Rycote BBG Reviews

Works well in windy weather

Used it in the Himalayas in late November. Yes, it was super windy. No, I didn't hear any noise during capture. Worth the additional cost. Highly recommend.

Works nice

The Windshield works just fine with the Windjammer! From my experience it is better if you have your windshield size 1mm bigger (not more) than the actual diameter of the mic. When diameters are the same, the BBG will fit, but if you need to put it on and off from time to time, it is better to get an extra millimeter to smoothen the operation. Will not affect the efficiency of wind reduction.

question

Will this end cap fit on the Rycote Windshield #4? They don't sell the individual replacement caps so I'm looking for a cheaper option.
Asked by: Mitchell N.
The Rycote Baby Ball Gag Windshield will not work as replacement end cap for the Rycote windshield kit #4. You will require Rycote MFR # 018501. It is a replacement part (Mono Modular Windshield End Cap) sold at cost through their parts store.

question

Is it suitable for a tetramic?
Asked by: Terry P.
This windshield has a diameter that is too large for the Tetramic. We do carry a model made specifically for the mic, which is the Rycote Modular Windshield TetraMic Kit, B&H # RY086047.

Will the Deity S-Mic2s fit ok, and which Rycote ...

Will the Deity S-Mic2s fit ok, and which Rycote BBG will be best ?
Asked by: Vincent
The Rycote BBG Windshield fits microphones that have a 20mm diameter. The Deity Microphones S-Mic 2S Short Shotgun Microphone has a diameter of 19mm, so the BBG is going to be a bit loose. You could use a rubber grommet or rubber band to create a tighter fit so the BBG stays in place. This is the smallest size BBG that Rycote offers.
