Shahryar Posted March 24, 2022 Report Share Posted March 24, 2022 I've got a Sony MZ-RH1 Hi-MD Minidisc Recorder which I haven't used in a long time. I just got a new camera (Sony FDR-AX53) want to get back into recording stand-up and other things. Where can I get something like what I've attached in the pic - a table top tripod? I want to connect my AT-822 mic to my minidisc. I'd be using this for recording of the crowd and then merge this sound with the video + audio from the mic attached to the camera.

kgallen Posted March 27, 2022 Report Share Posted March 27, 2022 That looks like a combination of a desk tripod, a desk (or pipe) clamp plus the Sennheiser mic adaptor. Have a hunt on Thomann, but I think you’re looking for a number of separate parts rather than that unit as one. Manfrotto do some interesting mic stands and arms but I think you're looking at a number of items that screw together to make that combination. However I'm not so keen on the way that MD portable is clamped, looks like a recipe for a broken machine. The concept though I can see working just with a different choice of desk clamp part that holds the MD machine. Where did that photo come from? Is there any other info from that source?

Shahryar Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 I'm not sure where I found this pic, but I'm open to alternatives to do what I want to do. Maybe just a regular tripod which has the right attachments so I can a mic on it and the minidisc recorder and point it to the crowd? Again, the main sound for the stand-up I'll record is from the AT-822 mic attached to the camcorder, which is pointed at the stage. The sound source varies depending on venue, but usually is coming from a big speaker or two which are next to the comedian pointing at the crowd. The minidisc recorder and my other AT-822 I just want to use to try and enhance the sound experience by getting crowd reaction as a separate sound source.

BearBoy Posted March 29, 2022 Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 There are quite a lot of mini tripods available for vlogging. They have clamps for smart phones - not sure if they’d work with a portable MiniDisc recorder? Not sure where you’re based @Shahryar but might be worth taking a look on your local version of Amazon for “vlogging kit” and seeing if anything suitable come up.
