Mikrofontartó

Mikrofontartó is a device or accessory used to hold a microphone in place during recording, broadcasting, or live performance. It can be a standalone item or integrated into a microphone stand, boom arm, or clip system. The primary function is to secure the microphone while allowing precise adjustment of position, angle and orientation.

Common forms include microphone clips or clamps that grip the microphone body and attach to stands via threaded inserts, such as 5/8"-27 or 3/8"-16 threads. Another widespread form is the gooseneck holder, a flexible tube that enables continuous positioning. Shock mounts are also used as mikrofontartók to isolate the microphone from handling or structural vibrations by suspending it with elastic or spider-like supports.

Materials vary from metal (steel or aluminum) to durable plastics, with finishes typically black or metallic. Design considerations emphasize stability, ease of adjustment, and compatibility with different microphone diameters and weight classes.

Mounting and compatibility: mikrofontartók are often designed to fit standard stand threads and mic diameters, with adapters available to broaden compatibility. Proper use includes avoiding over-tightening and ensuring that the holder can support the microphone’s weight without slippage.

Applications: they are used in recording studios, broadcast environments, stages, film and video productions, and home studios. In Hungarian, mikrofontartó is a general term that covers simple clips as well as more complex mounting solutions for professional and consumer audio setups.
