question

What's the difference between this cavity-type baseball and the original one?
Asked by: Hans
This in fact the original rycote baseball. B&H sells size 21/22 as a single baseball as well as 3 pack. B&H can special order the other sizes. The Rycote Baseball comes in 19/20, 21/22 (green end-cap) and 24/25 variants, reflecting compatible microphone diameters in mm.

question

Will this work with a Shure SM-58?
Asked by: Lock M.
Hi: thanks for your question! I'm afraid not: the head of the SM-58 is much too bulbous. Please see the following webpage for a list of compatible mics: http://rycote.com/microphone-windshield-shock-mount/baseball/. MF
