Rode DS2 Desktop Studio Arm for Microphones, Cameras and Accessories

Compact Desktop Studio Arm for Broadcast and Podcast Microphones The RODE DS2 Desktop Studio Arm is a compact, freestanding boom arm designed to provide stable and quiet microphone positioning for podcasting, broadcast radio, voiceover recording, streaming, and content creation. With a weighted base that eliminates the need for clamps or desk mounting hardware, it offers a clean, flexible solution for positioning microphones, lights, cameras, or mobile devices directly on your desk. Freestanding Heavy Base with No Clamp Required Unlike clamp-mounted boom arms, the DS2 features a solid weighted base that supports gear up to 31.7 oz without attaching to the edge of your desk. This design makes it ideal for shared workspaces, home studios, and broadcast desks where permanent mounting is not preferred. The stable base keeps your setup secure while maintaining a professional appearance. Flexible Positioning with Dual Pivot Points The arm incorporates two adjustable pivot joints that allow precise positioning for optimal mic placement. With up to 15 inches of vertical reach, you can raise, lower, and angle your microphone to match seated or standing positions. This flexibility supports dynamic broadcast workflows and helps maintain consistent audio quality during long sessions. Low-Noise Operation for Recording Environments Engineered for studio and broadcast use, the DS2 operates quietly during adjustments, minimizing unwanted mechanical noise that could interfere with live recordings or streaming sessions. The smooth pivot movement allows subtle positioning changes without distracting sounds entering the microphone. Supports Microphones, Lights, Phones, and Cameras The included 3/8" to 1/4" thread adapter expands compatibility, allowing the DS2 to support a wide range of equipment. It is suitable for broadcast microphones, compact LED lights, smartphone mounts, small cameras, and other production accessories. Integrated cable management guides help maintain a neat and organized desktop setup. Designed for Modern Content Creation Workflows Whether used in a podcast studio, voiceover booth, gaming setup, or livestream production environment, the DS2 provides reliable support without permanent installation. Its compact footprint makes it well suited for desks with limited space while still offering the adjustability needed for professional audio recording.
