This kit is specifically designed for the DR-100 and DR-100MKII. Compatibility with the MKIII may vary due to chassis size differences.
It is recommended to clean the fur by gentle shaking or using a soft brush. Do not soak in water or use harsh detergents.
The shock mount is designed to hold the unit securely while allowing visibility of the recorder's screen and access to primary controls.
Yes, the Rycote Lyre suspension mount is detachable from the handle and shoe adapter for different configuration needs.
The base features a 3/8 inch threaded mount, which is standard for most professional audio and video tripods.
Ensure the Mini Windjammer is fully covering the microphone capsules and is not obstructed by the frame.
Check that the 3/8 inch adapter is tightened securely and verify the camera's hot shoe lock is fully engaged.
Check that the cables or the recorder itself are not touching the shock mount frame, as this can transmit vibrations.
To set up the kit, first slide the Tascam DR-100 into the shock mount, ensuring the Lyre suspension is centered and secure. Attach the soft grip handle to the base if handheld use is required, or utilize the 3/8 inch hot shoe adapter to mount the unit to a camera's accessory port. For the best audio results, ensure the Windjammer is pulled taut over the microphone capsules without blocking the recorder's status LEDs. To care for the equipment, gently shake out the synthetic fur of the Windjammer to remove dust after outdoor use. If the fur becomes matted, use a wide-toothed comb to restore its volume and effectiveness. Store the kit in a protective pouch to prevent the Lyre suspension components from being crushed or deformed during travel.
