If you're doing production sound, this is the one you want. It's done me well for over 60 shoots and is standing up to the abuse this occasionally clumsy oaf can offer. I've even lost the Rycote brush for the dead cat, and Rycote has replaced it for free after an email. Awesome product. Sounds amazing. You will not be disappointed.

Will this Windshield fit the Sennheiser MKH 8060?
Asked by: Andrew
The Rycote 010324 Windshield Kit for Sennheiser MKH 416 and Select Shotgun Microphones is intended for use with microphones that are approximately 10" long and the Sennheiser MKH 8060 Short Shotgun Microphone is just 7" long.

Does this have enough clearance to mount an MKH 418?
Asked by: Girard
No. The Rycote 010324 Windshield Kit is intended for use with microphones that are 9.84" (250 mm) long and between 0.75 to 0.98" (19 to 25 mm) in diameter. The Sennheiser MKH 418S Stereo Shotgun Microphone is 11" (280 mm) long with a 0.75" (19 mm) diameter, so it is too long for this particular windshield. As a compatible model for the MKH 418S, you can use the Rycote 086069 Modular Windshield Kit WS 3 with XLR-5F and Connbox CB4 (B&H # RYMWS3STKIT).

this blimp has enough room inside for the ambient emesser 308?
Asked by: Anonymous
As the Ambient Recording Emesser ATE308 Figure-8 Microphone is quite small in its form factor, the Rycote Windshield Kit for Sennheiser MKH 416 and Select Shotgun Microphones would provide more than enough room to house it within.
