Plan your microphone position

Check space, clamp fit, reach and weight. Measure in millimetres and grams; the starting numbers are examples you can replace.

Use my own measurements

Top view from your measurements. The line shows how far the arm reaches. Two alternative positions: a stand, or an arm clamped at the back edge.

Fits

Both positions meet these measurements

Fits: Stand space100 × 100 mm base in 300 × 250 mm clear space.
Fits: Clamp thickness25 mm desk; clamp range 10–60 mm.
Fits: Arm reach400 mm needed; 500 mm usable reach.
Fits: Supported load600 g on an arm rated up to 1000 g. Also check the arm’s minimum load.

Check the desk material and underside clearance separately. A clamp can fit the thickness and still be unsuitable for glass, a bevel or a hollow desktop.
