The PSA1+ offers two primary mounting options: a desk clamp for temporary or non-invasive installation, and a desk insert for a more permanent, flush mount.

Option 1: Desk Clamp インストール

  2. 机の上に置くamp 机の端に。
  3. Tighten the screw mechanism on the clamp until it is securely fastened to the desk. Do not overtighten, as this may damage your desk.
  4. Insert the base of the PSA1+ arm into the top opening of the desk clamp.

Option 2: Desk Insert Installation (Permanent)

This option requires drilling a hole into your desk. Proceed with caution and ensure you have the necessary tools and expertise.

  1. Choose a desired location on your desk for the arm. Ensure there is sufficient clearance underneath for the insert.
  2. Using an appropriate drill bit (refer to the desk insert for exact diameter, typically around 22mm/0.87 inches), drill a clean hole through your desk.
  3. Insert the desk insert into the drilled hole from the top.
  4. Secure the insert from underneath the desk using the provided nut.
  5. Insert the base of the PSA1+ arm into the opening of the desk insert.

Attaching Your Microphone

  1. The PSA1+ features a standard microphone thread. If your microphone requires a 5/8" thread, use the included 3/8" to 5/8" adaptor.
  2. Carefully screw your microphone or microphone shock mount onto the threaded post at the end of the arm.

ケーブル管理

Operating the PSA1+

The PSA1+ is designed for smooth and silent operation, allowing for effortless microphone positioning.

Movement and Positioning

  • The parallelogram spring design allows for fluid movement across its entire range. Gently push or pull the arm to adjust the microphone's height and horizontal position.
  • The arm offers 360-degree rotation at its base, providing maximum flexibility for microphone placement.
  • The fully damped internal springs ensure that the arm remains stable in any position without drifting, and movement is virtually silent, preventing unwanted noise during recordings or broadcasts.

メンテナンス

To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your RØDE PSA1+:

  • Regularly wipe down the arm with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust and debris.
  • Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can damage the finish or neoprene cover.
  • Periodically check the tightness of the desk clamp or desk insert to ensure the arm remains secure.
  • Ensure cables are properly routed through the management channels to prevent strain or damage.
