Base4Stands Shorty Double Mic Kit - Black

The Base4Stands Shorty Double Mic Kit Black combines the low-profile Base4Stands Shorty microphone stand with an additional 12-inch Add-on Arm. This gives you two microphone arms right from a single compact stand base. The set is ideal for kick drums, snare drums, guitar and bass amplifiers, and other low-positioned sound sources where you want to place two microphones without using two separate stands.

The Shorty comes standard with an 18-inch microphone arm. The additional 12-inch Add-on Arm adds a second microphone position and can be attached to the stand at various points.

Complete Shorty Double Mic Kit
Thiskit consists of a Base4Stands Shorty Black and a 12-inch Add-on Arm Black. This means you don’t have to assemble the extension separately and immediately have a compact solution for positioning two microphones. Use the standard 18-inch arm for the primary microphone and position the 12-inch Add-on Arm in a spot that suits the second sound source or second microphone position. This allows you to set up the rig around the instrument while keeping more floor space free.

Ideal for dual kick drum microphone setups
Two microphones are often used for kick drum recordings. With the ShortyDouble Mic Kit, you can mount both microphones from a single low stand base. The 18-inch arm gives you 46 cm of reach, while the 12-inch Add-on Arm, at 30.5 cm in length, is suitable for a second microphone position close to the drum kit. This makes the kit ideal for engineers who want to capture different aspects of the kick drum sound without placing multiple tripod legs in front of the kit. The Shorty was specifically developed by Base4Stands for kick, snare, and other low-frequency recording sources.

Miking the snare top and bottom from a single stand
This combination is also suitable for a snare top andbottom setup. Use the arms to position two microphones around the snare and decide for yourself where to attach the extra arm to the Shorty stand. This allows you to mic the top and bottom of the snare with fewer stands around the drum kit. That saves space between drum hardware, pedals, and cables and makes it easier to work around the kit.

Two Microphones for a Guitar or Bass Amp
The Shorty Double Mic Kit is also suitable for double-mikingguitarandbassamps. For example, place two different microphones in front of the same speaker or use different positions to capture multiple tonal characteristics. Because both microphones are mounted on a single stand base, the space in front of the amplifier remains more organized. This can make a big difference, especially in compact studio setups or when multiple amplifiers are in the same room.

Secure Locking Without Exerting Force
Base4Stands’ arm connectors are designed to hold the arms firmly in place. You don’t need to tighten the levers with much force to achieve a stable setup. The connectors grip firmly, preventing the arms from slowly dropping, rotating, or shifting during a recording. This provides extra assurance when using two microphones on a single stand. Once both microphones are properly positioned, the setup stays in place.

Low 4-Leg Base for Greater Stability
The Shorty features alow 4-leg base designed for microphone placement close to the floor. The stand has a maximum total height of 97 cm and a maximum horizontal reach of 46 cm with the standard 18-inch arm. The Shorty itself weighs 1.9 kg. Its low profile makes the stand suitable for kick drums, snares, and amplifiers. At the same time, the Shorty remains light enough to move quickly when you want to adjust the microphone setup.

Available in black
This kit isfinished in black, with natural-colored connectors. The Shorty and the 12-inch Add-on Arm share the same black finish and are visually coordinated. The natural-colored connectors provide the recognizable Base4Stands accent within the series.

Why Base4Stands?

Stable 4-leg base
Base4Stands was developed for engineers, musicians, and technicians who want to position microphones quickly, securely, and precisely. The brand takes a different approach than traditional microphone stands. Instead of heavy round feet, counterweights, or a tangle of separate stands, Base4Stands uses a patented 4-leg base with modular arms. ([Base 4 Stands][1])

No counterweights or sandbags needed
The patented 4-leg base provides a stable foundation, even when multiple microphones are mounted and the arms are fully extended. This allows you to combine multiple microphone positions without sandbags or counterweights.

Oversized Jam Nut for precise positioning
The oversized Jam Nut is fluted and knurled for extra grip. This prevents microphone clamps and shock mounts from rotating unintentionally. Even small angle adjustments can be made quickly and accurately.

Modular system for greater flexibility
The modular system allows you to mount multiple arms, Stub Mounts, and accessories in various positions. A single stand can thus replace multiple conventional microphone stands. This saves floor space and provides greater control over complex microphone setups. 

High-quality components without plastic
Base4Stands uses aluminum tubes and connectors, steel levers, and rubber feet. No plastic parts are used. The result is a lightweight yet sturdy tripod system for everyday use in the studio, on stage, and in any environment where microphones need to remain securely in place.
