Product Overview
The Shure A89SW-SFT is a Rycote Softie windshield for the VP89S short shotgun condenser microphone and the VP82 microphone, providing 25 dB of wind protection in harsh environments. The one-piece fur-and-foam design is a fast-deploy alternative to a full windshield kit. It suits ENG crews, location sound operators, and AV teams capturing audio outdoors.
Product Description
A Softie windshield combines a foam layer with a synthetic-fur outer in a single slip-on unit, giving crews quick wind protection without assembling a full basket system. The A89SW-SFT delivers 25 dB of wind protection in harsh environments while preserving the high-frequency response of the VP89S and VP82. Developed by Shure with Rycote, it is shaped for these microphones so it mounts securely and maintains intended polar performance. For run-and-gun broadcast, sports, and outdoor event work, the Softie is the practical choice when speed of deployment matters. For maximum protection or boom-mounted handling isolation, compare the complete A89SW-KIT windshield kit; for indoor use, the A89SW foam windscreen is sufficient.
