A brief history.
The Amp-Clamp was created out of neccessity in early 2002. After years of hassle, lack-lustre backline sound and the frustration of "never getting the same sound twice", I figured it was time to look into the causes behind on-stage issues like; raised-floor feedback, boominess and coloration of amplified mic signals.
And so the AmpClamp was born.
Not only do boomstands and vocal mic stands prove to be
highly cumbersome, unstable and annoying to re-align every time you need to mic your amp or cabinet, but the audible improvement in clarity of sound as well as fast, consistent, precision placement were reason enough to develop an alternate method of mic'ing guitar and bass live and in the studio.
Why AmpClamp?
- Consistent placement; effortlessly find your speaker's optimal dynamic "sweet spot" every time
- Stationary placement; allows your speaker cabinet to be moved without loss of critical microphone placement
- Low profile; will attach to any speaker cabinet (even amps without a lip) from small combos to 4x12 cabinets
- Eliminates stage clutter; never trip over your microphone stand on stage again (clumsy bandmates included)
- Eliminates raised floor feedback & "foot-steps" from hollow stages
- Eliminates Mic-Stand "hum"
- Setup and tear down in seconds; light-weight, portable and easy to carry - fits in any gig bag or case
It's the original, tried-and-tested mic mount used on professional tours, stages and studios around the globe. Since it's creation, there have been many imitation mic mounting system(s) introduced, but none with which you get the ease of use, reliability and consistency in placement as the AmpClamp.
