This is not the appropriate blimp system for the Schoeps CMC641 microphones. The Rycote Stereo Cyclone MS Kit 5 Windshield System for Schoeps CMC Pair, BH #RYCWSK5 is made to work with CMS series microphones.

I have a question about the output. This has single 5 output -- can I still mix each microphone individually ?
Asked by: Nathan
Yes. You can use the Rycote Stereo Cyclone MS Kit 17 Windshield System for Sennheiser MKH 8030 with MKH 8040 / MKH 8050 (Use without Mic Preamps) with a cable or adapter that has a 5-pin XLR female connector (to attach to the connector on the Cyclone) and dual 3-pin XLR male connectors and then you can record each mic onto a separate channel. You can use a cable like the Universal Audio 5-Pin XLR Female to Dual 3-Pin XLR Male Breakout Cable - 25', Black (BH # UNCBLSPHER25) or the Laird Digital Cinema 5-Pin Female XLR to Dual 3-Pin XLR Male Balanced Line Breakout Cable (BH # LASDAUD610), or an adapter like the Remote Audio 5-Pin Stereo XLR Female to Dual XLR Male Y-Cable - 18" (BH # RECAXSTE) combined with standard 3-pin XLR cables in any length needed to connect to the input channels. That will allow you to control each mic separately and mix them as desired.
