Rugged & Versatile

Microphone placement is often a pain. After years of fussing with inadequate stereo mount bars, I bit the bullet and dropped a wad on the Triad Orbit Series O2 Dual-Arm Orbital Boom. (Ordered from Sweetwater.) To be clear, I bought the O2 Boom only. Triad Orbit says this can be retro-fitted to any standard mic stand. Since I already have several mic stands, I took them at their word.

To do a retrofit, you'll need Triad Orbit's iO-RA Retrofit coupler (currently $). It works as advertised. Unfortunately, I'm a mechanical dunce, so I had trouble figuring out how to operate it. Which brings up my first nitpick. The iO-RA Retrofit coupler has brief user instructions printed on the side of the packaging. It's not clear from these instructions how the coupler works. (There are better instructions on the Triad Orbit website. But it's not obvious where to find them.) Puzzling over this stopped me cold. A call to Sweetwater, however, quickly resolved the impasse. The iO-RA Retrofit coupler is simplicity itself. Once I overcame my mechanical nitwittery, attaching it to my K & M mic stand was a snap.

On to the O2 Dual-Arm Orbital Boom. It's heavy. I find this reassuring. If you need a mic boom that can double as a cudgel, then the O2 is for you. It's all metal, with rubberized grips for the boom arm extensions. There are three articulating joints. Two are 360

Awesome Idea

Back in 70s and 80s looking at some music programs on T.V I always watched Peter, Paul and Mary isn't this one mic stand with three mics on it and I say to myself how awesome it'll be having that type of hardware but I am sure these idea at that time were probably either custom for them or available but expensive . I didn't know where to find one until I chanced upon a sweetwater product brochure with Triad Orbit in one small part of a page . I didn't even pay much attention to it for sometime until I a product caught my eye and it was this one .
For someone not really doing a regular or professional gig the price is not a walk in the park but who cares , I bought it . I used a standar mic stand which until now served it's purpose as it's stand to save money . My daughter and I use all triad orbits in a weekly basis ;

Problem solver

The combination of great engineering and superb customer service (answered tech and placement questions by phone, live, immediately- no wait times!) makes this product worth every penny and then some. My use was to attach Traid's wall plate to the rafters in my basement studio to save floor space. With Triad's extension elevator shaft I can mic artists who are standing or seated and even mic instruments on the floor such as a harmonium or drum set. Easy up and out of the way and always accessible rather than searching through the dreaded music equipment closet!

All these stands and booms are outstanding. I record in a small walk-in closet and these guys are real space savers!

Push the limits

This equipment is very tough and diverse, and useful for all kinds of purposes and arrangements. At the moment I have a condenser on one arm, and reflection filter on the other. Both arms are directed vertically and the angles are as steep as I could make them because the fulcrum tighteners cannot hold the booms if the angles are shallow. I have to cinch the tighteners by wrapping cloth and use pliers to tighten them down enough to keep them from drifting. The design is just on the edge of not being heavy enough for this job. The whole unit is connected to a Triad-Orbit IO-C Clamp IO Quick-Change Base, facing down from an under-table edge. The arrangement is holding fine but I don't bump it! I love the flexibility and engineering of these units, and don't get me wrong, they are very strong and very well made. But you have to finesse them, they will not hold big condensers unless you have short distances and vertical angles. I guess thats why people use big studio tripods... but here, space won't permit. These units are the only thing that would work in tight quarters, but you got to plan a bit. Thanks for Tyler Berggren helping as usual.
