Rycote Modular Windshield WS 3 Kit (30mm, No CB)

Rycote Modular Windshield WS 3 Kit (30mm, No CB)

Please Note: Microphone is NOT included

Designed for the Neumann RSM191 stereo microphone system, the 30mm Modular Windshield Kit 3 from Rycote provides your shotgun microphone with protection from wind noise. The kit includes a windshield WS 3, a windjammer WJ 3, a pistol grip handle, a boompole adapter, and an XLR holder MK II. This modular system can be configured to allow almost any microphone to be shock-mounted with varying degrees of wind-shielding.

Rycote XLR Holder Mk II
The Rycote XLR Holder Mk II fits between any 3/8″ male threaded boom pole or mic stand and any 3/8″ female microphone shock-mount or windshield system. The holder securely grips all XLR connectors, at a set distance from the side of the pole to prevent the XLR plug from becoming unclipped or making noise.

The XLR Holder Mk II is also strong enough to support the fitting of most standard plug-on transmitters. It’s made from a metal replacement polymer, developed in the automotive industry for SUV door handles. The material is stiff like a metal, but it also features a rubber additive to reduce brittleness and a UV stabilizer to prevent breakdown in UV light.

• Fits between 3/8″ male threaded boom pole or mic stand and 3/8″ female microphone shock-mount or windshield system
• Stronger design with innovative material
• XLR won’t click out (closed clamp)
• Can also hold plug-on transmitter
• It is not specific to the boom adapter, so it can be used with other mounts

Rycote Pistol Grip Handle with Ratchet Lever
The Rycote Pistol Grip with Ratchet Lever is designed for use with the Modular Suspension System. The pistol grip handle features a comfortable design and ratchet style release lever. A 3/8″ female brass thread will adapt the pistol grip to boom poles and a slot for an XLR connector is molded in the side.

Rycote Windjammer 3 for WS3 Windshield
The Rycote Windjammer 3 is a synthetic fur cover that offers approximately 12 dB of wind-noise reduction over a standard windshield. It fits securely using locking zip fasteners and touch fasteners. The materials used are transparent to audio and will remain so if regularly groomed with the brush provided. Each Windjammer fits one specific size of Rycote Windshield. This windjammer fits the WS3 Windshield.

Lower frequencies are reduced an additional 10 dB offering frequency reductions between 30 to 35 dB from 75 Hz and below.

Rycote Windshield #3
The Rycote Modular Windshield is a professional windscreen intended for use with microphones used in field audio applications such as film, ENG/EFP and professional video.

The Windshield is the core (body) of Rycote’s Mono Modular Windshield series and an array of interchangeable parts and accessories are available. Optional end-caps and extensions provide added length for accommodating larger microphones and mounts. Every windshield and part model is specified with a numerical designation, signifying different lengths and sizes. All windshield models include the necessary body and extension parts to accommodate the desired length.

Hytrel Plastic Construction
A material called Hytrel is used on the end rings and shield. The material aids in creating the “dead” space necessary for quiet operation.
Interlocking Ends
Modular locking end rings provide quick and easy replacement of dented ends and modular extensions.
