Part of the Miniature Clip Mic (MCM) system, the Neumann MC 3 is a clip used to mount the SH 150 MCM gooseneck on the strings of a double bass below the bridge. The gooseneck attaches to the clip via a holder that rotates along one or two axes and locks in 45° increments to prevent cable twists and allow for precise and reliable positioning of the microphone over the instrument. Easy to use, the MC 3 features a rubber coating that ensures reliable attachment without damaging the sensitive surfaces on the instrument.
