The Neumann MC 3 is a professional mounting clip designed specifically for use with the Neumann Miniature Clip Microphone (MCM) system on double bass. It allows the microphone to be attached directly between the strings below the bridge, ensuring optimal sound pickup and minimal mechanical vibration transfer.
The MC 3’s precision-engineered clamping mechanism provides a firm, stable hold without affecting instrument resonance. Combined with the flexible MCM gooseneck (SH 150 or SH 250), it enables ideal positioning of the KK 14 capsule for a clear, natural, and balanced representation of the double bass’s acoustic character.
Constructed from durable materials with soft protective surfaces, the MC 3 is designed for long-term reliability in both live and studio environments.
