The RØDE WS6 Deluxe Windshield is designed for videographers and audio professionals seeking to minimize wind noise during outdoor or challenging recording conditions. Its key benefit is providing superior wind protection while maintaining acoustic transparency, ensuring clear audio capture. A potential caveat is its specific compatibility requirements for shotgun microphones. This windshield combines an open-cell foam surround with an outer layer of artificial fur, featuring a rubber base to prevent rear noise entry.

The WS6 is compatible with RØDE NTG1, NTG2, NTG4, and NTG4+ microphones, as well as any other shotgun microphone with a maximum slot length of 160.5mm (6 1/4 inches) and a diameter of 21-22.5mm.
The WS6 provides excellent reduction for light to moderate winds. For very strong or gusty winds, additional wind protection might be beneficial, but it significantly improves audio quality in most outdoor conditions.
You can clean the WS6 by gently wiping the foam and fur with a slightly damp cloth. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching it to your microphone.
The RØDE WS6 Deluxe Windshield comes with a 1-year manufacturer's warranty.
The WS6 is designed with acoustically transparent materials, minimizing any negative impact on sound quality while providing significant wind noise reduction.
The dimensions are approximately 100.00mm (Height) x 100.00mm (Width) x 185.00mm (Length).
While primarily designed for wind noise reduction outdoors, it can also help dampen general room noise or air conditioning sounds if placed strategically, though this is not its main purpose.
Ensure the windshield is fully seated and the rubber base seal is making firm contact with the microphone body. Verify compatibility specifications. For very high winds, consider additional wind protection solutions.
Check if your microphone's slot length and diameter fall within the specified compatibility range (max slot length 160.5mm, diameter 21-22.5mm). Ensure you are using a compatible RØDE model.
Gently brush the fur with a soft brush or comb. If dirty, lightly dampen a cloth and wipe gently, then allow to air dry completely.
Setup:
The WS6 is designed for easy attachment. Simply slide it onto compatible shotgun microphones, ensuring a snug fit. The integrated design means no separate parts are needed for assembly.
