Audio-Technica AT8178 — Foam windscreen for 20 Series microphones
19.00
Tax included
Foam windscreen for the AT2020, AT2035, AT2050 and AT2020USB-X family. Tames plosives and wind noise without blocking the controls.
The AT8178 is the foam windscreen Audio-Technica makes for its 20 Series condenser microphones. It slides over the grille and tames the plosive bursts that land on the capsule on p, b and t sounds during close vocal work, and it also cuts the wind noise picked up outdoors or under a ceiling fan.
Because it is moulded to the shape of the microphone, it stays in place without tape or clamps and leaves both the control switches and the connector accessible, so it can stay mounted between takes. The foam also keeps dust and saliva away from the diaphragm, which extends the life of a part that is neither cheap nor quick to replace.
It is supplied in black and fits the AT2020, AT2035, AT2050, AT2020USB-X, AT2020USB-XP and AT2020USB+. A small accessory that solves two very common recording problems at once, and one worth keeping a spare of.
