Rycote Overcovers white set — 6 Fur windshields with 30 Stickies for microphone wind protection

Rycote Overcovers white set includes six fur overcovers and 30 adhesive stickies designed to provide additional wind protection for microphones. The fur overcovers fit around existing microphone windshields to help reduce wind noise and preserve intelligibility during outdoor recording. This set is intended for use in field recording, ENG reporting, location sound and broadcast applications where improved wind attenuation is required without altering the microphone's mounting or acoustic positioning.

Advantages

The soft synthetic fur material offers consistent wind diffusion while remaining lightweight and easy to handle. Overcovers slip over windshields quickly and securely, and the included stickies provide temporary adhesion to help keep covers in place on various foam or fur windshields. The neutral white color provides a non-reflective option suitable for different lighting environments and production needs. The combination of multiple covers and adhesive pads ensures ready replacement and flexibility during extended shoots or changing weather conditions.

Suitable for

• Field recording and location sound where wind is present
• ENG and broadcast reporting in outdoor environments
• Documentary and film production capturing outdoor dialogue
• Portable interview setups and run-and-gun journalism

Key specifications

• Contents: 6 fur overcovers and 30 adhesive stickies
• Color: white
• Material: synthetic fur overcover with adhesive pads for temporary attachment
• Designed to fit over existing microphone windshields and foam covers
• Lightweight and packable for location work

How to use

Place a fur overcover over the existing microphone windshield, aligning it so the cover fully encloses the foam or furry windshield. If additional temporary adhesion is required, apply a sticky pad between the overcover and the underlying windshield surface to reduce slippage. Check that the cover does not touch the microphone capsule or interfere with the microphone's mounting or suspension system. For best results, install the overcover before exposure to strong wind and confirm placement after movement or repositioning.

Usage recommendations

Use the white overcovers to maintain neutral visual appearance during daytime shoots and choose adhesive stickies when working in windy conditions or during extended takes. Replace covers that become saturated or matted to preserve consistent wind attenuation and avoid contact with the microphone capsule to prevent handling noise.
