The S-series is a wholly new design - new suspension concept, new materials, new windshield construction - and retains all the renowned Rycote features of flexibility, balance and professional performance.
It is lightweight with a minimum of parts, tough enough to withstand the rigours of ENG and simple to use straight out of the box - with the XLR cable supplied.
Includes cable fitted with Neutrik NC3 (XLR-style) connectors.
S-series Suspension
- One-piece web suspension elements - no rubbers or elastics
- Patented design gives ideal isolation for all axial microphones
- Unaffected by temperature and all-but unbreakable
- Suitable for microphones 19mm (¾”) to 25mm (1”) in shaft diameter
- Snap-in webs with six positions for perfect balance and fit
- Matched, high-flexibility microphone cable with twin clamps
- Pinch-release fittings for webs and cable clamps for quick and easy repositioning
Structure
- Steel spine for core strength and rigidity
- Central chassis ring secures windshield pods and allows fast access to the microphone
- Chassis ring can be demounted when only a suspension is required
S-series windshield (windscreen)
- The windshield (windscreen) uses pairs of “Pods” which twist-lock to the chassis ring
- All pods are 100mm (4”) diameter but come in three different lengths (see sizes below)
- Four kit sizes combine the Pods to house microphones from <200mm (8”) to a maximum of 410mm (16”)
- The acoustic fur covering (30mm staple) is integral and can give >30dB windnoise suppression (100-500Hz)
Cable/Connectors Specification
- Balanced microphone twin with ultra-fine stranded copper cores (18 x 0.1mm) and a helical screen
- 3mm soft PVC jacket for high flexibility even at low temperatures
- 3-pin Neutrik NC3 (XLR-style) connectors with gold-finished pins
- For microphones with 5-pin XLR outputs the S-series cable will not fit. At this time we do not provide a 5-pin XLR cable option.
