ESB2: How To Set Up & Use w/ Mic Stands

Introduction

In this guide, we’ll show you how to organize and carry your microphone stands using the Rockville ESB2 Bag. This bag is designed to comfortably fit multiple microphone stands, making it easy to transport your gear to events and gigs. Let’s dive into the setup!

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Unbox the ESB2 Bag

• Open the Bag: Begin by unzipping the ESB2 Bag and laying it out flat. The bag is spacious enough to hold up to six microphone stands (three stands per side). However, we will demonstrate using two stands per side.

2. Organize the Microphone Stands

• Place the First Stand: Take your first microphone stand and place it inside the bag, laying it flat.
• Position the Second Stand: For better organization and to maximize space, place the second stand opposite of the first stand. For example, if the first stand is sitting upright, place the second one so it faces the opposite direction.

3. Secure the Stands with Velcro Straps

• Wrap the Velcro Strips: Use the velcro strips inside the bag to wrap around both stands to secure them in place. This ensures the stands stay sturdy and do not move during transport.
• Repeat for the Second Set of Stands: For the second set of microphone stands, follow the same steps. Place the stands opposite each other, then secure them with the velcro strips.

4. Add Protective Padding (Optional)

• Use the Padding: The ESB2 Bag includes protective padding that helps shield your stands from any external impact. Place the padding inside the bag as needed to protect the stands during transport.
• Remove Padding for Extra Space: If you need more room, simply remove the padding to increase the space inside the bag. This is ideal when you need to carry more stands or additional gear.

5. Carry the Bag

• Carry Options: Once your microphone stands are securely packed, you can carry the bag using the strap or the carry handles on the back of the bag. Both options are designed for comfort and easy transport.

Conclusion

Setting up your ESB2 Bag for microphone stands is quick and efficient. The bag’s design ensures that your stands stay organized and protected while you're on the move.
