SE Reflection filters????

Do any of you guys own one ?

I thought I would ask about and see what you guys who do own them have them attached to

When I first bought mine I attatched it to a good quality mic stand but it was far to heavy and I didnt feel safe haveing it on there it wobbled about with the slightest touch and its not something you would want crashing to the floor.  

Has any one else come in to this same problem ?

I know they make a stand that holds it but it costs £250!!!!!! Thats a crazzy price and to be honest it wasnt doing that good ajob of holding the relection filter there  was still that look that it didnt look safe on it.

I started to think hmmmmm what could I do

I came up with this solution that If any one who is haveing this problem may like to try

I bought a very cheep PA speeker stand for £20 got a bit of Square metal bar cut at about 12inches I then hemmerd it in to the top of the stand and it was solid! ( gave it a couple of tac welds just to be sure though but I am sure it would have been ok with out it )


I then atatched the Clamp from the SE reflection filter to the Square metal bar siting out the top of the stand and it sits with no movement at all!!!!! You can then move the The stand up and down with ease depending on what hight the person seing it is......  ITS AWESOME COST £20 TO BUILD IT WILL NEVER FALL OVER EVER!!! AND COSTS NOTHING LIKE THE £250 SE WANT FOR THERE CHEEP ASS STAND!!!

Anyways I was interested to see if you guys have come across anything your self to mount it to to make it safe and stable ?

If any one is interested in what I did I can show some pics for you to make your own  :)

That, my friend, is a genius, DIY, better than factory, customized masterpiece ;)

Nice customisation Norrie

I know the feling man I dont have much room hear eather.

I picked up a speeker stand for £20 and got the bit of metal from my local welders and that was that.

I also made a nice adapterif I take the reflection filter off

Slide Slide a Tube I had made with a flat plate on it over the top of It and on the plate is I have attached a thread that I can then attatch My AER compact 60 amp on since the amps are made to go on mic stands it seemed a good Idea and is a lot safer to incase some one bashes in to it :)

Reflexion Filter is basically a portable device for recording live sound sources with minor ambient atmosphere. This is an advanced composite wall which is positioned behind a microphone stand blocking the;changing role, the composition is supplied with the product.

Shangrilrao.....

Thanks for your post we know what they are.......

This was just a conversation about how we mount out refliection fiters as they are heavy and novery safe on just a standard Mic stand and the one that SE sell is over priced and not very safe for the job compared to what Jungfriend and my self have done

I was just interested to see others experiances in mounting it......

Thanks though :)

Norrie

You selling any of them ?

My self would be interested in another one and I know some people who would be interested aswell

Norrie

HAHA If the girl comes with it you can guarentee I will be geting a few of them ;)

Here is another alternative product for $99 - anyone have experience with this?

That portable vocal booth looks cool. It should also come with like a Mickey mouse hat with big foam ears to block whats comin back at you from behind:)

The correct link is editorSkeys.com

Your link doesn't work. Can you update?

Norrie,
I like my Reflexion filter, but there are other products out there that might pique your interest. I have been seriously considering trading my Reflexion filter for the Portable Vocal Booth from www.editorkeys.com. The reason why is that the Portable Vocal Booth not only reduces standing waves and early reflections, but it also rejects exterior noise. Now that is their claim and the proof won't come until I test it, but it is something I need due to my racket loving neighbors who think nothing of firing up the lawnmower, power washer, or any other kind of power tool any old time of day. At $152 it is definitely less expensive than soundproofing, and a lot less work.
 

 
You can see the extra layer of foam that is inside, and darn if it doesn't look a lot like the Relexion Filter, so it should mount just the same. I don't think the girl comes with it.

 I've been using one of these AE-F Reflection Filter I got off ebay a while ago I don't know if they still sell them there but it's been working nicely and I got it pretty cheap too. I'm not much of a singer singer! but I do like screaming my vocals over my bands music. Mines a greyish silver and the foam is like the one of the ends of that I guess that's their new one but I'm really pleased with it.

That was easy enough:
