Topic: Windscreens

[hhf32]

I'm looking to pick up a pair of windscreens. If I only get one pair of windscreens would I be ok with the big DPA's for all around use. Most of my taping is done indoors but I want the option of going outdoors with them. Would the big DPA's be ok for indoor use too, without affecting the sound to much??

I have the Oktava Mc-012's.

I remember seeing the pics of those "dead rats", did'nt you make them yourself?

[hhf32]

I might try this set up, with the smaller DPA's, thanks.
I'm still curious if the bigger ones would affect the sound much indoors?? If anyone runs these indoors I'd like to see what they think.

how does one make a dead rat with a sock?  what materials are necessary for this kind of setup?

thanks

[georgedk]

thanks, judging by your photo you're somewhere in LA.

Radio Shack actually carries a bunch of pretty cheap ones.   I've used those once in a while if in a crunch of I've forgotten mine.   They also come in handy in the outdoor season...if someone forgets theirs.

Maybe $5 per

the bigger dpa screens will be fine indoors

Thanks for all the replies and input. I'll probably just go with the bigger DPA's to cover all the bases.

they have multi color packs at radioshack...i think i might get some cuz i can't afford the dpa ones and will only need them for broo anyway.

the ratshacks won't really hold up in a real wind. I might have some you can use for b-roo...

You looking for ones for the Superlux's?   Let me know how any of those workout because I too thinking I need some for mine other than the crappy ones that were included for outdoor use.   I am only probably going to be taping only a couple of outdoor shows so really don't want to spend a ton of money either.
