Ideal for various outdoor ENG, broadcast, and film applications, the Rycote Cyclone Windshield Kit is a remarkable solution. It showcases an ingenious two-piece "Z-Locking" basket design that securely attaches magnetically around your microphone, effectively isolating it from wind-induced noise. With the Cyclone Windshield alone, you can achieve up to a 50 dB reduction, while coupling it with a Windjammer on top can provide an even more impressive >60 dB reduction. The unique cone-like shape enhances transparency by minimizing reflections from parallel surfaces in the recording environment, resulting in pristine audio recordings for outdoor interviews, location shoots, and more. Furthermore, this kit offers wind noise reduction that surpasses the performance of traditional modular-style windshield/windjammer combinations.
Incorporating a "multi-suspension" design, the Cyclone tackles not only wind noise but also handles noise, cable-borne noises, and self-noise generated by the windshield basket. This innovative design effectively isolates and dampens noise and vibrations induced by the windshield itself, ultimately enhancing the overall recording quality.
Included in the kit is the Cyclone Suspension equipped with 72-shore Universal Lyres, a Cyclone XLR cable, a pair of Universal Lyres 62-shore specifically designed for lightweight microphones, and a hex key driver for adjusting the Lyres on the suspension.
