Rycote is well-known for their high-quality windshields, blimps, shock mounts, and wind jammers. Their ingenious new line of wind shields, the Cyclone series, has proven to be quite popular. With this new series, they've raised the bar when it comes to enhanced attenuation, user-friendliness, weight, and efficiency. Rycote have developed three types of windshields for the Cyclone series: a Small version which is available with three different types of connectors - XLR, LEMO, or MZL - and a Medium, and Large version as well. Each version can be used in combination with various types of condenser microphones.
The British brand Rycote is known for its high-quality shock mounts and wind shields like the Super-Blimp. This remarkable wind shield is compatible with every microphone from the NTG series by Røde, from the NTG1 to the NTG4+. What's more, it's also suitable for shotgun microphones that are up to 280 mm long and between 19 and 25 mm in diameter which means you can use it with microphones like the DPA 4017B, Neumann KMR81i, Sanken CS-2, Sennheiser MKE 600 and the MKH 416 too.
For some time now, Marantz has been focusing its attention on the pro audio segment, which has led to the development of a few very interesting products like the MPM-500R ribbon microphone. They've also come up with four boom pole stands in their Audio Scope series, the B9, B9C, B11 and the B11C. Some of these boom poles have an integrated XLR cable, which is what the 'C' in their name stands for.
