Mic Isolation Chamber

I think this item is great for blocking out unwanted sounds. As the Co-owner of Creative Content OnDemand, we have microphones in each of our video editing rooms for fast voice-over recordings; and this product serves great for isolating computers or raid drive noisy fans.

Great sound - big unit

By Gayle

I love the sound this chamber produces and the isolation. I needed to cut the sound floor by just a little and isolate from the laptop motor. This is did the job wonderfully. Plus it came quickly and well packaged. It was easy to install my mic and unit sits securely on the mic stand. It's big, though so I'm just getting used to seeing my script around the unit.

Bought this to keep out noise from by computer

The isolation chamber is great. I have noise from my computer and a nearby Synology NAS that I have to compete with when recording YouTube sessions. This item does the trick. I even got a Presonus PD-70 rigged up to work inside the chamber. It's a little big, but I was able to insert from the bottom, after removing the ring.

Works great without the weight!

I have one of the massive isolation units, but it's so heavy I can't put it on the extendible arm at my desk. When I'm recording myself, it's much easier to sit at the console and sing, than move to a stand. This fits the bill. It's light enough that the arm attached to my desktop can hold it, and I love the fact that it surrounds the mic and has a built in pop filter. Much more effective with less hassles!

Good but not for all mics

Caught the product on sale and not unappy. I use an SMB mic though and it isnt really for that. There is no mount actually on the armor or that can handle the odd mic mounting of the smb. It does stop the echo in my room and I think it does the job. (I put the mic in a mount and strapped it down. Not great as the shock mount is pretty useless. though it works for me.

Does not work with any Lewitt mics & many others; fits loose

When you watch the how to mount video, he says that for almost all mics, you're just gonna place it on top of the shock mount. Pay really close attention to what he's saying: he just wants you to set down the whole thing ON TOP OF the shock mount, rather than into it, without any security. So if you lightly bump the thing, it topples off -- and also, there's simply less vibration isolation than a true engaged shock mount. This is no solution at all; the critically gigantic flaw of this product is that it lacks two mounts: one for the chamber, one for the mic. And besides, most shock mounts do not elevate the large-diaphragm microphone chassis high enough to reach the inner chamber's middle: you just get a peek of the top of the mic, with most of the sound getting blocked from all directions, as seen in my photos here. Basically, this only works for the very tallest microphone cylinders -- the minority of large-diaphragm mics.

It works!

I was on the road traveling and didn't have time to wait for a Kaotica to be delivered. This seemed to be the perfect solution, 1/3 the price and I hear no difference in quality from the kaotic, and personally I like the look and feel of the metal over a plain foam ball. I'm very pleased with the results! Would definitely recommend.

Working great with Blue

This fits perfectly upside down with a Blue Yeti on a Blue Boom arm. Also, have an Auphonix Pro Microphone Shock Mount in the mix. Works great to move it up and out of way when not being used. Mostly used for teams calls in an untreated room and it is doing a great job for me! The pop filter is excellent and the isolation chamber is good although not a miracle worker. Overall I am very satisfied with the setup I have in place.

Asked by: David's
This would help to reduce fan noise from a pc. For best results, you would want to use this, spaced as far away from the pc as possible, with the rejection side of the mic facing the pc.

No. This device is designed for a large diaphragm side address mic. The Procaster is an end address mic not meant for these types of filters.

Would this work with MXL 770?

Would this work with MXL 770?
Asked by: James
The diameter of the MXL 770 Small-Diaphragm is slightly larger than the limit of 2.3-inches, so it will not fit in the shock mount of this mic isolation chamber.

Has anyone tried using this outdoors on a boom ...

Has anyone tried using this outdoors on a boom pole as an inexpensive and portable sound blimp, even though it obviously wasn't designed for that purpose?
Asked by: Christopher
I have not heard of anyone using the Auray Iso-Armor 2 as a windscreen for boom poles. Typically a shotgun microphone would take sound from primarily the front of the microphone and the Auray Iso-Armor 2 is made for side address mirophones and blocking out background noise. It is not made to be used as a windscreen like a blimp would.

Will this work with an Apogee Mic+?
Asked by: Lisa
It will work with any microphone that can fit in the chamber, but the chamber is a bit tight, so if the microphone is tall, it can be difficult. The main concern is the entire condenser (or receiving head) needs to fit inside the chamber to be effective.
