Microphone Stand Parts Leg Clutch

[Telescoping] This is the best microphone stand. High quality and well designed in every detail. The clutch is particularly well designed, as it allows for one-handed operation, and is easily repositionable once locked. K&M must stand for Kwality & (Extremely Well) Made.

[Round] Love how sturdy this stand is. Have only used it once, but the clutch on this stand is a game changer for my clientele.

This comes in super clutch for an FX3 Multicam. It will allow you to still use a microphone to capture audio without the need of blocking one audio channel.

[None] This is a simple microphone stand.

[0.035 lb] The sleeves for the Roadtrip are essential for smooth leg extensions. They are the only wear parts that eventually need replacement. Dead easy to attach.

[2.2 lb / 1 kg] While Atlas now has this stand produced in China, the quality of construction seems like it is still the same as always. The one place where a lot of the other mic stand companies fall short if in the clutch mechanism for raising and lowering the mic stand. This has the solid, threaded clutch that is on all the Atlas stands I have ever owned, going back to the 1970s. I added a 12 black gooseneck and a short boom stand as options for added versatility to my boom stand---both of which I highly suggest. If you are seeking a short mic stand that will last throughout your career and one that has added flexibility, look to the Atlas DMS7E.

[Screw-Knob] I bought this because I needed a mic stand i could really lean on without it slipping and it does this well. You can crank down the clutch and it's not going to move without some serious weight/force on it. The clutch is strong, has a good tactile grip for you to hold on to, and is servicable. Lastly, it has a feature that doesn't allow the mic to just drop if you loosen the clutch. it will slowly lower as to not damage your fancy mic (or make a horible sound throgh the PA.

[Stainless Steel] This C-Stand met with a bit of typical online consternation when it first was introduced. People were saying, “Why do we need another C-Stand?” Well, there are many reasons. It is built like a tank. The soft blue rubber grip is a big welcome when carrying it. Initially we were looking for a C-Stand that had a rocky mountain leg, and came apart so the bottom of the stand could be stored in our van and used as a turtle stand. There wasn’t anything from Matthews, American, Kupo or Manfrotto that would do this. After watching Savage’s demo video I was hooked. Self leveling leg, a short separate stand and adapter mount. All wonderful features that have been useful. The ability to slide a light unit completely into a corner of room can be a lifesaver when lighting in small spaces. The newly designed grip head, made like the jaws of a Cardellini clamp is more useful than traditional style grip heads, in that it can hold foam core, reflectors and round extension with ease-not damaging them in the process. I use the hook to hold the power supply for Aputure 300 lights. There is only a couple little things I do wish fo in the future. It would be nice for the hook assembly to fold up and lock in place. Currently it is loose and sometimes gets in the way when not needed. Also, although very stable and very well manufactured, I’d like to see some of the edges of the metal pieces be a little smoother in fit and finish. Otherwise, this is truly the evolution of the standard C-Stand. A great piece of grip kit, and I will surely get more in the near future!
