In this episode we do a quick overview of RODE’s DS2 desktop mic stand. This premium stand is a solid step up from the average desktop mic stand in terms of design, functionality, and overall quality. In this video we’ll walk through the DS2’s feature set as well as test its stability, durability, and resistance to picking up extraneous sound and vibrations. Let’s take a closer look!
