Ive seen a few videos now where the studio engineer "flips" the mic over,so instead of the mic being upright and the lead coming from the bottom the whole mic is turned over.

I can understand this is probably personal preference but what are the benifits of this?
Ive wanted to know this for so long!

Cheers

its just a way to position it better, you do it to get a better angle

to hang/place a mic suicide-style
has nothing to do with gettin' any benefit from it.

the only benefit would be, that there's no real need:
for a clip, stand, or shockmount etc.

"some people say"
when using a tube-mic for longer sessions,
suicide-style keeps the heat away from the
capsule etc.
