I’m seeking advice on a good mic to use in an orchestra pit setting. I’d prefer a clip-on for mobility. Thank you in advance.

Check out the DPA 4099 with the universal clip mount. That’s what I’ve been using on a banjo for a few years and have been happy with it

Ned Luberecki uses the DPAs, here is how he mounts it.

FWIW, Ned has now switched to the Neumann MCM114 (which sound amazing)

I have used an AKG mic for years, and I believe it is the PA-70. My son-in-law makes sculptures out of diner forks, so I took one and made the bracket shown below. It's not as easy to bend the fork as some people think, but not that hard.
