Basket System

Super-Shield Kit

The Super-Shield Kit is a complete windshield and shock mounting system for shotgun microphones up to 300mm in length.

The Super-Shield is the updated version of a well-proven Rycote design - a rigid basket windshield that totally encloses the microphone for the best wind noise reduction. The central chassis supports a range of "pods" in lengths to fit almost all location-style microphones, and provides for good aerodynamic balance and adjustment of centre-of-mass balance. Our patented Lyre suspension isolates the microphone, and together with a captive cable, minimises handling noise. The pods have a fast-to-use twist-lock fixing to allow easy access to the microphone.
