Avid DS3 Studio Mic Stand

The Avid DS3 is a desktop microphone arm designed for streamers, podcasters and home-studio creators who need a compact, weighted base instead of a floor stand. It supports microphones, webcams and cameras up to 2.64 lb and folds flat for storage or transport.

Universal Adapters & Allen Wrench

Included 3/8" to 5/8" and 3/8" to 1/4" thread adapters let the arm accept most broadcast mics and consumer webcams without extra parts. A supplied Allen wrench locks the two pivot points securely, replacing traditional knobs that can loosen over time.

2.64 lb Load Rating

The stand’s maximum load of 2.64 lb determines whether your microphone and shock mount combination will stay stable; heavier broadcast assemblies will exceed this limit and require a stronger mount.

Questions about this item

Does the steel arm or the weighted 2.4 lb base need any periodic tightening or lubrication?

The stand uses an included Allen wrench for secure adjustments at two pivot points; no lubrication is mentioned for the steel construction or base.

What load limit will be reached first if I keep a heavy microphone mounted all day?

The maximum load capacity is 2.64 lb, which is the limiting factor for any attached microphone or camera.

How much heat or noise does the stand produce when it stays in position for hours?

The all-steel, non-powered stand generates no heat and has no moving parts that create noise during extended use.
