TLM microphones are often chosen for their precision and level of detail, which makes mechanical noises more audible as soon as the environment is not perfectly isolated. This elastic suspension fits within this "studio" logic: it complements the microphone by adding essential mechanical isolation to preserve the clarity of the recording and avoid low-frequency disturbances related to vibrations.
This suspension is intended for home studios as well as professional studios recording vocals, podcasts, dubbing, acoustic guitars, or sensitive close-miking. It is particularly useful whenever the microphone is mounted on a stand placed near a passageway, keyboard, work surface, or in any situation where micro-impacts can travel into the signal.
Thanks to its suspension principle, the microphone is decoupled from the support: structural vibrations are attenuated before reaching the microphone body. The result: a cleaner signal, less unintentional "rumble," and a recording easier to work with during mixing, requiring fewer heavy corrections. The suspension also allows for confident repositioning of the microphone while maintaining stable support, a real advantage for vocal and instrument recording.
