Rycote Windshield Foam for Rode Reporter Mic (35/50)

Professional audio recording demands protection from the elements, and the Reporter Mic Foam windshield rises to meet this challenge with sophisticated acoustic engineering. This discreet slip-on foam windshield safeguards microphone heads against light wind interference and unwanted pop noise. Constructed from durable, high-quality open-cell acoustic foam, it achieves up to 20 dB of wind noise attenuation whilst maintaining minimal high frequency loss.

The foam construction has been engineered exclusively for Rycote, incorporating advanced materials that provide superior resistance to moisture damage and UV light degradation. This specialised acoustic foam ensures long-lasting performance in various environmental conditions.

The USM shock mount represents a significant advancement in microphone suspension technology, utilising Rycote’s patented vibration-resistant Lyre mount system. The innovative W-shaped Lyres are positioned around a central mounting ring with adjustable fasteners, accommodating microphones with diameters ranging from 18 to 55 millimetres. This modern approach completely eliminates elasticated components, instead employing contemporary materials to create a virtually indestructible shock-mount that substantially outperforms traditional ‘cat’s cradle’ suspension systems. Factory testing at Rycote has demonstrated that the USM provides up to twice the isolation capability of conventional microphone suspension systems.
