wow - i was exactly the same stupid - unfiddled the thread......then i got a knot in my head about the mess and didn't use my mic until i found this tutorial. Man - what a relief - super tutorial :). i had to re-thread a very similar shock-mount that was with a NT-1a set. thank you very much!

Fun fact, I over-torqued the joint on the mount because it kept slipping, and ripped the threading out. I now have my mic taped to the boomstick. 😅

If you start with the hooks further down, there will be enough tension to prevent them from slipping out when you stretch the elastic band into the hooks you started with! I just figured it out, but wouldn't have done anything without your tutorial. Thank you, it really helped!

Very helpful video. Mine was driving me crazy because no matter how many times I tied and re-tied, the mount would not stay stable. Finally realized that the problem was my strings had stretched too loose, so I folded them over and double-threaded everything. Voila.

Hey thanks for doing this. I need to replace my elastic strings. Where are these screws you tightened? I had my same model mic slip out of the holder and unfortunately hit the base of the mic stand. It all happened so fast I am not sure where it hit the mic, but hopefully, when I test it later, it works OK. So I am wondering if these screws you mentioned are loose....Thanks. Phil PS...After watching some other videos on this, yours is clearly the best and easiest to follow. Kudos and well done...

Doing this on my Rode NT2, each of the rings just had to have one hook where the clearance was smaller than the others, and no matter how hard I pulled the band, I just couldn't get it narrow enough. So had to use pliers and a screwdriver to open them up. Managed one, but on the second one the hook sheared off. Cue wha-wha-wha trumpet and Rode execs snorting into their Balters.
