Q: 1. Wanting to know how well this mic "ignores" side noise. We do a lot of quick interviews in bars and brewery taprooms and our Audio-Technica AT875R attached to a Canon XA10 picks up a ton of noise off to the sides of of the mic and camera. Need something that mostly picks up what in front of it. Hoping this mic does?

A: There’s a good video on YouTube demonstrating the 875r, 897 and MKH60 and the 897 seemed to have the best off-axis rejection. https://youtu.be/XyGZA9FQudU

Q: 2. Does the deadcat go on over the foam or the foam is taken off and replaces the foam?

A: You would take off the foam, and replace it with this windjammer.

Q: 3. Will the included XLR to 3.5mm TRS adapter cable allow me to connect this microphone to the Tentacle Sync-E audio recorder?

A: No. The included Sennheiser KA 600 XLR Female to 1/8" TRS Male Connection Cable will not connect directly to the locking input on the Tentacle Sync TRACK E Pocket Audio Recorder because the cable has a non-locking 1/8" (3.5mm) connector. As a better option, you can use the Remote Audio 3-Pin XLR Female to 3.5mm TRS Locking Adapter Cable for Sennheiser G2 Transmitter - 2' (B&H # RECASEK100L) which will connect properly to the recorder's locking input. Or if you do want to use the KA 600 Cable, you can adapt it by adding on the Hosa Technology GMM303 3.5mm Female Stereo Mini to 3.5mm Female Stereo Mini Adapter (B&H # HOASMFSMF) and attaching the Sennheiser CL1 3.5mm to 3.5mm Output Cable for EW Series Camera-Mount Receiver (B&H # SECL1), which has the proper size locking connector.

Q: 4. Will this work with MKH 416..

A: The length of the Rycote Super-Blimp NTG5 Windshield Kit for Rode NTG5 Microphone may be a bit too short to support and house the Sennheiser MKH 416-P48U3 Moisture-Resistant Shotgun Microphone. A more compatible version for use with the 416 would be the Rycote Super-Blimp Kit for Rode NTG & Shotgun Mics (11" Length, 0.7-0.9" Diameter)(BH #RYWKNTG): https://bhpho.to/3zVeRof

Q: 5. Would this fit the audio technica at4053b?

A: The Rycote Super-Blimp NTG5 Windshield Kit for Rode NTG5 Microphone's mounting suspension could probably be stretched to accommodate the diameter of the Audio-Technica AT4053b Hypercardioid Condenser Microphone, but this would not be an ideal pairing. A more optimal pairing for the AT4053b would be the Rycote Super-Shield Kit for Shotgun Mics (Small) (BH #RYSSKS): https://bhpho.to/3lNAIp5

Q: 6. Does the mke 600 support plugin power?

A: The Sennheiser MKE 600 Shotgun Microphone can be powered with a single AA battery or with 48V of phantom power, which is a much higher amount of voltage than plug-in power. Phantom power is delivered through an XLR mic input while plug-in power is typically 1 to 10V and it is delivered through a 3.5mm mic input. The MKE 600 will not work with plug-in power from a 3.5mm mic input, but will work with phantom power from an XLR mic input.

Q: 7. Would this fit the Rode NTG4+?

A: No, the Rycote Super-Blimp NTG5 Windshield Kit is the wrong size. You will want to use the Rycote Super-Blimp Kit for Rode NTG & Shotgun Mics - 11" Length, 0.7-0.9" Diameter (B&H # RYWKNTG) which is intended for use with Rode NTG1, NTG2, NTG3, NTG4, and NTG4+ model microphones.

Q: 8. Does this work with the mke 600 sennheiser? And does it come with a dead cat or is it a simple sleeve over the blimp itself?

A: That will fit the MKE 600. It is a complete blimp system with a suspension, the blimp, a handle, a short XLR cable that connects to the inside, and a boom pole adapter.

Q: 9. Would this shock mount fit the Oktava MK 012? Looking for a solution that will work with both of my primary mics.

A: While the Rycote Super-Blimp NTG5 Windshield Kit for Rode NTG5 Microphone is designed for a 19mm diameter microphone such as the Rode NTG5, its lyres may stretch to accommodate a 23mm diameter microphone such as the Oktava MK-012-01.

Q: 10. Will this be compatible with the Deity S-Mic2? I can see that the mic diameter is compatible however I'm worried with its length. How about the S-Mic2 S?

A: The Diety S-Mic 2 would be too long for this blimp, but the Diety S-Mic 2S would be compatible. I would recommend the Rycote Windshield Kit for Sennheiser MKH416 & Other Select Shotgun Microphones, BH #RYWMKH416 for the Diety S-Mic 2.
