The microphone stand is a design that is designed to securely fix the microphone at a certain height and at a certain angle of inclination. This is done with a single purpose - to increase the comfort of using the device. Depending on the functions that the microphone should perform, the stands are either desktop or floor stand.
Table stand for microphone
The microphone for which the desk stand is designed performs functions for communicating on the Internet, during online games, for participation in videoconferences. Usually this stand is flexible, which allows you to rotate the microphone at the desired angle. The base of the device is heavier to provide better stability. Usually, the microphone usb is presented for sale immediately on the stand.
Floor stand for microphone
Floor stands are purchased by professional music performers. The devices are designed to free the vocalist's hands during performance. This is true if, in addition to singing, the performer plays the piano or guitar. Some microphones are used for dubbing musical instruments, for example, drums.
Floor stands have height and incline control functions. They are made of strong alloys, therefore durable and reliable.
There are two types of supports:
- direct constructions;
- type "crane".
Devices have a round weighted base or 3-4 legs at the bottom, which ensures their stability. For microphones intended for musical instruments, use shorter versions of the stands.
If you need to purchase such a device, the question may arise: what is the correct name for the microphone stand? In specialized stores, it has the name "microphone stand".
