Rycote 033092 12.5" (32 cm) Softie Windscreen

Since inventing the Softie in 1987, Rycote has continued to develop this product to ensure that it provides a robust and practical windshielding solution suitable for the rigours of ENG and documentary work. The Rycote Softie is a slip-on microphone windshield that works by creating a controlled area of "still air" around the microphone.

Features:

• The foam is exclusively designed for us and is not affected by moisture or UV light.
• The Softie fur is specially made for Rycote and has been extensively tested to provide maximum wind protection, with minimum high frequency attenuation. The fur strands have a maximum length of 30 mm, which gives up to 25dB of wind noise reduction.
• Advanced materials, adhesives and assembly techniques all combine to make the Softie an extremely tough product that provides excellent wind protection in the harshest of environments.
• The Softie is 70 mm in diameter and is constructed of specially manufactured acoustic foam that is then fitted with an integral fur cover.
• The length of the pick up 'slots' or 'vents' and the diameter of the microphone determine the correct Softie size. It is essential that all the 'slots' or 'vents' are covered by the Softie for it to work effectively.
• The Softie is suitable for microphones of the following diameters: Standard Hole 19 to 22 mm (0.75" to 0.87") & Large Hole 24 to 25 mm (0.94" to 1.00")
