Recommend mic stands?
I have On Stage mic stands and they drift down on the mic side, I guess its the weight - is that normal? Anyone recommend a brand that doesn't?
Thanks! |
Have you tried adjusting the counterweight?
|
No. I didn't know they had them - thanks. Found them online :)
|
Actually, I was just kinda thinking about putting, like, a small kitten on the end of your stand.
|
JanVigne- sorry didn't know you were kidding but it worked out any way:)
Actually I tried to use a couple of vintage plumb-bobs I had gotten from ebay as they looked cool before posting the question, |
The question was honest. The kittens were just cats.
Glad it worked out. |

If you can pull the boom out of the clutch and insert it going the opposite direction the weight of the mic will tighten the clutch and that might eliminate the sagging issue. Fran |
Couple Mic Stand Suggestions
Aloha,
This is a great low profile guitar mic stand for live or studio. Doesn't take up much space & can easily handle heavier L/D's because it's sturdy: http://www.guitarcenter.com/DR-Pro-D...41-i1170321.gc For a vocal studio mic stand that is very strong, portable & won't tip over the Ultimate MC-125 is a great one that can handle anything & is easily moved out of the way for moving back to the board: http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/MC125/ Hope that helps. alohachris |
Thanks Fran - I will check it out. I just bought an extra mic stand so I can do that, duplicate the set up of the original mic and then simply transfer the mic. I have the floor position noted with x's and jotted down measurements. And its free:)
aloha - thanks for your recommends, I may want to upgrade and will check out your recommends.:) |
Anybody use the On Stage SB9600? This looks like a really nice studio stand for less than $100. Any on line negative comments were about the weight, but that would be a good thing in a studio stand in my opinion.

No but you can get weights for their stands and I think its comes to less - and then you can remove it if you want.
