About Rycote Stereo Cyclone Windshield

Explore the pinnacle of audio recording protection with the Stereo Cyclone Mid-Side Windshield Kit 13, meticulously crafted for the Sennheiser MKH 60 and Ambient Emesser Microphone. This professional-grade kit is the result of Rycote's innovative product development, responding to the demands of audio professionals for a durable, high-quality stereo windshield solution.

The Rycote Stereo Cyclone range is a testament to the brand's commitment to versatility and excellence in audio equipment design. Each kit in the range is tailored to support popular stereo recording techniques, including X/Y, Mid-Side, and Double Mid-Side, as well as Single Mic and Ambisonic mic applications. The Stereo Cyclone Mid-Side Windshield Kit 13 stands out for its precise compatibility with the Sennheiser MKH 60 and Ambient Emesser Microphone, ensuring that your recordings are free from wind interference and other disruptive elements.

Crafted with an innovative approach, the Stereo Cyclone kits maintain a compact size without compromising on performance. The Small or Medium Cyclone basket sizes are a testament to Rycote's ability to balance form and function. Each windshield is hand-built by skilled technicians in Stroud, reflecting the brand's dedication to quality and attention to detail.

The sleek new Connbox design is a highlight of this kit, engineered for superior internal cable routing, isolation, and vibration reduction. Custom-built for each stereo configuration, the Connbox ensures that every connection is optimized for the best possible performance, allowing you to focus on capturing pristine audio.

Rycote's industry-leading Lyre microphone suspension system is integrated into the Stereo Cyclone, significantly reducing handling noise. The patent-pending Floating Basket Suspension further enhances this by preventing acoustic re-radiation, a common challenge with stereo configurations. This innovative design ensures that the entire structure 'floats', providing exceptional vibration isolation.

Acoustic transparency is paramount in the Stereo Cyclone range. The unique open-cell structure with curved contours eliminates room-tone effects found in traditional tubular windshield designs. The 3D-Tex material used in the asymmetric basket reduces surface turbulence and acoustic impedance, offering unparalleled wind protection.

For extreme weather conditions, the optional Cyclone Windjammer can be added, delivering wind-noise reduction that surpasses other windshield systems. The Magnetic Z-Locking System allows for quick and effortless attachment or removal of the windshield, ensuring that you can adapt to any recording scenario with ease.

The 3D-Tex material not only excels in performance but is also designed for low maintenance. Whether you're dusting it off after a light session or rinsing it for a deep clean, this material maintains its outstanding, transparent performance over time.

In summary, the Stereo Cyclone Mid-Side Windshield Kit 13 is an essential tool for audio professionals seeking a reliable, high-quality solution for recording in any environment. Its innovative design, professional-grade materials, and compatibility with the Sennheiser MKH 60 and Ambient Emesser Microphone make it a superior choice for capturing audio with clarity and realism.
