Title: Holding wind shields in positions on mic?
Post by: AndyLGR on June 11, 2014, 05:52:06 AM

Daft question maybe.

With my new CA-11 omnis I have some removeable wind shields. However I'm concerned about inadvertantly knocking them off the mic, does anyone use anything to hold theirs in position for an outdoor show. Maybe with tape or something.?

Small strip of gaffer's tape around the base.  Not duct tape, gaffer's tape, it leaves no residue.

hmm..

but at what cost to the foam?

I'd go for elastic bands myself if you are going to stick with the freebee windshields...

I use elastic bands, too.
