The Windbubble PRO lav mic windshield consists of a soft rubber mount. Unlike hard plastic mounts this special rubber mount absorbs shocks and stops vibrations transferring to your mic’s capsule. The rubber mount holds the furry windshield firmly in place on your mic, making sure it doesn't slip off. In addition to this, the rubber mount has a slight conical shape inside, which ensures you can't push your microphone too far into the windshield. This is very important to ensure that your microphone has a "bubble" of dead-air around the capsule for optimal wind protection and audio clarity. This means that your mic will consistently stay in the best possible position for maximum efficiency.
There are four sizes of rubber mounts available to fit the most commonly used omnidirectional lavalier mics, headset mics, or field recording stereo-pair microphones (The Windbubble Pro (Twin pack) Large).
The fixed positioning of the mic using the rubber mount has given us the ability to engineer a smaller overall profile for the Windbubble PRO without compromising on the efficacy of the wind protection. However, each mount size is also available in a larger 'Extreme' version which consists of an inner foam core, surrounded by our much-loved multi-pile faux fur, to offer you an even greater level of wind protection for your microphone. These are especially helpful on those super windy exteriors and a perfect solution for factual, ENG and broadcast shoots.
Every Windbubble PRO is available in our renowned multi-pile faux fur. This unique fur has been specially designed with varying lengths of fur to help gradually slow down the wind particles before reaching the mic. The base of the fur has a higher density of shorter hairs and an acoustically transparent backing material for maximum frequency transparency. So instead of the wind hammering on the microphone and making those horrible, “I’m in the middle of a hurricane,” sounds, the capsule is kept in a calm bubble of wind protection and allowed to perform at its best.
Each Windbubble PRO is available in a single or twin-pack of lapel mic windshields and in four different colours (black, grey, white, and beige) to allow you to colour-match to the costume or outfit of the talent.
Please note: The Windbubble PRO is only suitable for omnidirectional microphones. If you have a directional microphone, then the original Windbubble is the best microphone windshield for your mic.
