Would the stand be ALL that I need to mount my Shotgun Mic, or will I need a Boom Pole as well?

The question does not make sense so not able to answer. This is a studio mic stand meant for stationary positioning of a mic for music recording. A boom pole is a hand held lightweight device typically used with a shotgun mic on a movie set for dialog capture.

This is quite a heavy-duty microphone I will warn you that the base is rather heavy depending on your type of work. A shotgun microphone or basically any microphone from what I can tell would need to be screwed on to the extension arm at the top the arm looks to be about 6 inches long. It has a very long extending boom in my opinion,

You have to have a extra duty boom mic stand to use this as its HEAVY. It will not work on a cheap tripod or weighted mic stand without possibly falling. You would have to get the Ulitmate stand that is a professional studio boom, or your mic will be the only thing going BOOM!

You could put this stand on something to get you to the appropriate height and as long as you have a condensing mic or standard that fits in the holder provided you're ok. It would be a fairly fixed position, which you can work with to record but overall a stand with more range, boom or flexed would give more flexibility.

I'm not sure.You can always buy a shoe mount for the mic for the top of the camera.If you're just looking to mount the mic on the rig only then i suggest typing the rig brand name then add mic pole

Hello. Yes. The boom is a good way to get the mic overhead and away from the base (and ultimately upside down when you're using it). But on a regular mic stand, without a boom, the mount goes directly on the threads where the microphone clip would normally go. The Blue Radius mount has a swivel and adjuster that is included with it. So you can mount it on a vertical mic stand and adjust the mount to be horizontal. Then the mic can be used right-side-up... or down if you prefer. Lol. The short answer, however, is YES. No problem.

Silver mic comes with a small tripod stand. This stand is not stable and will fall over if the mic or table is bumped.

No the stand that comes with it workes very well, and is very sturdy. I still recomend a getting a shock mount and some kind of arm for it because it is a senstive mic. But not neccery

Sorry, I'm unable to answer your question because I do not use a boom pole. (See ALE answer; ALE seems to have experience with this.)

This microphone has it's own mount, that provides slight separation from any vibration noise. There is no elastic suspension "shock mount" available for this unit - but is a very rugged mic that can take a beating. Any decent stand will do... but because the SM7B is fairly heavy, I'd advise if your going to hang it off a boom stand, I'd find a sturdy one with a decent counter weight. I use an Atlas Sound MS20E Heavy Duty Microphone Stand or the On Stage SMS7650 Hex-Base Studio Boom Microphone Stand.

Five pounds would be a lot of weight for this stand. The boom will hold it, but if it's not balanced right you might have a problem. On the other hand. if you extended the boom directly over one of the tripod feet, it most likely wouldn't tip over. My recommendation is that if you have a five pound microphone, you should get a heavier stand than this one.

Yes, but never put the Rode Videomic Pro on a boom pole, the sound will be absolutely atrocious. Only ever connect your Rode Videomic Pro directly to your DSLR or other camera to get decent audio. The only time you'll get good sound quality from boom pole operating is when you're using a higher quality shotgun mic like the baseline Rode NTG-2 or Sennheiser ME66 for instance. The reason for this is that these shotgun mikes take XLR connections and cables that will connect with a portable recording device or sound mixer on set, which will create professional sound quality. I can't stress enough not to use the Rode Videomic pro on a boom pole, as the analog cable connection is terrible for sound quality.

You can add any mic holder to it. It's just like a tall stand, only short LOL.

The boom mic stand comes with an xlr to xlr mic cable pre-installed. That should connect directly to your microphone no adapter necessary. Jamal Whited nworcsradio@gmail.com djck@atlwebradio.com

I would say you'd be better off with a standard height boom stand. This I use mainly for kick drum mics and guitar cabs.

Stand itself will work fine with the threaded bit at the bottom of your mic. You will NOT fit a yeti in the shock mount. Not even close to being big enough. Using a much heavier mic than the yeti now and it stays in place very well. You can buy a shock mount for the yeti itself (little pricey) but you'll still be able to use this stand.

Hi Vince, attaching the xm55 microphone kit to the Rhode micro boom pole is very simple. The shock mount and ordinary mic holder attachment that comes with it already has a 3/4 attachment which can simply screw on to the end of the boom pole. Some microphones for instance like the Rhode NTG2 comes with an adapter in case the connections are a bit smaller. Hope this answers you question.

It will work with a microphone stand and it also works out with a shockmount. Try the neewer microphone shockmount. I use it with my microphone along with the neewer boom arm. When you get the shockmount, you will have to unscrew the legs of the mic. Be aware that if you remove the microphone legs, you will be unable to put them back without them being loose. Just unscrew the legs and fit it on to the shockmount. Hope this answer helped.
