Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How would this fit an Electro-voice RE50?

A: The mechanical specs for the RE50 show a maximum diameter of nearly 2 inches. It looks like the Mini Windjammer will expand to only about an inch. I do not think that these two were meant for each other.

Q: 2. Is the included female to 2x male XLR cable meant to be just an adapter as it seems short? I would be connecting to MixPre-3

A: The Y-cable that is included with the NT4 stereo microphone is 10.3 feet long and can be used to connect directly to the inputs on a MixPre-3. If a longer length is needed, you can attach standard 3-pin XLR cables onto each side as extensions. The included Y-cable is the Rode NT4-DXLR Stereo 5-Pin XLR to Dual 3-Pin XLR Cable for NT-4 Fixed X/Y Condenser Microphone (B&H # RONT4DXLRCBL).

Q: 3. What's the best blimp/dead for this microphone?

A: The Rycote Mini Windjammer provides optimum wind diffusion for smaller microphones. Like the standard Windjammer, the Mini Windjammer provides 10 - 12dB extra protection over standard windscreens. This Windjammer accommodates the Rode NT4.

Q: 4. Would this work over the Sennheiser MZW 64-PRO Foam Windscreen? If not, is there another slip over Windjammer that would?

A: The Rycote Special 90 Mini Windjammer (BH # RYMWS90) is too small to fit the Sennheiser MZW 64-PRO Foam Windscreen (Black), BH # SEMZW64P. The WindTech Mic-Muff Microphone Windshield MM-8 (BH # WIMM8) is recommended.

Q: 5. If you mount this item like pictured, what is the point of the velcro? It has no way of latching. It seems like it is supposed to cinch around the mic part itself, but then there's way to much room in the front. Also, am I supposed to leave the foam on?

A: The wind protection works best with the foam in place. When I tighten the velcro around the barrel and then pulls it back into the notch between the barrel and the body, I get a very nice and snug fit.

Q: 6. Would this work on the Sennheiser ME2?

A: Hi Timm,I believe it will work, although our official recommendation based on testing is the following:a href= http://mymic.rycote.com/products/lavalier-solutions/lavalier-windjammer/black-lavalier-windjammer/ target= _blank http://mymic.rycote.com/products/lavalier-solutions/lavalier-windjammer/black-lavalier-windjammer//aThere is a slight difference in capsule diameter and length, but the 4080 Mini WJ should cover everything as intended. Please note that you probably won't be able to use the supplied clip with the ME 2 if you use this solution.

Q: 7. The spec says it fits mics 1.9" Diameter but I think it's wrong. What's the actual diameter it fits?

A: The Rycote Mini Windjammer Special 90 is specifically designed for use over a foam windshield of 50 mm diameter and 90 mm long. The 1.9" diameter mentioned in the product description is actually in reference to the diameter of a compatible foam windscreen (50mm = 1.9").

Q: 8. Can this mic be plugged into a Panasonic GH-4 camera which I believe supplies minimal power to some mics?

A: The GH4 will provide plug in power to some mics. The NT4 will require phantom power which is more than the 1-5 volts your camera can provide. You can however use the mic using a 9 volt battery which will power the mic, and a Stereo XLR to Mini 1/8 inch Cable is included in the package which allows for connection to your camera.

Q: 9. Has anyone tried this on the deity v3 pro?

A: The diameter of the two mics is the same, and the Deity is less than an inch longer that the Rode, so yes, it should be a good fit.

Q: 10. Will it fit a Rode Reporter mic?

A: The correct windjammer for the Rode reporter would be B&H# RYWJ3550FW. You may also consider the Rycote FWS-35/50 foam screen for an extra layer of protection.
