## Summary description

Rode WS4 is a windshield accessory designed for use with Rode shotgun microphones. It combines foam and furry exterior layers to reduce wind noise and protect the microphone during outdoor recording, interviews, film and broadcast work. The WS4 provides practical noise attenuation and physical protection without altering microphone mounting or basic handling.

## Long description

The Rode WS4 windshield is a combined foam and furry wind protection accessory designed for shotgun microphones. It fits over the microphone body to limit wind noise during outdoor recording while preserving directivity and handling characteristics. The dual-layer construction—an inner foam sleeve with an outer furry cover—reduces low- and mid-frequency wind rumble and provides a physical barrier against dust and light moisture without changing the microphone’s mounting or operating position.
Advantages
The inner foam layer offers close-fitting acoustic attenuation for steady wind and handling noise, while the outer fur (deadcat) layer disperses gusts to reduce turbulence-related artifacts. The WS4 is lightweight and flexible, allowing quick installation and removal on compatible shotgun microphones. Its construction maintains access to the microphone’s controls and connectors and does not require modifications to standard shotgun mounts or booms.
Suitable for
Outdoor field recording and ENG interviews
Film and video production on location
Broadcast reporting and location sound capture
Documentary work in windy environments
Key specifications
Dual-layer design: inner acoustic foam and outer synthetic fur
Form factor: full-length windshield sleeve for shotgun microphones
Primary function: wind noise reduction and light physical protection
Compatibility: designed for use with Rode shotgun-style microphones and similar form-factor mics
Weight: lightweight for minimal impact on handling and mounting
How to use
Slide the foam sleeve over the microphone body so the capsule area is fully covered, then pull the outer furry cover down over the foam, ensuring a snug fit without obstructing connectors or switches. When mounted on a boom or stand, check that the windshield does not contact nearby surfaces which could transfer handling noise. Remove the furry layer for indoor use or very quiet conditions, leaving the foam in place if mild wind attenuation is sufficient.
Usage recommendations
Use the WS4 when recording in open or gusty environments to reduce wind-induced low-frequency rumble. For extreme wind conditions, combine with proper mic placement and wind direction control. Store dry and brush the fur gently after use to maintain performance.
