  Accessory to hold boom

  Posted by Rick Pearl on October 29, 2008 at 7:02 pm

  What type of C-Stand accessory would I use to hold a boom pole and mic?

  Thanks.

  Hi Rick-

  There are several out there:

  “Boom Mate”
  “Remote Audio Boom Boy”
  General Brand’s boom holder
  and TAI Audio’s boom holder

  The first two are available at Trew Audio. I use the Boom Mate myself.

  Hope this helps :o)

  I use the Boom-Mate as well. Interestingly enough, several years ago I was in a Walmart and noticed they had these fishing pole holders that were on clearance for like $8 or something. They were exactly the same as the Boom-Mate but with a threaded base. However, I’ve not seen them since. It’s worth a shot though to check the Wally world in your area to see if they have them.

  C-stand or combo stand, grip head and a boom mate is what you need.
