Triad-Orbit Advanced Stand Systems is a Kingston, Washington-based manufacturer of microphone and support stands, operating as the branded-products division of Music Express LLC under the ACCESS Products Group (APG) umbrella. The line debuted in late 2013 after a multi-year development process aimed at modernizing the traditional microphone stand, which had changed little for decades. The company launched at the Audio Engineering Society convention in New York with four core product groups: Triad articulating tripod stands, Orbit orbital booms, Micro orbital adapters, and iO quick-change couplers. In 2015 the company dropped "Microphone" from its name to reflect broader applications across audio, video, broadcast, photography, and lighting.

The system is built around the proprietary iO quick-change coupler, a standardized connector that lets users swap microphones, booms, and accessories without tools. Orbit booms use a stainless-steel ball-swivel mechanism that provides 360° by 190° of motion, while Triad tripod bases use independently articulating legs for placement on uneven surfaces or over drum hardware. The catalog includes the T1, T2, and T3 tripod stands, OM and O2 boom arms, the SB-1 Starbird studio boom, Micro orbital adapters, and a range of iO mounts and clamps for cameras, tablets, lights, and monitors.

Triad-Orbit products are distributed through pro-audio retailers including Sweetwater, Vintage King, and Full Compass, and are used in recording studios, broadcast facilities, and live-sound applications. The brand is known within the pro-audio community for its modular ecosystem approach, in which stands, booms, and accessories are designed to be mixed and matched through the shared iO coupler standard.
