Fixed vertical angle mounting bases for Rycote Lyre or Radius Hoop microphone shockmounts. 

Top holes accept M3 heat-set inserts. Bottom holes accept 3/8-16 inserts.

UPDATED VERSIONS (.3mf) NOW ADDED (10/05/26) - Original .stl files kept as reference

3 versions are included:

  1. Single-pocket for very light mics such as Line Audio or active capsules

  2. Triple-pocket with outer pocket centers 25 mm apart (same as Radius RAD mounts)

  3. Triple-pocket with outer pocket centers 45 mm apart (same as Rycote INV-6)

 

Indexing marks along the bottom for easy angle alignment:

  • Tallest marks are at 0, 90, 180, 270 deg. 

  • Second-tallest are 45 deg rotated from tallest marks 

  • Shortest are 10 deg rotated from their immediate neighbor (convenient for 20 deg angle omnis, 110 deg ORTF cardioid, etc.)

 

These print well in both PLA and PETG. With a 0.4 mm nozzle, I get good results with 3 perimeters, 0.20 mm layer height using scarf seams, 20% Gyroid infill, and in their “normal” orientation. More recently, I have started printing these in PETG-CF with a 0.6 mm nozzle (hardened, of course). I find 0.15 mm layers to work the best in that case.

  • The single-pocket base prints in standard orientation without support or brim.

  • The triple-pocket bases print best flipped upside down onto the top face. You may get some rough surface texture on the inside of the pocket due to overhangs (especially with PETG) but that will be hidden by your lyre/hoop. If this bothers you, feel free to use support in those areas.
