Does this have the adapter I need to connect this to a RODE VideoMicro 2 MIC?
Asked by: Larry
The RODE DS2 Desktop Studio Arm for Broadcast Microphones comes with a 3/8" to 1/4" Thread Adapter. No additional adapter would be required to connect the RODE VideoMicro II.

Do you think I could use this for the Sennheiser MKH 416?
Asked by: Sam
Sure, the RODE DS2 Desktop Studio Arm for Broadcast Microphones (BH #RODS2SA) could support a Sennheiser MKH 416 with some sort of added shock mount like the Auray DUSM-1 Universal Shockmount (BH #AUDUSM1).
