Key features are:
• 3D-Tex & the novel shape and give greatly improved wind noise reduction compared to conventional “soft” windshields.
• A true cavity design, with superb performance at extreme low frequencies
• A rough-service windshield, robust enough for the most challenging ENG situations
• Maintains excellent acoustic transparency in almost all situations,
• High immunity to rain-soaking
The Super-Shield is the latest version of Rycote’s rigid basket windshield, replacing the S Series range, and sitting alongside the flagship modular windshield product.
Key features are:
• A lightweight basket windshield system with a minimum number of parts, that is simple to use
• Configurable for aerodynamic and centre-of-mass balance
• Excellent wind noise reduction and lyre-standard isolation from handling noise
• Removable fur Windjammer to add the highest levels of wind noise suppression
