Rycote Softie windscreen 29 cm standard

General

A windshield is an indispensable accessory for noiseless audio recordings. Cue Rycote´s Softie! It's a soft windshield of acoustic foam and synthetic fur, that's a true industry standard when it comes to TV recordings! You can easily slide the windscreen over the microphones, so that all apertures are covered, creating a space in which there's no moving air. This ensures the right wind and noise reduction. Of course, the Softie also protects your microphone from dust and dirt. This is the version for microphones of up to 29 cm.

Softie: available in different sizes

The Softie comes in 9 different lengths - for most popular shotgun microphones you can find a Softie windshield. We often see the Softie in combination with directional, condenser, ribbon or camera microphones, for instance. There are two different diameters available - 19-22 mm and 24-25 mm - and two types of fur (standard and short). This product features the standard version for microphones that are shorter than 29 cm, with a maximum diameter of 19 to 22 mm.

40dB wind reduction

The acoustic foam as well as the synthetic fur are designed specifically for wind protection, resulting in a wind noise suppression of up to 40 dB that does not have any deleterious effect on the HF range. As the foam is UV and moisture-protected, it will last you a long time! A special rubber end cap allows for secure fastening. The Softie is a super-durable product, that allows offers perfect protection under extreme weather circumstances.
