Part of the Miniature Clip Mic (MCM) system, the Neumann MC 4 MCM Clip Double Bass Ribis a clip used to mount the SH 150 MCM gooseneck on the rib/body of a double bass. 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 4 features a self-adjusting spring mechanism and a rubber coating that ensure slip-free attachment without damaging the sensitive surfaces on the instrument. You can use the included reducer to adapt the clip to particularly slim instruments.

Q: 1. Why two microphones on the same clip? Is this redundancy in case of failure? Stereo? Something else? Newbie looking to learn.

A: The Sennheiser MZQ 22 Double Tie Clip can be used for mounting either one or two lavalier microphones. The included mic holders that come with the clip are removable. There are a variety of reasons for using two microphones which could be for backup in case one mic fails or for stereo audio, or two mics can send separate audio feeds to two different destinations like two separate mixers, cameras, recorders, etc., or a combination of two devices which could be required for different applications. There is no set rule for how two lavalier mics can be used, but a double tie clip like the MZQ 22 is a very handy tool that will give you the option if the need for two microphones should arise.
