RØDE PSA1+ Studio Microphone Arm

In this episode, we have a look at the RODE PSA1+ studio microphone arm for live streaming, podcasting, voice over recordings, or any other case where you need to capture great audio at your desk. This is an updated and more “premium” stand over the original PSA1+, one of the most popular microphone arms on the market.

If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.

Triad Orbit Light and Microphone Stands

At NAB 2016, we talked with Ryan at the Triad-Orbit booth. Triad-Orbit makes an ecosystem of premium stands for lights, microphones, and most other production equipment. If you’re investing for the long-term, Triad-Orbit stands and accessories are worth a look.

Special thanks to Scott Vanderbilt who was kind enough to bring his brand new Sony FS5 camera to film this series and schlep it around most of the Las Vegas convention center - no small feat.
