Rode Mounting Ring 1

My XLR N1 looks cool with this nut but beforehand it was just all black, it makes it seem to stick out more.

Absolutely amazing product though. Its well made, strong, looks professional. Just as good if not better than the original in build quality and feel.

I was glad to find this item, because the original mounting ring that came with my Rode NT2-A had a bad thread and would not attach properly to the microphone. I should have returned it at the time of purchase, but didn't. It only held the mic loosely in place, and I was concerned that the thread on the mic might become damaged over time.

Anyway, this replacement mounting ring is much better than the original: it screws on smoothly and allows me to attach the mic securely to the cradle.

No matter how well you look after your gear sometimes something goes missing.
When that mic holder, mic cable or mic ring is gone it will slow or bring the whole recording session to a halt!

Having a backup Mounting Ring for your prized Rode mic is essential and my save some headaches in the future!

It does what it's meant to do, it holds the microphone perfectly attached to the support. If you change microphones frequently, in time it will leave skids on the clamp from the friction.

Wished it came in a black variant.

If you need to mount your Rode Large Diaphragm Condenser microphone to a shock mount that doesn't have a Rode style retaining nut, like the Rode SMR shock mount, then you will probably need one of these mounting rings. If you have multiple Rode LDCs, then it is a great addition to your kit bag.
