Mic quick clips |
|
|
I have a number of microphone Quick Klips, made by On Stage Stands.
Berklee also uses clips like these, but their clips are about one
millimeter larger in diameter, and the little spring-loaded nub is gold,
not silver. Naturally, the On Stage clips don't fit into these, and it
makes using my own microphones a pain, since the clips are practically
glued into the Berklee stands at this point. Berklee bought them many
years ago and nobody remembers where they come from. Does anyone have a
clue where to find them?

The really old LO-2B quick releases have a "nub" made of brass. Some of
them were plated, but often the plating came off leaving the metal
exposed... Be aware that over the years the LO-2B has also had
inconsistencies in size, specifically between the black and silver ones.
Often I have issues getting black receivers to slide easily over the silver
bases...

I bet they are using the old Atlas ones. Although my Atlas ones don't
have
any gold nub.

Thanks. I bet that's what it is. Looks like there's no solution,
then... mine are all silver, but by now they must have standardized on
the smaller size, because some of mine are Atlas and some are On Stage
and they're all compatible.
