Profile Studio Arm Launches at US$139

RØDE has released the LPA1, a low-profile studio microphone arm designed to keep hardware out of camera shots for streamers and podcasters. The all-metal arm features 360-degree articulation and a 2kg load capacity.
Why it matters
This product addresses the growing demand for professional-grade, unobtrusive equipment in the expanding creator economy.
RØDE has launched the RØDE LPA1, a professional low-profile studio arm built for creators who record on camera and want the microphone close without the hardware sitting in the shot. The arm is available now in black for US$139, with a white version arriving later.
What the RØDE LPA1 Brings to On-Camera Setups
Most studio arms arc over a desk and swing into frame the moment a camera starts rolling. The LPA1 takes the other route. It extends horizontally and sits below a camera's usual line of sight, so the microphone stays in position while the arm stays out of the picture. RØDE says the design suits video podcasts, live streaming and on-camera content, where the equipment should support the creator instead of competing for attention.
