Topic: Wind Screens for MK4 Caps

[pmonk66]

Recently picked up some MK4 cards over at the yard. I plan on picking up some Rycote INV7 but need some ideas on good wind screens.

Thanks

For indoors I liked the Schoeps B1 (really just for dust/smoke), B5 or DPA UA0896 (for mild HVAC), outdoors the Shure A81WS.  Always dreamed of Rycote Baby Ball Gags, but never pulled the trigger.

Don't listen to Brian, he doesn't know what he's talking about

FWIW i have the B5's for indoors and the shure a81ws for outdoors. i think i need some rats though for added protection from the wind in some venues.

I use the DPAs that were mentioned and would recommend them. The Shures for windy outdoor shows.
