The Rycote Blimp is a professional-grade windshield and shock-mount system designed to provide superior wind noise protection for shotgun microphones during outdoor or location recording. This comprehensive system is ideal for broadcast, film production, documentary, and field recording, where environmental factors like wind can drastically affect audio quality.
The Blimp is made with a lightweight yet sturdy synthetic material that surrounds the microphone, reducing wind noise while maintaining transparency for natural sound. It comes with a built-in shock mount that isolates the microphone from handling noise and vibrations, ensuring that only the desired sound is captured.
The Rycote Blimp can accommodate most shotgun microphones up to 12 inches in length and includes a Dead Wombat furry windshield cover for additional wind protection in extremely windy conditions. The Blimp system can also be used with a boompole for more flexible audio capture.
