An Accessory Dedicated to the Neumann Miniature Clip Mic Ecosystem
The MC 8 serves as a specialized mount for piano configurations within the Neumann MCM system. It meets the needs of musicians and sound engineers seeking a stable, clean, and quick-to-deploy mounting solution without adding multiple stands and clamps around the instrument.
Intended Uses and Pianists
This clip is particularly suited for stage, live recordings, rehearsals, and studio sessions where you want to position the microphone as close as possible to the strings while maintaining a neat setup. It is suitable for both upright and grand pianos whenever a simple and reproducible mounting is desired.
Precise Orientation and Reliable Hold

Thanks to the swivel and 45-degree increment locking, you can adjust the gooseneck angle sharply and repeatably. This is practical for quickly restoring a consistent microphone placement from one session to another and for fine-tuning the balance between attack, resonance, and ambiance.
