Title: Windscreens for Peluso CEMC6/CK4 mics
Post by: ldseeya on June 10, 2008, 02:46:26 PM

Does anyone know where I can get some windscreens that fit the Peluso mics.  I lookinf for some windscreens for taping in high wind venues like Red Rocks.  Any help would be much appreciative :)

The dpa or big ass shures you find in the yard sale all the time will work just fine.  Any screen for a 19 mm mic will work actually.  For high wind like red rocks I would recommend some dead rats as well.

I have the cheap WindTech 1200's, and they don't begin to cut it alone. With dead rats on top of them, OK.

I used the DPAs this weekend at Wakarusa and got clipping with gusting wind.

Get the big ass Shures or some dead rats.

sorry about that, I had to.  A dead rat is a furry screen cover that you put over your windscreens to cut out the big gusts.  it looks like this:
