Questions & Answers

Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?BRANDON C : Because they are the best out of all the available quick release systemsGUSTAVO S : See this item in a friend Boom poleMILES B : After watching and reading many reviews, I like the looks of the Rycote quick release. The mechanism is intuitive, and the color isn't flashy. And its a better value to get this with one tip plus the pair of tips for $150, instead of the Ambient QR with 2 tips for $140.

Are you looking for a quick, reliable, and professional-grade connection system for your boom pole Look no further than the Rycote PCS-Boom Quick Release System. This innovative connector is the epitome of efficiency and durability, designed specifically for the demanding needs of professional audio production.

The Rycote PCS-Boom Connector is the cornerstone of the Professional Connection System ('PCS'), a revolutionary quick attach/quick release system that streamlines the process of fitting and removing accessories to a 3/8" male threaded boom pole. With its robust construction and silent operation, this connector ensures a secure and noise-free connection that is vital for high-quality sound recording.

Crafted from high-grade aluminum, the PCS-Boom Connector features a twin locking screw arrangement that firmly grips the boom pole thread without causing any damage. This results in a rock-solid connection that you can trust, even in the most challenging production environments.

The universal 3/8" compatibility of the PCS-Boom Connector means it can be paired with a wide array of microphones, shock mounts, and windshield kits, whether made by Rycote or other reputable manufacturers. The system includes a pair of 3/8" male 'tips' that can be attached to your various audio equipment, allowing for a seamless 'click' and lock mechanism that is both sturdy and versatile.

The ingenious design of the PCS-Boom Connector is not only rigorously tested to withstand extreme conditions and thousands of operational cycles, but it also offers an easy one-handed 'click-in' attachment and intuitive pull collar release mechanism. This allows for super-fast swapping of mics and accessories, perfect for production sound recording applications where time and reliability are of the essence.

In summary, the PCS-Boom Quick Release System is a high-quality, reliable, and versatile solution for audio professionals who value quick setup and breakdown without compromising on stability or sound integrity. With the PCS-Boom Connector, you can expect a durable, sturdy, and reliable connection system that enhances your workflow and ensures that your focus remains on capturing the perfect sound.
