Pivoting Boom Adapter for Precise Microphone Positioning
The Rode Pivot Adaptor is a microphone boom adapter designed to give users precise control over microphone placement on boom stands and boompoles. It allows the mounted microphone or shock mount to pivot smoothly, making it easier to aim the mic accurately at a sound source. This added flexibility is especially useful for dialogue capture, voice recording, and location sound work where positioning directly affects audio quality.
Wide Pivot Range for Accurate Mic Aiming
Offering up to 210 degrees of pivot movement, the Pivot Adaptor provides a wide range of adjustment options. This range allows sound recordists and filmmakers to fine-tune microphone angles without repositioning the entire boom or stand. The result is faster setup and more consistent mic placement during recording sessions.
Designed for Boom Stands and Boompoles
The adaptor is intended for use with standard boom stands and boompoles, making it suitable for studio recording, broadcast environments, and on-location production. It provides a stable connection point that supports common microphone mounts, shock mounts, and clips used in professional audio workflows.
Durable Construction for Professional Use
Built from machined aluminum, brass, and high-grade polymer components, the Pivot Adaptor is designed for repeated use in demanding environments. The solid construction helps maintain secure positioning once set, reducing unwanted movement during recording while withstanding frequent adjustments.
Included Thread Adapter for Broad Compatibility
A 5/8-inch to 3/8-inch thread adapter is included, allowing the Pivot Adaptor to work with a wide variety of microphone accessories and mounting hardware. This added compatibility makes it easier to integrate into existing audio setups without additional adapters.
Compact Design for Easy Integration into Audio Rigs
The Pivot Adaptor adds flexibility without adding unnecessary bulk to a boom setup. Its compact profile makes it easy to transport and integrate into mobile sound kits, studio rigs, or broadcast setups where space and weight matter.
