And as I was now mostly recording non-fiction conversations for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/podcraft-podcast\/\">Podcraft<\/a>, I decided to set up an old boom arm instead. It was much more convenient, and I felt a bit daft for leaving it so long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the old cheap boom arm had its downsides. It still felt &ldquo;in the way&rdquo; during recording sessions, had a habit of slowly drooping, and when my XLR and headphone cables knocked against it, the noise inevitably crept into my audio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether by sheer coincidence or psychic powers, a nice chap from IXTECH reached out to point me toward their wares. I noticed they had a low-profile boom arm called the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/go\/amazon\/lizard-boom-arm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lizard Pro<\/a><\/strong>, and I was intrigued by this reptilian rig.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><em>This Lizard Pro boom arm review contains some affiliate links.

This typically means pop filters, XLR cables, and, yes, boom arms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/equipment\/what-is-a-pop-filter\/\">Pop filters<\/a>&nbsp;are on one end of the scale (you can&nbsp;<em>definitely&nbsp;<\/em>scrimp on them), and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/equipment\/understanding-audio-cables\/\">cables<\/a>&nbsp;at the other (you really&nbsp;<em>shouldn&rsquo;t<\/em>&nbsp;scrimp on them), but boom arms fall somewhere in the middle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lizard costs about $80, meaning you could get about ten ultra-budget boom arms for the same cost. So, our cold-blooded companion needs to justify its place in your setup if you&rsquo;re going to fork out the cash. Let&rsquo;s learn some facts and specs: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"the I-XTECH Lizard low-profile boom arm\" class=\"wp-image-59173\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-350x350.jpg 350w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-445x445.jpg 445w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-580x580.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm-700x700.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/ixtech-lizard-boom-arm.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Horizontal Reach:<\/strong> Extends up to 28 inches (710 mm), allowing flexible positioning.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Vertical Rotation:<\/strong> Offers a range of motion from +90&deg; to -35&deg;, enabling easy angle adjustments.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Horizontal Rotation: <\/strong>You can swivel the boom arm 360&deg; to face any direction. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cable Channel:<\/strong> Includes a sliding cover to neatly hide cables, ensuring a tidy setup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Ball Head:<\/strong> Adjustable head for precise microphone positioning, compatible with 3\/8&Prime; &ndash; 5\/8&Prime; adapters.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Padded Clamp:<\/strong> Provides adjustable thickness to securely attach to surfaces of varying dimensions, supporting a range from 0.4 to 2.2 inches (1-5.5 cm).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Detachable Riser:<\/strong> An extension piece that adds 5.9 inches (150 mm) to the boom arm, usable on both the top and bottom sections.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Max Weight Capacity:<\/strong> 4.4 lbs (approximately 2kg) <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Dimensions:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Arm length: 11.7 inches (29.7 cm)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Clamp height: 8.5 inches (21.7 cm)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, there is no shortage of features that the I-XTECH marketing team wanted to highlight. Most of them fall under the &ldquo;positioning and adjustability&rdquo; bracket, but I want to start with the Lizard&rsquo;s cable management capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-cable-management\">Cable Management<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>You&rsquo;ll have at least one cable running into your mic (XLR or USB), and if it&rsquo;s a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/equipment\/best-usb-microphones-roundup-podcasters\/\">USB mic<\/a>, you&rsquo;ll likely have a headphone cable plugged in there, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With my cheap boom arm, the cables running into my mic constantly knocked against it, and those sounds were picked up in the audio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lizard&rsquo;s simple but effective cable channels provide a space to securely house your cables, solving that problem quickly and easily. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-look-amp-feel\">Look &amp; Feel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lizard boom arm looks and feels like a premium piece of podcasting kit. It&rsquo;s sleek, weighty, and durable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With its maximum weight capacity of 4.4 lbs\/2kg, the Lizard Pro boom arm could theoretically support two Shure SM7Bs, three Blue Yetis, or five Samson Q2Us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lizard could also take the strain of a bag of flour, a large watermelon, or a very small dog. But you&rsquo;d have some explaining to do if anyone walked in. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-positioning-amp-adjustability\">Positioning &amp; Adjustability<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most boom arms feel a bit like they&rsquo;re in the way, especially if you&rsquo;re not using them. The Lizard&rsquo;s low profile and seemingly limitless flexibility mean that&rsquo;s never an issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a standing desk workstation or converter, you&rsquo;ll probably need to sit down to record podcasts. But, with the Lizard Pro boom arm, you can easily raise your mic to mouth level even if you&rsquo;re on the tall side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the flip side, you can position your mic below your monitor, and its long low reach means you could even attach it to <em>someone else&rsquo;s<\/em> desk and pull it over to mouth level. I&rsquo;m not sure how you might justify or explain that to them, of course, especially if there&rsquo;s a large watermelon attached to it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-ixtech-s-dynamic-microphone\">IXTECH&rsquo;s Dynamic Microphone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can mount almost any mic using a 3\/8&Prime; or 5\/8&Prime; adapter, and the Lizard Pro boom arm is compatible with both. Its ball head gives you (even more) intricate control over the positioning of that mic, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IXTECH kindly sent me one of their mics alongside the Lizard Pro. &ldquo;Lizard&rdquo; may be a pretty unique and memorable moniker. By contrast, their dynamic microphone is the wonderfully named <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/go\/amazon\/ixtech-dynamic-mic\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">IXTECH Dynamic Microphone<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There isn&rsquo;t a whole lot to say about the mic, with little in the way of hype or specs available. It&rsquo;s almost as if it&rsquo;s shy. Here are the few details I have: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Costs about &pound;50 or $70.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Works in both USB and XLR form. <\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Has a Cardioid polar pattern (designed for solo use).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>And, in case you hadn&rsquo;t clicked, it&rsquo;s a Dynamic mic. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<p><iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"180\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\" seamless=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/share.transistor.fm\/e\/f9609a76\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It sounds pretty decent, especially at the price point. There isn&rsquo;t much more to say, really. Except maybe that they should consider renaming it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading \" id=\"h-summary-the-lizard-pro-boom-arm-by-ixtech\">Summary: The Lizard Pro Boom Arm by IXTECH<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you mount your mic on a desk stand, floor stand, or budget boom arm, the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/go\/amazon\/lizard-boom-arm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lizard Pro<\/a><\/strong> can level up your recording rig. It&rsquo;s very easy to keep out of the way and can be extended into almost any position once you&rsquo;re ready to record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also love the simple but effective cable management&mdash;I no longer have to hold onto cables to prevent them from knocking against my old boom arm and affecting the audio. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Lizard Pro boom arm is great value for what you get. At &pound;55\/$70 it isn&rsquo;t bank-breaking stuff, especially when you&rsquo;re talking about $130 for the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thepodcasthost.com\/equipment\/rode-psa1-boom-arm\/\">Rode PSA1<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, $70 is still a significant investment, especially if you&rsquo;re just starting out. If you&rsquo;ve only just launched or are still in the planning stages, keep things simple and low-cost in those early days.
