Rycote Audio Kit - Black

The kit is specifically designed for the Sony PCM-D100. While the shock mount and handle are more broadly compatible with cameras, the Windjammer and internal shock absorption are optimized for the PCM-D100's form factor.

The Mini Windjammer is constructed with Rycote's professional-grade synthetic fur, offering excellent performance in reducing wind noise, even in moderately windy conditions. For extreme winds, additional measures might be considered.

Yes, the 3/8" hot shoe adapter allows you to mount the kit onto standard microphone stands or boom poles that feature a 3/8" thread.

Gently brush the fur with a soft brush to remove loose debris. Avoid washing or using harsh cleaning agents, as this can damage the material and affect its acoustic properties.

Lyre technology is a patented shock-mounting system that uses a durable, flexible material to suspend the microphone or recorder, isolating it from vibrations and handling noise without the use of elastic bands.

The kit primarily protects against wind noise and vibrations. It does not offer significant protection against rain. It's recommended to use additional weather protection for the recorder and kit in wet conditions.

Ensure the recorder is correctly aligned and fully seated within the shock mount's cradles. Check for any obstructions.

Verify the Mini Windjammer is fully covering the microphone area and is securely attached. Ensure there are no gaps.

Confirm the shock mount's Lyre technology is functioning correctly and not obstructed. Try using the soft grip handle for better isolation.

Tighten the 3/8" hot shoe adapter securely to the desired mounting point. Ensure the camera's hot shoe is clean.
