Place the weighted base on a suitable stable surface and use the two pivot points to position your equipment. Integrated cable guides help keep cables close to the arm.

One stand for different recording setups

The 3/8-inch mounting thread and included 1/4-inch adapter support compatible microphones, cameras and accessories. Check the mounting connection and keep the total load within 950 g.

Support the Complete Mounted Assembly

Add the microphone, clip or shock mount and any attached accessory when checking the maximum supported load. The DS2’s own stand weight is not its payload rating. Keep the mounted equipment within the listed limit and place the base fully on a stable supporting surface.

Route the Cable Through Each Movement

Use the integrated cable guides to keep the lead close to the arm while allowing slack at the pivot points. Reposition the arm with the complete cable path in mind, keeping plugs free of tension and the base clear of the desk edge.

Change Equipment with the Correct Thread

The main mounting thread is 3/8-inch, with a supplied 1/4-inch adapter for appropriate equipment. Check the thread and total mounted weight together when fitting a compatible camera or microphone accessory. A matching thread alone does not establish that an oversized setup is suitable.

Choose a Freestanding Desk Position

DS2 uses a weighted base instead of gripping the desk edge. Place it where the arm can reach the intended speaking or filming position without crowding the keyboard or controls. Its desktop footprint and adjustment differ from a long clamp-mounted broadcast arm.

Check the Microphone and Desk Mount

Match the microphone weight and mounting thread to the stand or arm, including any adapter or accessory. Check clamp clearance and reach so the microphone can move into position without pulling its cable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is a microphone included?

This listing is the desktop stand or arm. The microphone and any separately required microphone clip or shock mount are separate purchases.

How do I choose a compatible support?

Combine the microphone, mount and attached accessory weights, then check the support’s actual capacity and mounting thread. The weight of the stand itself is not the microphone payload limit.

Does it clamp to the desk?

DS2 uses a weighted freestanding desktop base.

What is the published load rating?

DS2 supports a maximum combined load of 950 g.

How are the suggested microphones and accessories used?

They are alternative setup choices. Match the actual microphone, mount, cable and support together, and avoid buying an extra shock mount when the microphone kit already includes it.
