Would this work for replacing the stock RDE VideoMic Pro shock mount?
Asked by: Daniel D.
Yes - even Rycote show an example on their Flickr page. I'll honour B&H's instructions not to include a link, but browse Rycote's InVision album on Flickr

Will this mount support a mkh 8060 w/softie lite? not because of the weight but because of the small size of the mic. I will be using it with the XLR adapter.

No, it does not. You would need to use an adapter: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1369426-REG/camvate_c0993_2_x_1_4_hot.html

would this also work with a boom pole?
Asked by: Al
This shock mount is designed specifically to be inserted into a hot shoe of a camera. I would recommend the Rycote Universal Shotgun Mount for Cameras and Boom Poles, B&H # RYUSGM. This model, which features a Duo-Lyre Cradle, is designed for use with a boom pole or to be mounted on a camera.

question

Pertaining to the question regarding whether or not this mount will work with the videomic pro, for those who do use it, is this the best way to go?
Asked by: Juan H.
I use it with a Sennheiser ME 64 with the K6 powering module, AA battery and aRycote Standard Hole Softie Windscreen. I think the my set up weights about the same as the Rode videomic pro. It works great for me! The RycoteLyre Shockmount is the best I've used with a DSLR. I work professionally and highly recommend Rycote shock mounts

question

Will this work to replace my original ride videomic's (not the pro) stock elastic suspension system? Cause replacing those elastics is a pain. Or do I need to find a Rode Lyre?
Asked by: Michelle R.
Rde provide a Lyre Upgrade for the original VideoMic. A search for 'rode videomic lyre upgrade' should get what you are looking for.
