The Windbubble Miniature Imitation-Fur Windscreen from Bubblebee Industries is a professional-grade, yet straightforward concept in microphone wind-noise suppression. The Windbubbles are miniature windscreens that are directly aimed at wind-noise suppression for lavalier microphones. They consist of a layer of imitation fur with space in between the capsule and material. They are available in 4 different sizes, and this version accommodates microphones with a diameter of 5 to 9mm (0.19 to 0.35"). Examples of compatible microphone models for this windscreen include the Sanken COS-11 (with metal windscreen), Countryman EMW and Sennheiser MKE2 without windshield.

Description
The Bubblebee Windbubbles consist of an outer shell of the finest imitation fur and an inner core of nothing. And this nothing is exactly what makes the bubble so special. The air enters the bubble for a short visit, finds it rather dull, and quickly leaves again without harming the microphone inside.
So instead of the wind hammering on the microphone and making those horrible “I’m in the middle of a hurricane”- sounds, it passes right through.
The Windbubbles are specially constructed to be mounted quickly and easily on the specified types of microphone and to not fall off during use.
The tiny elastic wire legs make it easy to mount the Windbubbles on the Lavalier microphones

Size Guide
The Windbubbles will give you the best wind protection you can get for you lavalier mic. Whatever the make, shape or size of it, we have made a furry Windbubble to fit, just waiting to keep the wind out and the clean, clear sound frequencies in.
There are four sizes, with the internal 'Bubble of dead air', opening and length of fur increasing progressively with each step. If your mic fits in more than one, for example the DPA 4060 which fits with both sizes 2 and 3, you will achieve greater wind resistance with size 3 because of the longer fur, though will in turn compromise a little on visibility.
