Tomorrow, I'm recording someone playing acoustic guitar, and I may not have access to a mic stand. Can I just hold the mic? I know my hand will get tired, but it's a really simple part for a four minute song that I need to record. Btw I'm using a RODE NT2-a tomorrow (not mine, I'm borrowing it).
mic stands
How cool is that ? ;)
Please send me one for Chrismas !
Shout out to Tama as they are supporting RO now. Looking through their hardware line-up called Iron Works, I see solid looking stands we might be interested in. I never seem to have enough stands, these look well made and well suited for tight spots.
If anyone gets a chance to use this stuff, please share your opinions. The tripod cast base straight stands caught my eye.
Hi All
I'm trying to get away from the old fashioned lyric sheet stand. .yes I know I shouldn't need one!
Hi, I'm new to recording. I just purchased two of these mic stands MICROPHONE STAND-25900-300-55
Im not sure if they are tall enough for acoustic guitar recording. Have i bought the wrong type of mic stand?
Thanks.

I don't get it, why would anyone pay that much for a mic stand? Because it has a counterbalance and noiseless wheels? Anyone ever heard of sandbags and WD-40?
Little by little, I'm discarding some of my more budget brands of mic stands and replacing them.
I own one Hercules stand (tall boom), and two Atlas booms.
The eazy adjustment of the Hercules is nice, as is the Atlas counterweight for my 414s, Bluebird, and other heavy/oversized mics.
So one thing that I'd like to be able to do is have a mic stand on my desktop whose base is a few feet away from my sitting position with a boom that extends all the way toward me for singing and maybe another one for a stereo mic stand. This would be convenient for practicing and reviewing practice, or maybe for making youtube videos or something.
I have been putting my RODE K2 on a [url=link removed A50[/url]. I noticed on another thread someone calling the K2 a "boat anchor" and I quite agree. The A50 does a great job keeping the K2 nice and stable, but it takes up a lot of real estate in my small studio. Does anyone have a suggestion for a stand with a smaller footprint that's still pretty stable.
