PIX-Base is a sturdy, flexible mounting accessory for the Sound Devices MixPre Series (MixPre-3, MixPre-6, MixPre-10T, MixPre-10M, Video Devices PIX-E Series 4K recording monitors (PIX-E5, PIX-E7), or any other devices with a 1/4-inch, 20-thread screw hole.
The tabletop-friendly PIX-Base is an easily adjustable design of durable, anodized aluminum that collapses flat for easy storage and transport. PIX-Base offers an alternative to the camera-mount setup, opening the door to more convenient use when recording live events.
The PIX-Base includes a standard 1/4-inch, 20-thread screw with thumb wheel knob to secure any device, rubber feet to minimize vibrations and prevent sliding, a bubble level, 7-inch hook-and-loop strap to secure cables, and a hex key to make angle adjustments on the fly. The accessory's interlocking base allows multiple PIX-Bases to be linked together securely for multiple screen monitoring on more complex jobs.
The stand also comes with mounting holes (sized for a #8 ANSI or M4 metric screw) to affix it to a table or wall for longer periods of time. While it pairs perfectly with the MixPre Series, the PIX-Base can attach to any device with a 1/4-inch, 20-thread screw hole, including the PIX-E Series, PIX 240i video recorder or the Sound Devices MixPre-D mixer.
