The Zoom WSU-2 Hairy Windscreen is an essential tool for videographers, field recordists, and podcasters who frequently capture audio in outdoor environments. Designed to eliminate wind noise and atmospheric interference, this accessory ensures your recordings remain crisp and clear regardless of the conditions. While it is highly effective at blocking high-velocity air, users should note that the dense material can slightly attenuate high-frequency response in extremely calm indoor environments.

Yes, it is designed as a universal shotgun microphone windshield and will fit most standard-sized shotgun microphones.
No, this is a 'deadcat' or furry-style windscreen designed specifically for outdoor wind protection, which outperforms foam in high-velocity air.
Gently hand wash with mild soap and water if necessary, then air dry completely. Do not machine wash or dry.
It provides significant reduction, but in extremely high gale-force winds, additional protection may be required.
Yes, the WSU-2 is fully compatible with the Zoom MicTrak M3.
Ensure the drawstring is pulled tight against the microphone body to prevent air gaps where wind can leak through.
Gently shake the windscreen vigorously or use a wide-tooth comb to restore the loft and volume of the faux fur fibers.
To install, slide the open end of the WSU-2 over the capsule of your shotgun microphone. Once positioned correctly, pull the drawstring tight and lock it to prevent slippage during movement. This unit is compatible with the Zoom SGH-6, SSH-6, ZSG-1, and MicTrak M3. For maintenance, keep the windscreen dry; if it becomes damp from rain, air-dry it completely before storing it in a case. To keep the fur from matting, gently shake the windscreen after removing it from your equipment bag to restore its fluff and wind-blocking effectiveness.
