The 512-BBA's steel construction provides stability while supporting a studio or broadcast mic weighing up to 3 lb (including a clip/mount).

Since the 512-BBA is compatible with 5/8"-27 and 3/8"-16 threads, it works with most mic clips and shockmounts. It attaches to a desk or table via an extrawide C-clamp that utilizes an antiscratch pad to prevent damaging the finish of your worksurface. For nonpermanent setups, the 512-BBA can be fully collapsed to ensure compact storage between sessions.
