The Rycote InVision INV-HG mkIII Microphone Suspension addresses the demand for a heavy-duty shockmount to secure shotgun microphones. The INV-HG mkIII will minimalize handling noise, rumble, and vibration in all speech-capturing applications.

The InVision Lyre cradle accommodates most microphones measuring 19 to 34mm in diameter, like the Sennheiser MKH416 or MKH60. The cradle stabilizes even heavy microphones and allows the use of windscreens without sagging. A heavy duty swivel with a star knob fastens your mic tightly in place. The Lyre cradle rests on a miniature bar with a 3/8" threaded base and includes a 5/8" adapter.

The INV-HG mkIII base features an integrated cable clamp for securing excess cable and minimizing noise. The unique Lyre suspension and cable clamp are engineered with Hytrel for a virtually indestructible design that maximizes shock and noise absorbtion.

Large Lyre Suspension for Boom Operation
The Patented Rycote Lyre suspension cradle measures 70mm high and 40mm wide to accommodate heavier microphones. This is ideal for static stand mounting as well as boom placement.
19 to 34mm Mounting Cradle
The cradle included with this system accommodates microphone diameters measuring between 19 to 34mm. The interior is treated with a soft-grip surface for a perfect, non-slip fitting.
Hytrel Construction
The unique Lyre suspension is engineered with Hytrel for a virtually indestructible design that maximizes shock and noise absorbtion.
Integrated 3/8" Threaded Base with 5/8" Stand Adapter
A 3/8" threaded base and a 5/8" threaded stand adapter is featured at the base for microphone boom pole and stand mounting.

Rycote InVision Reviews

Perfect Solution!

Perfect for securing my Sennheiser MKH-416. Eliminates rumble and other vibration noises, holds the microphone firmly, right where I want it. Exactly what I needed.

Softest shore but still too stiff

I put a Schoeps ORTF bar into one of these mountined onto a Bogen 3373 light stand. What this listing does not note is the shore or stiffness of the lyres. This combo is black/black (Shore 62) which Rycote indicates are the softest lyre shore available Rycote. This is still far too stiff and my mics rumble when you look at them.

Excellent Vibration Reduction

I have a Sennheiser 416 and Rode NTG-3B and use a pair of these shock mounts and gator frameworks arms to attach them to a desk. These do a much better job than the handful of other shock mounts we've used in the past, and hold the mics more securely for weird angles (vertical) that just aren't possible with some types of mounts. From now on we'll only be using these.

Sennheiser MKH8060 fits with this? INV LITE 19, prefer to avoid it as concern for secure grip on mic and may be leaving a mark on mic. Didn't find much evidence on internet.
Asked by: Hardik
We purchased 4 INV-7 HG MkIII mounts for our MKH 20s and 40s. They have performed well and hold the mics very tightly. The 8060 is a little smaller so I would go with your selection of the INV Lite 19 for boom mounting a mic of your diameter. I've never noticed them leaving any kind of mark on the microphone. I'm sure if they did folks would be screaming. Hope this helps.

Will this support and fit on the blackmagic ursa mini 4k? supporting an NTG 3, I have heard its heavy for most shock mounts, I do not want drooping.
Asked by: Adrian
The Rycote InVision mount will support the Rode NTG-3. In order to secure this mount to the URSA Mini, you will need a 3/8 to 1/4 thread adapter.

question

Can the Rycote InVision INV-HG mkIII Microphone Supension - Lyre Shockmount attach to the Rycote Softie Pistol Grip? Reason I ask is because the Rycote Softie Pistol Grip is non-returnable so I want to make sure.
Asked by: Marcus
The Rycote Softie Pistol Grip is not compatible with the INV-HG MKIII mount. This unit requires a grip that features a 3/8 -16 threaded end such as the Rycote 037301. https://bhpho.to/2hgfqgX

Does this mean that this shock mount COMES WITH the Ryco 5/8” mic stand adapter included, together?
