The RØDE PG2-R is a professional-grade pistol grip shock mount designed for videographers and field recordists who require clean, vibration-free audio from shotgun microphones in handheld or boom-mounted scenarios. Its primary benefit is the use of dual Rycote Lyre mounts which provide superior mechanical isolation; however, users should note that its specialized design is optimized specifically for shotgun-style form factors and may not be suitable for large diaphragm condenser microphones.

While designed specifically for RØDE shotgun microphones, it can fit other shotgun mics of similar diameter, though performance is optimized for RØDE products.
Yes, it features a 3/8-inch thread on the base, which is standard for most microphone stands and boom poles. You may need an adapter for specific 1/4-inch tripod heads.
The PG2-R unit includes the housing for the cable, but the specific PG2-R Pro Cable is generally sold separately.
Loosen the locking nut located on the side of the pistol grip, adjust the microphone to your desired angle, and tighten the nut securely.
The materials are durable for outdoor use, but it is not waterproof. Avoid direct exposure to heavy rain and wipe it down if it becomes wet.
Ensure the heavy-duty locking nut on the side of the handle is fully tightened.
Check that the microphone is not touching the frame of the shock mount and that cables are not pulled too tight at the connection point.
To set up the PG2-R, slide your compatible RØDE shotgun microphone into the Lyre mounts, ensuring the microphone is balanced correctly. Route your XLR cable through the integrated management clips along the handle to prevent accidental tugging. For base termination, the grip is designed to house the PG2-R Pro Cable, allowing the XLR connector to sit flush at the bottom of the grip.
Care instructions involve keeping the Rycote Lyre mounts free from heavy grit or dust. If the rubberized mounts become dusty, wipe them gently with a dry, lint-free cloth. Always ensure the locking nut is fully tightened before mounting the grip to a boom pole to prevent the microphone from drooping during use.
