ASM1 - Shockmount
The ASM1 is an adjustable shock mount designed to be used on and off the boom pole. On the boom, it can utilize the 1/4" 20 or 3/8" threaded mounts. Off the boom, you can disassemble it to utilize the GoPro-compatible hinge and pair it with any GoPro-compatible mounting solution for plant mic-ing. The adjustable sliding suspensions means it's ready to work with any number of microphones and help keep them balanced and isolated from any rumble.
Our Review
Deity ASM1 Shockmount — Affordable Vibration Isolation for the Home Studio or Remote Set
The gist: A metal-body shockmount with dual adjustable suspensions and a GoPro-compatible hinge that reduces handling and desk vibration for remote workers who record podcasts, interviews, or voice content with a boom-mounted mic.
- Effective isolation: Dual sliding offset suspensions redirect vibration before it reaches the capsule — noticeably cleaner audio on desk setups where keyboard and desk rumble are common problems.
- Standard thread mounts: Fits 1/4"-20 and 3/8" boom poles and desk stands, making it compatible with virtually any existing home studio stand.
- Dual-use hinge: The detachable GoPro-compatible hinge turns it into a flexible plant mic mount for recording in non-studio environments — useful for remote work from hotels or co-working spaces.
- Budget-friendly at ~$39: Adds professional-grade vibration isolation without the premium cost of broadcast-market alternatives.
CineD covered the ASM1 at launch, noting its adjustable suspension design as a practical solution for solo operators who need reliable mic isolation at a low entry price.
Best for: Remote podcasters, video interviewers, and content creators using small-to-medium pencil condenser microphones (up to 0.87" diameter) on boom stands or desk arms. Skip it if: your microphone has a larger body diameter — the suspension clamps won't close securely. Runs ~$39 — check the current price before buying.
