Foam Sweet Foam From Rycote

The UK-based manufacturer of microphone windshields and suspension systems, Rycote, is continuing its Spring schedule of new product releases with the announcement that is has begun production of a large range of foam microphone windshields.
The new foams are available in a variety of shapes and sizes and are designed for use with microphones of all types, including small and large-diaphragm mics, hand-held reporter's models and shotgun microphones.
Many regular customers assume that Rycote has always made foam windshields alongside its instantly recognisable longer-haired Windjammers and Softies - but this is a departure for them. Made of durable high-quality acoustic foam which is resistant to damage from moisture and sunlight, the new windshields offer up to 20dB of pop and wind attenuation depending on conditions - but without concurrent high-frequency loss. The foam can even be custom-printed with company logos if required, using either the transfer or flock process for a thicker, more durable printed logo.
Rycote's new foam windshields will be available from June 1, in a variety of colours, and in a choice of standard or velour finish. Prices vary depending on the size of the windshields, required quantity and selected finish - contact your local Rycote distributor for details.
