About Rycote WS 3

It is essential for audio professionals to capture clear, undisturbed sound, and the WS 3 Modular Windshield Kit with CB4 Connbox is the quintessential solution for achieving high-quality audio recordings in challenging outdoor environments. This durable and effective kit is the industry standard for providing unparalleled isolation from wind and handling noise, ensuring that your stereo microphones with 5-pin XLR connectors perform optimally.

The kit's versatility is evident in its modular design, which allows for a tailored fit to accommodate a wide range of microphone configurations. The professional-grade Modular Suspension utilizes Rycote's advanced Lyre suspension webs to cradle the microphone, delivering complete isolation from handling and cable-borne noises. This innovative design ensures that your recordings are free from unwanted vibrations and disturbances.

At the heart of the system is the high-quality Modular Windshield, which encases the microphone and its connector with precision. When mounted onto the Modular Suspension, it offers up to 30dB of wind noise attenuation, acting as the first layer of defense against the elements. This robust windshield is meticulously engineered to shield your microphone, preserving the integrity of your audio in windy conditions.

For an additional layer of protection, the kit includes the iconic Windjammer, a synthetic fur cover that fits snugly over the Modular Windshield. Introduced by Rycote in 1985, the Windjammer is renowned for its effectiveness, providing an extra 20dB of wind noise attenuation. Equipped with a drawstring and toggle, it ensures a secure and easy fit, further enhancing the kit's ability to capture pristine sound.
