Gator Frameworks Broadcast Boom Arm for Podcasts & Recording

Got this mic stand for causal gaming and it works great. There were no instructions included in the box which wasn’t a problem for me because I had prior knowledge of this kinda stuff but it would be nice for someone who didn’t.

We have 3 of these. Used on a daily basis for online music lessons and production for podcast and broadcast. I sent two previous ones back. Gator has always been a brand I trust on the budget side of things. This is their lightest weight, most budget-friendly version. I wouldn't go any cheaper than this. Only time will tell in regards to longevity. So far, so good!

This works fantastically for my sure SM7B.

My main issue with this stand is that it is very difficult to get the mic to screw onto it. There is too much give on the piece of metal and absolutely no way to grip it so I can't get the microphone to screw on without the whole piece spinning. I thought I had it but this morning I discovered my microphone (very expensive one) had fallen off overnight and was hanging by the chord. Luckily I had the arm extended past my computer because it would have caused damage. Update: I was finally able to get the piece to screw the mic onto the arm. Now the joints are too weak to keep the mic in the orientation I need for my recording. I wish I did not purchase this product.

The stand is built pretty well, besides the screws that I had to screw-in to make it more sturdy its a good microphone stand for any low-end microphone. However for a Rode NT-1 it's not strong enough to hold it. I can't put my microphone any direction but facing down (which is fine) but shows that the strength of the stand can not really hold a microphone that's $400 +, and in that range it would be better to go with the Rode Arm. Maybe the stronger version of this is good, but I can't recommend this stand for people with Rode NT-1s, and microphones of the same caliber.

Muy buena inversión! Funciona muy bien y es bastante estable.

yes

Can't use this stand due to the cable causing audio to drop. Drops about 25% which is too much when using a good microphone like shure smb7. Why on earth you wouldn't put the best mic cable possible in a premium stand is beyond me.

A entrega foi rápida e o material é muito bom. Recomendo!

Buen soporte para micrófono, los materiales son fuertes, es acero y aguanta sin problema el peso. Buena movilidad.

J'adore ce pied, je l'ai acheté pour y fixer un Micro Sure special podcast pour mes cours de piano et chant et mes concerts et interviews en live stream, et cela a changé ma vie et mon experience en terme d'organisation, de gain de place, de precision sonore. Top!

The first time I got this item, I was very confused on why I could not tighten the middle knob, when I took a closer look, I found that the screw opposite of the knob is turning as I also turned the knob. I attempted to tighten it with a screwdriver, but that didnt work either So I talked to Amazon ,and since they didnt have a exchange feature for this product (weird I know ) , I had to refund and buy another one. The 2nd one came and it has the exact same problem..............
