Intended for quick mounting on round, omnidirectional headsets and lavalier microphones between 2.5mm and 5.8mm, DPA Microphones’ new AIR1 universal miniature fur windscreen is designed for challenging outdoor environments.

The microphone specialist claims its patent-pending design guarantees efficient and consistent wind protection with unrivalled acoustic transparency in its bid to solves all wind-related challenges when using a miniature microphone during outdoor performances.

DPA debuts AIR1 windscreen

Pom pom: Two sizing options are available to fit most professional miniature microphones

The AIR1’s design rejects wind noise through two consistent layers of wind protection. The first is its newly designed acoustic fur. Hair length, material and density, as well as the inner lining, have all been fine-tuned, and with fur length that is 30% shorter than other wind protection accessories, the AIR1 also reduces the visual impact of using a windscreen.

The second layer of protection is the air cavity that surrounds the microphone to keep the fur spaced away from the capsule and maintain constant air volume. This is achieved using two sturdy arches as well as a mic stop, which ensures that the microphone’s position in the coveted ‘acoustic sweet spot’ is most protected.
