Rycote Cyclone Windshield Kit (Small with Lemo FVN Connector)
Key Features
  • Complete Windshield & Suspension System
  • >60 dB of Wind Reduction with Windjammer
  • Isolation from Handling Noise
  • Magnetized Two-Piece Basket Design
Ideal for a multitude of outdoor ENG, broadcast, and film applications, this small Cyclone Windshield Kit from Rycote features a two-piece "Z-Locking" basket design that magnetically affixes around your microphone, isolating the mic from wind-caused noise. Up to 50 dB of reduction can be achieved with the use of the Cyclone Windshield alone, and >60 dB is possible when used with a Windjammer on top of it. Increased transparency is achieved due to the cone-like shape, which reduces reflections from parallel surfaces in the recording environment, providing clean audio recordings during outdoor interviews, location shoots, and more. It's designed to provide wind noise reduction that exceeds traditional modular-style windshield/windjammer combined performance.

Rycote Cyclone Overview

Ideal for a multitude of outdoor ENG, broadcast, and film applications, this small Cyclone Windshield Kit from Rycote features a two-piece "Z-Locking" basket design that magnetically affixes around your microphone, isolating the mic from wind-caused noise. Up to 50 dB of reduction can be achieved with the use of the Cyclone Windshield alone, and >60 dB is possible when used with a Windjammer on top of it. Increased transparency is achieved due to the cone-like shape, which reduces reflections from parallel surfaces in the recording environment, providing clean audio recordings during outdoor interviews, location shoots, and more. It's designed to provide wind noise reduction that exceeds traditional modular-style windshield/windjammer combined performance.

The Cyclone introduces a "multi-suspension" design that provides isolation against handling noise, cable-borne noises, and windshield basket self-noise. This multi-suspension design inhibits noise and vibration induced by the windshield itself from being mechanically transmitted, thereby improving recording quality.

The kit includes the Cyclone Suspension fitted with 72-shore Universal Lyres, a Cyclone Lemo FVN connector, a pair of Universal Lyres 62-shore for lightweight microphones, and a hex key driver for making adjustments to the Lyres on the suspension.

Heavy duty wind protection

A must have for AB or MS outdoor ambiences in windy conditions. Wrap from the bottom of the windshield to a foot down or more with ace bandage or similar to stop wind whistling through knobs and cables.

I love the magnets for a quick release the only bummer is the mount is a little small when unsung just a softie as the softie tends to rub the shock mount, limiting its eng usefulness when in the run

If i own a large cyclone, will i be able to use the mount from the large cyclone with the medium windshield?
Asked by: Mike
The medium-sized Rycote Cyclone Windshield should also work with the same mount that you are using for the large-sized Rycote Cyclone Windshield.

can i use a sanken co-100k with this cyclone?
Asked by: curtis
No, the Sanken CO-100K microphone will not fit in Rycote Cyclone Windshield Kit - Small (B&H # RYCWSKS). You will need the Rycote Cyclone Windshield Kit - Medium (B&H # RYCWSKM). The medium-size Cyclone is for use with shotgun microphones that are 174 to 255mm long with a diameter of 19 to 25mm.

Can I use Rycote Cyclone Medium with Sennheiser MKE600?
Asked by: HIROSHI
Rycote recommends using the slightly larger-sized model, which is the Rycote 089101 Cyclone Windshield Kit - Large (B&H # RYCWSKL), as a better match for the Sennheiser MKE 600 Shotgun Microphone.

Is there a size for the Cyclone that will accommodate both an MKH60 and miniCMIT? Or am I better off going for the Modular Windshield?
Asked by: Godofredo
While the Medium Cyclone would work for the miniCMIT, it would be a tight fit for the MKH60. We would recommend going with a Modular Windshield to accommodate both better.

Can the medium size allow the spacing between the 2 shockmounts clost enough to accommodate the Sennheiser 8050 (with additional length of XLR cable at back)?
Asked by: David
The length of the MKH-8050 mic is 2.9". The length of the microphone in the pictures of the Rycote Cyclone is 9.88". Based on this, I surmise that you will have little to no trouble trying to do this.
