For mounting the VR88 to a mic stand you
can use the included swivel adapter or for
additional isolation the VR88 can be fitted
on the included SP88 “Spider” shock mount.
Follow the steps below to install the swivel or
SP88 shockmount.
First, screw the swivel mount or shock
mount onto your mic stand or boom
arm. If you’re using a US 5/8” mic stand
or boom, remove the Euro adapter.
Install the VR88 into the swivel or
shockmount by fitting the microphone
into the center of the holder, positioning
the VR88 all the way to the bottom
mounting plate. (Figure 1)
Secure the swivel or shockmount by
reinstalling the threaded collar, rotating
clockwise until tight. (Figure 2)
Now, loosen the thumb screw to
adjust the angle of the microphone
and position the VR88 to the desired
location. Once set, tighten the
thumbscrew to secure the microphone
in place.
 Note: Be careful not to cross thread
or over tighten the threaded collar or
thumb screw.
