## Summary description

Rycote RYC055209 is a microphone windshield in black and grey designed to reduce wind noise and protect microphone capsules. As an accessory part, it provides basic wind protection for outdoor and location recording, ENG, and field interviews. Compatible with compatible Rycote mounting systems and meant for practical use in audio capture and film production.

## Long description

The Rycote RYC055209 microphone windshield in black and grey is a slip-on foam cover designed to reduce wind noise and protect shotgun microphone capsules during outdoor and location recording. Made from open-cell acoustic foam, it provides basic wind protection for ENG, field interviews and general location sound capture while preserving mid and high frequency detail. The lightweight, low-profile design attaches directly over the microphone body and is intended for use where wind is light to moderate and quick deployment is required.
Advantages
This foam windshield offers up to 20 dB of wind noise attenuation while minimizing loss of high-frequency content, helping preserve speech intelligibility and natural tonal balance. Its durable open-cell construction resists compression and is reusable across multiple shoots. The slip-on form factor allows fast fitting and removal, and the neutral black/grey finish maintains a discreet appearance on-camera.
Suitable for
Outdoor interviews and ENG reporting in light to moderate wind
Location sound recording for documentary and film when minimal wind protection is needed
Field interviews, run-and-gun shoots and quick setup situations
Protecting microphone capsules from light moisture and handling noise
Key specifications
Material: open-cell acoustic foam for wind attenuation and minimal HF loss
Color: black and grey
Type: slip-on foam windshield for shotgun microphones
Wind attenuation: up to 20 dB in light wind conditions
Compatible fit: designed for shotgun microphones with slots no further than 5 cm from the front of the mic
How to use
Slide the windshield gently over the front section of the shotgun microphone until it seats securely above the microphone slots. Ensure the foam covers the capsule area without stretching or compressing the material excessively, and check that the microphone mount or suspension system can still be attached or accessed. For best results, position the microphone toward the sound source and confirm sound quality with a test recording before critical takes.
Usage recommendations
Use this windshield for light to moderate wind conditions; in stronger wind, consider a fur cover or additional wind protection. Store the foam on a clean, dry surface away from direct sunlight to retain shape and acoustic properties. Clean gently with mild soap and water if needed, and allow to air dry completely before reuse.
