Caruba Carbon Microphone Boompole (90CM-300cm) Universal

Caruba Carbon Microphone Boompole (90CM-300cm) Universal: Position shotgun microphones overhead

A dialogue recording in a room or on location often calls for the microphone to be placed above the speaker, rather than left on a nearby stand. The Caruba Carbon Microphone Boompole (90CM-300cm) Universal extends from 90 to 300 centimetres in three sections, giving you a long, adjustable support for a shotgun microphone and related accessories. It’s a useful option for interview recording, filmed conversations and other spoken-word work where the microphone needs to be positioned near the sound source but kept out of the camera’s view. The adjustable length covers both closer setups and situations that call for more reach, while the universal boom-pole format keeps the focus on microphone placement rather than a particular camera system. Use it to bring a shotgun microphone above a seated interviewee, or extend it toward a speaker during a video recording. Its carbon construction and supplied accessories make it a self-contained piece of sound kit, rather than just a bare pole: the package includes a thread adapter, cable guides and a carry bag. For a camera operator or sound recordist building a lightweight location setup, those details make it straightforward to include alongside the microphone and recording equipment.

Boom-pole setup

• Thread adapter: The included adapter provides 1/4-inch, 3/8-inch and 5/8-inch thread options. That range gives you several common fitting sizes for attaching compatible microphone accessories.
• Cable guides: Three Velcro guides are supplied to route a microphone cable along the pole. Keeping the cable close to the boom helps prevent it from hanging loose while you position the microphone.
• Weight: At 660 grams, the pole is relatively light to carry as part of a location sound kit. That matters when you’re holding the microphone in position during a take.
• Carry bag: A dedicated bag is included for transport and storage. It keeps the pole and its supplied parts together between recording sessions.
• Black and red finish: The pole combines black and red. It has a more distinctive appearance than an all-black piece of equipment in a mixed kit.
• Three-section design: The adjustable pole is divided into three sections. You can set its length to suit the position needed for the recording, rather than working with a fixed-length boom.
