The Audio‑Technica AT8468 is a violin mount accessory designed for use with lavalier and small instrument microphones. It provides a simple, secure way to attach a microphone to a violin or similar stringed instrument for consistent sound pickup during performance or recording.
Key Features
Designed for Violins and Stringed Instruments: Attaches to the instrument’s strings between the bridge and tailpiece, placing the microphone in an optimal spot for sound capture.
Hook‑and‑Loop Fastener System: Uses a secure yet gentle strap that wraps around the strings to hold the mount in place without damaging the instrument.
Pocket for Microphone: Includes a small pocket to hold a compatible microphone snugly, keeping it stable during play.
Compact and Low‑Profile: Keeps the microphone discreet and out of the performer’s way while still allowing accurate sound capture.
Works with Compatible Lavalier Mics: Commonly used with small microphones such as the Audio‑Technica ATM350 series (sold separately).
