Questions our customers asked
Will my microphone fit?
Any shotgun mic up to 325 mm long, including the RODE NTG1, NTG2, NTG3, NTG4, NTG4+ and NTG5.
Is the furry cover included?
Yes — the DeadWombat furry windshield comes in the box, with a brush and a tail/patch cable.
Does it fit my boom pole?
Yes, if the pole has the standard 3/8" thread, which almost all boom poles do.
Take your shotgun mic outside and keep the wind and handling noise off the recording.
The RODE Blimp wraps your microphone in a windshield and hangs it on a Rycote Lyre suspension, so wind, bumps and hand movement stay out of your audio. Add the furry DeadWombat cover for strong wind.
