Know before you buy
These are specifically engineered for a tight fit on 19-20mm microphones. If your microphone exceeds 20mm, the foam may stretch excessively, potentially tearing the material or making it difficult to slide on securely.
While these windscreens are excellent at reducing plosives and light wind noise, they are primarily designed for indoor use or light outdoor breezes. For heavy wind conditions, you may need a dedicated furry windshield or deadcat accessory.
The Rycote Baseball is designed to be acoustically transparent. While any windscreen can cause a very subtle roll-off in extreme high frequencies, this foam is engineered to maintain the natural clarity and detail of your audio.
Yes, you can gently hand wash the foam with mild soap and warm water. Ensure they are completely air-dried before placing them back on your microphones to prevent moisture buildup.
The 'Baseball' design is a specialized acoustic foam structure that mimics the performance characteristics of traditional furry windscreens by creating a pocket of still air around the capsule. It provides similar noise-reduction benefits in a more compact, durable foam form factor.
