RODE DS3 is a weighted-base desktop microphone arm that puts the mic exactly where it needs to be without clamping onto the edge of a desk — and without the tipping risk that comes with a heavier mic on a lightweight stand.
Stable without a desk clamp
A heavy, weighted metal base holds the whole arm in place without needing a clamp or any drilling — the right call for desks with no accessible edge, or a desktop too thick for a standard clamp. A precision ball head with 360-degree articulation and a central locking mechanism lets you set the mic at any angle and lock it in one motion.
Cables stay out of the way
Integrated cable routing keeps XLR and USB leads tucked inside the arm, so there's no extra cable crossing the desk next to a keyboard or controller. Universal 3/8", 1/4" and 5/8" threads fit most studio and podcasting microphones without extra adapters.
