## Summary description

The Rycote VP88/SKM 4031 Mini Windjammer is a fur windshield designed for compact shotgun microphones to reduce wind noise in outdoor recording.

## Long description

The Rycote VP88/SKM 4031 Mini Windjammer is a fur windshield designed for compact shotgun microphones. Made to cover small shotgun mic capsules, it reduces wind noise during outdoor recording while preserving the microphone's directional characteristics and sound clarity. The Mini Windjammer provides aerodynamic protection for field recording, ENG, interviews and other location audio tasks where wind is a factor. It is lightweight and shaped to fit closely over compact shotgun microphones for minimal handling noise and unobtrusive operation.
Advantages
The fur cover offers effective wind attenuation without substantially altering the microphone’s frequency response, maintaining intelligibility of speech and detailed ambient sound. Its compact size and elastic fit make attachment and removal quick and secure, suitable for rapid changes in the field. The aerodynamic outer fur reduces buffeting and turbulence caused by wind, while the internal construction preserves the mic capsule spacing and directional pickup. The material is durable for repeated outdoor use and easy to store when not in use.
Suitable for
 Field recording and location sound with compact shotgun microphones
 Electronic news gathering (ENG) and broadcast interviews outdoors
 Documentary and run-and-gun shooting where wind is present
 Mobile journalism and on-the-move audio capture
Key specifications
 Form factor: fur windshield (mini windjammer) for compact shotgun mic capsules
 Primary function: wind noise reduction for outdoor recording
 Compatibility: designed for compact/short shotgun microphones and small shotgun capsules
 Fit: elastic/close-fitting design for secure attachment and removal
 Construction: synthetic fur outer layer with internal lining to reduce turbulence
 Weight: lightweight for minimal impact on microphone handling and mounting
How to use
Place the Mini Windjammer over the microphone capsule so that the fur fully covers the front and sides of the shotgun microphone. Stretch the elastic opening to slide the windshield into position and ensure a snug fit without compressing the microphone capsule. When mounted, check that the microphone’s front axis and directional pattern are unobstructed by internal material. Remove by gently pulling the elastic edge to avoid damaging the fur or the microphone body. Store the windjammer in a dry place and allow it to dry naturally if it becomes wet.
Usage recommendations
For best results in high wind, combine the Mini Windjammer with careful mic positioning and use of an additional shockmount or suspension to reduce handling noise. Avoid compressing the internal lining against the capsule, and inspect the fur regularly for debris that can affect performance.
