RØDE DeadCat GO Windshield for VideoMic GO Artificial Fur Wind Shield Furry Cover

Use this with a Rode NTG3 and a Rode carbon fibre boom pole, single shooting with the boom attached to a Boom Buddy. Indoors I dispense with the blimp and just use the pistol grip with a foam cover to get the weight down a bit. Outdoors this really does come into it's own, with perfect wind reduction using the supplied dead wombat. An adjustment tool is included along with a folding brush to touch the dead wombat up a bit - you need it to have the hairs standing up, which is a bit counter intuitive to brushing your hair. Well, for me at least :)

Not sure what people expect but for outside in light breeze situations it works fine. Fits well on the older Rode Video Pro mic. I can hear me breathing behind the mic when in use but didn't get any rumble noise from a constant 7 to 10 mph wind without using the high pass filter in a wide open space. If you need more wind protection then you should consider a proper gun mic with caged wind shield and isolation. It does fit well but make sure the dead cat goes under the mic as far as you can pull it along the isolation mount. It is tough to do and needs adjusting around the foam for a good fit. I can also get to the on off switch and gain switches without undoing the Velcro. Fiddly but do-able.

This is a really good deadcat and fits perfectly (when it's on) on the Røde Go microphone. Ive used this a few times now and in windy conditions and while it helps a great deal, dont expect it to remove all wind sound in high winds. That being said, so far the wind noise in video has not been bad enough to ruin the shots. Only criticism is the foam layer inside bunches up if you put it straight onto Mic so have to stretch it out a bit first.

Great little piece of kid, helps to keep that crisp audio and reduce wind! amazing for what we need it for :)

This helps an absolute ton in reducing background noise on the GO mic. Whereas before I would have to spend a fair bit of time in Adobe Audition editing out that annoying and very noticeable hiss which comes through on a DSLR and GO combination - often resulting in reduced quality audio - with the deadcat on the hiss is almost impossible to hear (especially if you put music in your video) and disappears completely with some simple noise reduction in Audition. I could probably tweak my settings to pretty much get rid of any hiss, but for an easy and simple way to reduce noise, this deadcat is absolutely essential.

The Røde go mic is very great for indoor use, however, the Røde mic is very unsuited for recording outside due to the slighest bit of wind. But the Røde Go Deadcat wind muff fixes this issue greatly. The item is of high quality and build and basically says what it does on the box. My only niggle is I think this muff should be able to be bought in a bundle with the mic itself, but this is not really a problem. If the price may put you off, the product is defiantly worth the money as you are limiting the capabilitys of your mic without it.

Not much to say, fits well but I wouldn't necessarily recommend removing it every time you shoot indoors, just leave it on or you'll potentially cause wear to the microphone's foam as it's a fairly tight fit. In addition to wanting a deadcat for outdoor work I partly bought this as it gives a professional look to my camera setup and means I can throw the microphone into my bag without worrying about things crushing or damaging the foam which can happen if stored improperly for prolonged periods. It also gives piece of mind that you won't get any wind noise if you move the microphone quickly or people move around the microphone suddenly which could cause some noise. Definitely recommend you buy one of these when you buy your video mic pro.

i have been using for few years now, and i m very happy with my purchase, it works perfectly with the rode mic, sound quality is great when weather is not good, by not good i mean usual light windy days when usually the camera mic will pick up some hissing and wind noises, didn't really try it in challenging weather situations.
