I have always wanted to play harp while I was playing guitar and, for awhile I have experimented with several different setups but, finally I have found the perfect tool for the job.
The Harp Arm holds the harp but, I can only move it in or out or angle it up or down to get access to my mouth. It has always been a problem to get the mic in perfect position for doing vocals, switching between harp and, vocals but, not anymore!
This little piece of gear lets me position the mic anywhere and, I mean anywhere I want or need it and, it locks down tight, no movement, which is critical for performing.
I always deal with Zack Davidson, he is a whiz when I'm searching for gear!

This solves many issues with drum mic placement, especially paired with a CrashGuard. It also helps with other mic placements involving stereo bars and grand piano mic placement. They're a bit too pricey to have one on every stand, but having a handful in the studio just about covers every application.

As a long-time photographer, I wondered why Ball-Heads had not made it to the microphone world?
I really prefer them for my monopod and tripods because of their flexibility.
Well here is a solution! This Triad-Orbit Micro 2/M2-R is well-made, feels good and is made to connect with microphones and mic stands as well as photo tripods if you want to go that way. Imagine: position the mic exactly where you want it with no compromises! How cool is that? This little rig is sturdy and holds firm. Let me tell you something. The picky USA-based, high-end Earthworks Audio microphone company paired three microphones from their stable, the ICON, the ICON Pro and the Ethos with this exact unit. You just know it's quality. Earthworks does not compromise their standards for convenience. You'll be pleased with this one... trust this long-time ball-head photographer on this choice! It's good.

This adapter is top quality and built like a tank. I was surprised at how solid it feels. Provides me to position my stereo pencil mic's just where I want.

Sweetwater rocks as always!
