The RØDE Blimp is a complete windshield and shock mount for NTG1, NTG2, NTG3, NTG4 and NTG4+ microphones, as well as third-party shotgun microphones up to 325mm long. With the Rycote Lyre vibration isolation system, the Blimp offers superior stability and isolation. Made from a single piece of tough thermoplastic, the Lyre provides high-quality acoustic isolation and, unlike traditional elastic suspensions, will never wear out, sag or break.
The Blimp handle has been completely redesigned, noticeably reducing weight while improving ergonomics. Inside the handle is a rugged Mogami cable that splits via a junction box into a thin flexible cable inside the Blimp to reduce vibration transfer to the microphone. With the lighter handle and new acoustic isolation design, the new Blimp is over 25% lighter (550 grams without microphone or DeadWombat). The Blimp attaches to any standard boom pole thanks to the 3/8" thread in its base. The Universal Blimp Mount is sold separately so you can remove the Blimp handle when using it on a boom pole. A Dead Wombat windshield, maintenance brush and tail cable are included.
*The warranty does not cover wear and tear to the Dead Wombat windshield from use, or mishandling, modification, incorrect storage or incorrect transport of the Blimp.
