The Auray WSF-2216-WP Water-Resistant Shotgun Foam Windscreenis designed to reduce unwanted broadband wind noise and vocal pops while protecting the microphone from inclement weather. It is made from specialty water-resistant acoustic foam that offers added protection for your mic from rain and snow. The density of the foam is optimized to help protect the microphone element from air bursts and moisture without muffling the sound.

The WSF-2216-WP has an inside depth of 16cm and is designed for use with shotgun microphones. When used on a shotgun microphone, this windscreen is effective in minimizing wind noise and plosive sounds while keeping the microphone dry. It is most effective in calm to light breeze conditions (0-7mph), with dry weather or light to moderate precipitation. It can be used indoors for protection against drafts caused by air-conditioners. Users can generally expect a 4dB to 8dB reduction in wind noise, with very slight dampening of high frequencies. For most applications, the very slight high frequency dampening is a worthwhile exchange for the notable wind noise reduction, and protection from moisture.

The WSF-2216-WP's foam is hypoallergenic and washable and helps prevent moisture and dirt from damaging your microphone. The windscreen is designed to fit microphones from Rode, Sennheiser, Sony, Schoeps and others.

The WSF-2216-WP Foam Windscreen for Shotgun Microphones is an effective solution for basic wind and foul weather protection.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. It's compatible with ECM-XM1?

A: The Auray WSS-2012 Professional Windshield for Shotgun Microphones - 4.7" will fit on the Sony ECM-XM1 Shotgun Microphone, but since the WSS-2012 is 4.7" deep and the mic is only 6.5" long, the windshield may be a bit too long for the mic. As a better option, you can use the Rycote Standard Hole Classic Softie Wind-Screen - 3.9" Long, 0.7 to 0.8" Diameter Hole, Gray (B&H # RYS10M) or the RODE WS11 Windshield for VideoMic NTG Mic (B&H # ROWS11). The VideoMic NTG is about the same size as the ECM-XM1 so the windshield should provide a good fit.

Q: 2. Any difference between this and the Rycote classic softie - other than price?

A: Not that I can see. I own both, and it appears to me that they are the same manufacturer with different labels.

Q: 3. Does it fit the Zoom M3 MicTrak Stereo Shotgun Microphone and Recorder?

A: The Auray Professional Windshield for Shotgun Microphones (5.5") will fit the Zoom M4 MicTrak, although there will be a half inch of extra space from the tip of the microphone to the tip of the windscreen.

Q: 4. Does it fit the Senheisser MKH 416?

A: Indeed! It does fit the Sennheisser MKH 416

Q: 5. Can the ntg3b plug directly into a Sony a7s2? Or is the ntg4+ the only one with a built in phantom?

A: The NTG-3 requires an external phantom power source and is not directly compatible with the a7s2. The Rode NTG-4+ features a built in rechargeable battery that will allow for direct connection to the camera as well as the Rode NTG-2 which is able to accept a AA battery for power.

Q: 6. does this properly fit a sennheiser me 66?

A: I'm sorry, but that screen would not fit well. I would recommend the KTek # KTKRME200 , or Auray # AUWSS2018 for a good fit.

Q: 7. will this fit the diety d3 pro?

A: Yes the Auray WSR-2012 will fit the Deity V-Mic D3 Pro.

Q: 8. Does the Auray Professional Windshield for Shotgun Microphones (7") fit a sennheiser MKE 300 mic ?

A: The Auray Professional Windshield for Shotgun Microphones (7"), BH # AUWSS2018, is not compatible with the Sennheiser MKE300 microphone.

Q: 9. Will this fit a Sennheiser MKE 400?

A: It might fit over the shotgun barrel but it is probably much too long and will have a empty gap past the tip of the shotgun. This windscreen fits well on a ME 66.

Q: 10. does this properly fit a sennheiser me 66 shotgun mic?

A: This windjammer would be a bit small for the ME66 capsule. Here's is a longer option B&H # AUWSS2018.
