vdB Pocket-QT

vdB POCKET-QT

The vdB POCKET-QT is a six-section telescopic carbon fibre microphone boom pole extending from 30 to 107 cm. Its short collapsed size makes it compact to carry and use when limited reach is sufficient, for example during interviews. It weighs 260 g including the Quick Lock.

Construction and operation

The tubes are made from carbon fibre. QT locking collars release or secure the sections with a quarter turn for length adjustment. The polished outer tube provides the handgrip surface, while the extending inner tubes have a matt black, non-reflective finish to reduce light reflections on set.

Removable tip and heel

The included TOP-SC-2 Quick Lock top screw is removable and can remain attached to the microphone suspension. This lets you exchange a prepared suspension without repeatedly unscrewing the tip from it. The POCKET-QT is supplied with the standard 6-101 heel.

Optional internal cabling

The standard pole does not include an internal cable. Internal mono or stereo cabling is available to order. The matching optional internal coiled cable kit is the POCKET-CA, available separately. The cable size is matched to the POCKET-QT.

Maintenance

The pole can be dismantled without tools. Tubes and locking components can be replaced individually, allowing a damaged part to be renewed without replacing the entire boom pole.
