There is an optional microphone stand bracket for the T1 ToneMatch Audio Engine.

This is actually two pieces.

• The microphone stand bracket that attaches to a microphone stand and a
• The mounting bar that connects to that.

The T1 ToneMatch Audio Engine sits on that mounting bar.

• Sight Lines and the T1^® - Owners talking about placement of the T1® on the stage using the Microphone Stand Bracket.

Hints

• The bracket that sits parallel to the floor has a bevel on the top. The bevel should run down, facing you. If the bevel runs down away from you, the bracket is upside down and the T1 ToneMatch^® Audio Engine will not sit properly on top of it.
• Secure the ToneMatch® cable to your microphone stand, above the T1 ToneMatch^® Audio Engine. This will help keep it secure on the bracket and help to keep it from hitting the floor if it becomes dislodged from the bracket.
• If you use a microphone stand with a wider than usual diameter, try removing the inserts in the clamp. — Source: dberch on the Forum

Securing the T1® to the Bracket

• The bracket that sits parallel to the floor has a bevel on the top. The bevel should run down, facing you. If the bevel runs down away from you, the bracket is upside down and the T1 ToneMatch^® Audio Engine will not sit properly on top of it.

correct - bevel running down, facing you

incorrect (upside down)- bevel on opposite side, away from you

This is how I secure the T1® to the T1® Microphone Stand Bracket

1. There is a velcro strap on the black ToneMatch cable.
2. I use the velcro to secure the ToneMatch cable to the microphone stand just above the Microphone Stand Adapter (the thing that clamps around the mic stand).
3. Then I insert the ToneMatch cable into the T1®. It locks into place.
4. At this point, most people would put the T1® on the bracket and attach the other cables.
5. I insert all the other cables into the T1® before I put it on the bracket. I do it this way because I have all my cables strapped to the microphone stand (I don't take them off between gigs). So there's no hanging stress from those either.
6. Finally, I set the T1® on top of the bracket.

In the picture above, I am using all the inputs and the cables are heavy. But since I have all the cables secured by a velcro strap, there's no chance that the T1® will come off the microphone stand bracket.

The white cable is a network cable (Cat-5) instead of the ToneMatch® cable

Here's how I have one of my microphone stands setup. The T1® Microphone Stand Bracket is attached and I never remove it.

All the cables are also strapped to the microphone stand. I leave the cables attached all the time. This saves a great deal of time during setup and teardown.

I used a white background so that you could see the wires. Normally they don't stand out like this visually. Notice that even if the T1® were to get knocked off the bracket the cables are acting as safety tethers.

Ready to Pack Up

You can see that the cables are strapped to the microphone stand.

Packed, ready to zip up

The black bag is one of the original Cylindrical Radiator® bags that came with my L1®. Years ago I got some heavy duty bags for the Cylindrical Radiator® and it turns out that the stock bags work great for holding microphone and light stands.

Remember to pack the Bracket (arm) in the T1® Lid.
