## Summary description

Rycote Windjammer WJ 1 is a fur-style windshield cover designed for professional shotgun and boom microphones. It reduces wind noise and improves outdoor recording clarity by shielding the microphone capsule from air movement. The Windjammer is used in film, broadcast, ENG and field sound recording where wind protection is required without altering microphone placement.

## Long description

Rycote Windjammer WJ 1 is a fur-style windshield cover engineered for professional shotgun and boom microphones. Designed to fit and protect a variety of long, narrow microphone bodies, the Windjammer reduces wind noise and turbulence at the capsule, helping to preserve speech and ambience clarity during outdoor recording. It is intended for field sound recording applications such as film sets, ENG, broadcast and location audio where wind protection is needed without changing microphone placement.
Advantages
The Windjammer WJ 1 combines low-noise synthetic fur with a form-fitting design to minimize rustle and aerodynamic noise. Its construction provides consistent protection in moderate to strong wind conditions while remaining lightweight and easy to attach. The cover maintains microphone accessibility, allowing operators to position the mic on booms or shock mounts without compromising wind shielding.
Suitable for
 Shotgun microphones used on booms and poles
 Location sound recording for film and television
 Electronic news gathering (ENG) and broadcast field work
 Outdoor interviews and documentary production
Key specifications
 Fur-style synthetic windshield material designed to reduce wind turbulence
 Cover shape and dimensions optimized for long, narrow shotgun/boom microphones
 Lightweight construction for minimal effect on microphone handling
 Compatible with boom pole and stand mounting without removing the cover
How to use
Slide the Windjammer WJ 1 over the microphone body until it fully covers the capsule area. Ensure the fur is evenly distributed around the microphone to avoid gaps that could allow wind to reach the capsule. When mounting on a boom or pole, fit the cover before final positioning and secure any integrated retention features if present. Remove for indoor use or when wind is not a factor.
Usage recommendations
For best performance outdoors, combine the Windjammer WJ 1 with an internal foam windshield and position the microphone close to the sound source while preserving natural boom operation. Inspect the fur regularly and replace if matted or contaminated to maintain wind reduction efficiency.
