Your cart is empty.The 5/8" mounting threads are supplied with accompanying spacing clips to allow for easy positioning for stacked arrays, and the robust ABS construction makes the Stereo Bar stable and durable, allowing it to easily support the weight of two large diaphragm microphones such as the Rode K2. Note: Mics are not included.

Sağlam ve kaliteli bir Stereo Bar. Ana materyali kalın plastik, metal değil. Bu da onu hafif kılıyor. Rode M5 mikrofonlarımla birlikte kullanıyorum. M5'in yanından çıkan RM5 mikrofon tutucular bu stereo bar'a çok iyi uyuyor. Üstten mikrofon tutuculara, alttan da bir mikrofon standına bağlarsanız, uzun süre kullanabileceğiniz bir stereo kayıt setiniz olur.

This is well made, has great flexibility for different mic'ing options, includes measurements and angles on the mount, and is one of the only I've seen with the standoff so the mic's/cables don't interfere with each other for some of the mic'ing techniques. Great price for all this... Only warning is that you may need an additional adaptor for the mic clip mounting.

I wanted to try stereo recording with two microphones and this seemed like a good solution. Very happy with the quality and ease of use.

There are a number of choices for a stereo bar like this for mounting small condenser microphones but Rode's simple addition of clear ruled markings makes this a snap to set up consistently. It mounts to microphone and light stands with simple adapters and has most of what you need. straight out of the box.

I initially bought a less expensive stereo mic bar. Big mistake. The Rode is wider for better stereo separation and has spacers making it easier to do X-Y and ORTF without mangling the mic cables. Well designed and executed with the angle markings on the top and spacing on the front. Should have saved the time and bought this in the first place. Works most excellent with my Rode NT5 matched pair.

Does what the description says it does. I use these with Rode M5 matched pair condenser mics. But be warned that it does NOT include any microphone clips/holders; this may not be clear because many photos show it with Rode mics with clips. See my photo attached to this review showing what comes in the box. What it DOES include are the two spacers that let you offset your microphones in XY or ORTF stereo configurations--this is a nice touch. Overall, construction feels robust despite being plastic (the attachment threads are, or course, metal).

Ordered this with my 2 NT50 mics and loved it out of the box. Love the diagrams on top showing different mic positionings. Used it right away on acoustic recordings with great results. Not the cheapest but glad I selected it.

This works great, the included spacers make it a cinch to line up the mics properly. I was worried the thread sizes might be an issue as others mentioned, but maybe Rode for the message, because each clip and the bar itself all came with adapters to work with 1/4 20 or 5/8 mounts.

I was wondering if this was really worth the money they were charging for it when you can get a similar product for half the price but it is!First off, as someone new to stereo recording, it’s tough to position two mic stands properly not only to avoid phasing issues but just getting the correct angles for XY, ORTF, etc.The guides on the bar are extremely helpful for placing your mics at the right angle for XY, ORTF, spaced pair, and anything else you could think of. It comes with two spacer clips attached to the bar so you can place one mic above the other when recording XY.Plus it’s just nice not to have to deal with multiple mic stands.As I mentioned it does come with spacers AND there’s a mic stand adapter that’s already screwed into the stereo bar so if your boom arm or whatever uses a larger threading just unscrew the metal adapter and you’re set to go plus you get a bonus adapter for your mic stands in the future.One thing I would recommend is getting the pivot adapter because unless you have a really short mic stand or a taller chair then you’ll have a little trouble pointing the bar at the sound source. It’s not impossible but it’s worth spending the extra money. I didn’t know about that when I bought this and I’m going to purchase that now.

While more expensive than I think it should be, this stereo array microphone bar works well with my two Rode NT-55 microphones allowing for both XY and ORTF positioning. Unfortunately, I neglected to remove it from the mic stand after the concert and when I returned to the venue to get it, it had disappeared.The Rode SB20 is better than other stereo bars because of the dimensional markings and the ability to more accurately position your XY microphones by utilizing a spacer for one of your mics that raises it above the other mic.
