Freestanding Desktop Microphone Boom Arm – Weighted Base Design (No Clamps Required), Dual-Pivot Articulation for Precise Positioning, 3.3 lb Maximum Load Capacity, Integrated Cable Management Clips, Includes 1/4″-20 & 5/8″ Thread Adapters (Podcasting, Voiceover, Streaming & Broadcast Studio Use)
The RODE DS3 is a premium, compact desktop studio boom arm designed for ultra-quiet, flexible microphone positioning across podcasting setups, streaming stations, broadcast studios, and professional voiceover booths. Engineered for maximum stability without the need for edge-of-desk clamps or permanent drill mounts, the DS3 utilizes a heavy, balanced cast base that rests securely on any flat desktop surface, supporting microphone setups weighing up to 3.3 lb (1.5 kg).
Featuring dual adjustable pivot points with smooth tension controls, the DS3 allows users to effortlessly articulate, raise, lower, and lock their microphone into the optimal acoustic zone while isolating physical desk vibrations. Integrated cable management clips run along the arm to route XLR and USB cables neatly, ensuring a clean, broadcast-ready workspace free of clutter. The arm is equipped with versatile mounting adapters—including a 1/4″-20 thread adapter and a 5/8″ babypin adapter—making it directly compatible with standard microphone clips, broadcast shock mounts, cameras, lights, and desktop recording accessories.
