Placing the M-48 on a Desk at an Angle

By attaching the included mounting bracket to the M-48, you can place it on a desk at a convenient angle.

*Spread a soft cloth or similar material under the mounting bracket so that the bracket does not scratch the surface on which it is placed.

Attaching the M-48 to the Top of a Mic Stand

You can use the included mounting bracket to attach the M-48 to the top of a mic stand.

If the included bracket tray is attached to the mounting bracket, you can use it to hold small items such an EDIROL R-09 series recorder, a mic, or headphones.

*When shipped from the factory, the bracket tray is attached to the mounting bracket.

If you want to attach only the mounting bracket to your mic stand, remove the bracket tray before you continue. For details on how to remove the bracket tray, refer to step 1 of “Placing the M-48 on a Desk at an Angle” on this page.

About the diameter of the mic stand screw thread

If you’re attaching the mounting bracket to your mic stand, the part you’ll use for attachment will depend on the diameter (3/8 inch or 5/8 inch) of your mic stand’s screw threads.

Use the part that’s correct for the mic stand you’re using.

Be careful not to pinch your hand when attaching the M-48 to the mounting bracket. Doing so may cause personal injury.
