- 1Description
- Product Demo
The Rycote Undercover pads are a disposable mount and windshield used for mounting lavalier microphones underneath clothing. There are 3 sheets of 10 pads (30 pads total) supplied in each package. The pads are double coated with a peel-off adhesive and a soft-woven material. The adhesive is peeled onto clothing, providing a tacky mounting surface for lavalier microphones. The woven fabric disc is placed over the microphone and adhesive surface, sandwiching the microphone and eliminating structure and rustling noise caused by movement of clothing, cables, etc.

Favorite new thing for my audio kit
Took these along to a shoot for the first time, subjects doing a LOT of action (yoga poses!) and clothing/movement noise was kept to a minimum thanks to the Undercovers. I love it! A bargain for the headache they'll save your mix later. Want to try Overcovers sometime too, but for my purposes at this shoot the Undercovers were an A+. As I saw mentioned, you may have a little struggle fitting these over a lav with its own windscreen still on, but it's doable - I fit them over the ME-2 mics and kept their own windscreens on for extra insurance against breath and pops. Best in these situations to pre-stretch the felt before you attempt to apply it.

This product is so awesome!!
We did our first video shoot with it yesterday and it worked perfect and was super easy to use. Used the sticky part to tape our Sony lavalier microphone to the inside of the female talent's shirt and then put the black fabric over it. Her long hair also draped over the area with the microphone and we had perfect sound. I was amazed during the edit today - no crackles, no drop off, no inconsistencies. Best of all we never saw the microphone and never had to fuss to adjust it during the 6 hour shoot..... I had been specifically looking for a vampire clip and he said we should try these out too. Glad I listened 'cause it really saved us!

Very helpful
These things are great. Keep in mind that you will still get rustling noises depending upon where you stick this. Two tricks: For women, this works well if you can stick directly to the skin, just inside the shirt, in between or above the cleavage area. This area for most women isn't in contact with their shirt and therefore, you're less likely to have the shirt rub against the mic. For men, I stick under the collar and run the wire of the mic down the back. The underside of the collar is not visible by camera and doesn't come into contact with other parts of clothing.

Nice for Countryman EMW
I use the Undercovers for Production audio for film, TV and documentaries. I was surprised at how well it works mounted directly the the chest when using a side address mic like the Countryman EMW. Still have to be aware of clothing issues and so forth. As confirmed in other reviews it does not work well with the Sennheiser ME2 since the capsule body is so much larger, that being the case nothing is going to replace medical tape and the other tricks of the trade.

I love these things. They make quick work of hiding mics and help prevent clothing noise quite effectively. There are many times when subjects clothing won't allow for the standard clips that come with most lavs. Undercovers solve that problem. Only issue I've had is that the stickies came loose on a silk jacket. Otherwise they seem to stay safe and secure in most situations.

Good product, will help with lavs
Purchased these to use for a webseries shoot. They really do stick well on just about anything. Skin. Clothes. Had very little issues with it falling. The only negatives about this pack is that if you're not careful when removing the felt circles, they will fall out everywhere. Very loose inside the plastic bag. So, just be careful taking them out and you'll be fine.

Great product!
Received this a few days ago and have already used it on a few shoots. I needed an effective and easy way to hide a lavaliere mic and this is it. It's easy to apply and can be placed virtually anywhere on the subject. It can be easily hidden. Great product.

Add's Rustle
I am a wedding filmmaker so I need to hide lav mics all the time. What I found is that the undercovers actually created more rustle noise then just simply placing the exposed mic under a shirt.
