Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Ensure your microphone stand has a standard thread (5/8-inch).
- If your stand has a different thread size, attach the included 3/8 to 5/8-inch thread adaptor to the clip first.
- Screw the RM5 clip onto the stand thread securely.
- Gently insert your compatible Rode microphone into the clip, ensuring it is held firmly but not excessively tightened, which could damage the microphone.
Compatibility:
The Rode RM5 is specifically designed for smaller RØDE microphones including the NT5, NT55, NT6, NTG1, NTG2, and NTG3. Always check your microphone's dimensions and weight against the clip's capabilities if using a model not explicitly listed.
Care:
- Clean the clip with a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or solvents.
- Store the clip in a dry environment when not in use.
- Periodically check the screw mount and thread adaptor for any signs of wear or damage.
