I use this windgag on a Sony ECM 680S microphone and it really cuts out any wind noise or rumble but also allows the high frequencies to be clearly heard. It's a great piece of kit.
The delivery from Thomann was very fast. Great service

Classic and functional!
Aaron Ireland 11.09.2014
When I was in the market for a windshield there's one main company that sticks out... Rycote.

Now this windshield is used by me for recording SFX (spot fx, and ambiences) with a ME66 Sennheiser... So I can't verify that it cuts out 80mph wind blasts at the top of a hill recording an interview but for me it gives clean SFX even in windy conditions.

It is slightly expensive but in my opinion it's a price worth paying; nothing worse than getting back to the studio and realising a great sound effect has been ruined by wind which you mightn't have heard upon recording.

Good wind protection, but harsh on the microphone.
GRM Parallèlle 26.05.2023
I have tested this windshield and it works accordingly to the expectations (I haven't used it in extreme conditions yet).
I am only concerned with one thing: using it with an Sennheiser MKH418S it does not feel like a good fit. It is a little bit harsh on the mic while pulling it in/out. The interior of the product is not soft at all, it's a harsh/hard plastic net, with pointy pieces of plastic all the way trough. As a result this plastic material gets stuck in the microphone grill and I'm afraid it might damage it.
