AKG's ST45 is a Low Profile Microphone Off Center Microphone Stand. This stand accomodates a large variety of microphones and adapters so you can create the perfect set up for your presentation.

The 3/8" stud accepts an SA40 swivel adapter or a SA50 3/8" thread adapter so you can use any AKG straight shaft microphone. Or change to the KM217 and use a standard US 5/8" threaded mounting stud.

Q: 1. Work with Earthworks omni condenser mics? Say QTC40? Or is 225 gm or 0.5 lbs too much?

A: Yes, provided it is fitted properly.. While designed for Sennheiser MKH microphones (Dimensions ø: 0.75 x L: 9.84" / ø: 19 x L: 249.94 mm) , it will support the QTC 40, provided it is positioned properly.

Q: 2. Is this a good choice for the Shure VP88?

A: No, the Rycote INV-7 InVision Microphone Suspension for Stand and Boompole Mounting is not compatible for use with the Shure VP88 Stereo Condenser Microphone. The diameter of the VP88 is 39.7mm at the front, which is the widest part, and 27mm at the cable connection, which is the narrowest part. The INV-7 accommodates microphones that have a diameter of 19 to 25mm. The VP88 already has an internal shockmount that is designed to reduce handling noise and stand vibration, so you could use the stand adapter that comes included with the mic for most applications. If you feel that you need additional isolation, you can try the Rycote InVision INV-HG mkIII Microphone Suspension Lyre Shockmount (B&H # RYINVHGMKIII), which accommodates microphones with a diameter of 19 to 34mm and should work on the handle of the VP88.
