Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can this Windbreaker be used with the Rycote Super-Blimp Kit for Rode NTG?

A: The Bubblebee Industries The Windbreaker for Rycote Modular Windshield WS 4 Kit is built specifically for the Rycote Modular Windshield WS 4 Kit system. It is not meant to be used with other windshield systems, and compatibility is not guaranteed.

Q: 2. Mkh50?

A: No, the Bubblebee Industries The Spacer Bubble Windshield & Fur Cover System for Small-Diaphragm Mics (Black, Extra-Small) is not compatible for use with the Sennheiser MKH 50 Microphone. All of the Spacer Bubble models are designed to fit microphones that have a diameter of 18 to 24mm, but the MKH 50 has a 25mm diameter. As a better option, you can use the Rycote Super-Softie Windshield for Shotgun Mics - 5cm, 24/25 (B&H # RYWSQAT), which is designed to fit mics that have a diameter of 24 to 25mm and it is compatible for use with the MKH 50.

Q: 3. If I attach the LG size Spacer Bubble Windshield and Fur Cover to the AT BP4029 (AT835ST), how much mic shaft will be left?

A: The AT BP4029 is 9.29" long, and the Spacer Bubble Windshield & Fur Cover System has an inner depth of 5.1", so the remaining shaft would be 4.19".

Q: 4. Is it compatible with Sony a1 camera?

A: Yes, the Sennheiser MKE 440 Stereo Shotgun Microphone is compatible with the Sony A1 Mirrorless Camera.

Q: 5. What is the rearward rejection like on this mic?

A: The rearward and lateral rejection is quite good. It is not 100% of course. I was shocked at how good it is at lateral rejection. It almost completely eliminated the noise from the shutter of my DSLR with the mic about 10 feet to the side up about 5 feet. My rode mics in x/y configuration 10 feet to the right picked up significant shutter noise. It also greatly reduces room echo.

Q: 6. Will the newer iPhones work with this and a lighting adapter?

A: It will not work properly. Only one of the two stereo mic capsules will work. If your primary use for this mic is for your iPhone, you are better off with either a Mono mic (such as the Sennheiser MKE400 and similar microphones. If you need stereo, look for a which is designed for the iPhone with a lightning connector on it (Shure and Rode, both have good options)

Q: 7. What is the outer length in cm?

A: The Bubblebee Industries The Windbreaker is designed specifically for use with the Rycote Modular Windshield WS 4 Kit. The manufacturer has not provided any specifications for the Windbreaker, but the Rycote Windshield has a body length of 33 cm, so the internal length of the Windbreaker should match..

Q: 8. Can i plug the Sennheiser MKE 440 into my Tascam DR-05 Portable Handheld Digital Audio Recorder ?

A: Yes Tuscam DR-05 has 3.5mm mic/line sterio input (unbalanced)For professional work I suggest Tuscam DR-100mkiii which has XLR inputs and Senheiser MKE 440 using Alzo Stereo Microphone XLR Adapter Cord for Pro Camcoders (B&H#AL130). It will produce excellent broadcast quality sound.

Q: 9. How much more does the Space Bubble reduce wind noise than the Windkiller? 5db? 10db?

A: Bubblebee Industries has not provided a spec for the exact amount of attenuation provided by The Spacer Bubble, likely because this number would be contingent on multiple factors such as wind speed, direction, microphone sensitivity, and so on.

Q: 10. How does this mic hold up in LOUD environments? Clipping issues at all?

A: No clipping issues as far as my use with it is concerned. I am very impressed with the mics ability to pull the audio out of the direction its pointed amidst a loud environment. B&H demonstrates this quite nicely in their own in store review video. Out of all the mics I have used, I honestly give it a solid 10/10 all around.

[Faux Fur] The Bubblebee Windshield w/ short fur worked fabulously with my Cmit 5u. I took it on job in the woods & it canceled the breeze completely. It did not muffle whispering dialog at all (actually seemed to enhance it). I thought the price was more than reasonable compared to competitors price. Strongly recommend!

[Faux Fur] Using this with the 416 and it simply rocks. Boom pole noise is almost totally resolved when moving. The short fur is good enough for most situations.

[Faux Fur] I started doing a number of exterior interviews and was relying solely on lavs placed inside shirts. That was successful. But I was hanging a shotgun mike as well and had wind noise with even the slightest breeze.

Bought the Bubblebee unit and looked at a weather app to see which day that week was the windiest. Went to my local park on that day where breezes come up the hill briskly from the Hudson River. In 20 mph wind there was absolutely no problem. Clean sound.

[1] Last day of shooting on a short film today (Saturday) and I saw on Thursday that we were going to get a lot of wind, and boy did we! Fortunately I bought this and paid the $15ish for expedited delivery and it arrived Friday morning.

We had some pretty powerful gusts, but this thing did a great job of dealing with that. Of course you can still hear the wind on the trees, crops, etc. but I'm not hearing much that's effecting the mic itself. Still able to record dialog just fine. DaVinci Resolve's vocal isolation feature is doing quite a bit to help clear the background noise out, but without this cover I doubt there would have been much dialog for the program to be able to isolate.

[Faux Fur] Found out on a Thursday that my Saturday shoot to wrap up a short film was going to be super windy. So I paid the extra $15ish for overnight shipping and got it before noon the next day. Worked great for the conditions we were in. DaVinci's vocal isolation helped get rid of the sound we picked up of the trees, crops, etc. but thanks to this baby we were able to pick up all the dialog we needed to get without any issues.
