For recording on the go and already too much stuff to drag along (instruments, gear, I need a roady) this is ideal for a couple of light stereo mikes or one heavier mike (like a Shure).
Slightly less stable than ordinary K&M's so when extended, under max lenght and angle put one of the feet in the direction of the mikes so they won't dive when someone bumps into them or so. Combines great with the Røde Stereobar, which wheighs next to nothing.
