Product Usage Instructions
Step 1 – Determine Your Mounting Method
There are two ways to attach the Clamp-On Microphone Arm to your
desktop or table:
- Clamp Base Assembly: Compatible with 0.4 to
3.7 inch thick desktops. To attach the microphone arm along the
edge of your desktop, follow the Clamp Method instructions (Step
2.A). Clamping the arm on the edge of a desk or table is the
simplest method, but the Clamp can also fit into grommet holes 3.15
inch diameter or larger. - Bolt-Through Mount: Compatible with 0.4 to 1.9
inch thick desktops. To attach the microphone arm through your
desktop, skip Step 2.A and follow the Bolt-Through Method
instructions (Step 2.B). The bolt-through mount can fit into a hole
between 0.4 – 1.75 inches in diameter located anywhere on the
desktop.
Step 2.A – Clamp Method
Base Attachment:
- Fit the Clamp Base Assembly onto the edge of the desk.
- Using the wing nut, tighten the Clamp Screw until the Bottom
Plate clamps firmly against the bottom of the desktop. - Skip the Bolt-Through Method steps and proceed with Step
3.
Step 2.B – Bolt-Through Method
Bolt-Through Hole Fit:
- The desktop must be between 0.4 and 1.9 inches thick and have a
hole between 0.4 and 1.75 inches in diameter to use this option.
Using a grommet hole already in your desktop is acceptable, or
drill a hole anywhere on the desktop, taking care to avoid frame
hardware underneath. - Clamp Assembly Removal: Remove the Clamp
Assembly from the Round Base. Using a Phillips head screwdriver,
remove the screw and nut from inside the Round Base to separate it
from the Clamp Assembly as shown.

Step 7 – Wire Management
Tuck your microphone cable into the integrated, soft rubber channel guides along the back side of the Microphone Arm. Keep slack in the cable to allow for any repositioning of the arm.
Step 8 – Arm Adjustments
A. To balance your microphone and arm, adjust the spring tension screw found below the base as shown with a Phillips head screwdriver.
1. If the arm rises on its own with the microphone attached, turn the screw counter-clockwise until the arm stays in place after it is positioned.
2. If the arm drops on its own with the microphone attached, turn the screw clockwise until the arm stays in place after it is positioned.
B. To adjust the angles of the arm segments, turn the knobs located at each joint counter-clockwise to loosen the joint. Move the arm segment to the desired position and then turn the knob clockwise to tighten and lock it in place.
