A mic arm is something I do not want to miss at my studio desk. The ability to have a great quality mic always ready to go and able to just move it as I need?! Invaluable. The Røde PSA1+ could be my new daily driver, let's see how it performs with all heavy and light mics?
The Røde PSA1+ was provided to my by Røde for the purpose of making this review. I have not been paid and Røde does not see this video before it goes live.
