The Rycote OM-08 is an omnidirectional pencil condenser microphone designed for a range of applications in studio and field recording.
The OM-08 microphones provide solid low frequency response with virtually no drop off at 20Hz. The mics are built on Rycote’s low self-noise preamp design and capsules which offer a consistent sonic signature that mixes well when cut together with other Rycote microphones in the range. The OM-08 mics can be used individually or in matched stereo pairs.
The Rycote HC-35 is a hypercardioid, long shotgun microphone, designed for specific applications such as sport broadcast and location recording where wide-angle shots and loud noises’ rejection are vital to clean sound.The HC-35 produces a highly directional polar thanks to its longer interference tube than its siblings, the HC-15 and HC-22, providing better o-axis rejection. It is also remarkably light compared to other solutions allowing an easier job for targeting sound sources when mounting it on windshields or classic softie slip-on protection.
The Rycote BD-10 is a Bidirectional (Figure of 8) condenser Microphone designed mainly for M/S stereo and ambient recording as well as dual dialogue. Perfect for use with the SC-08, CA-08 or HC-15 for a complete Rycote M/S Stereo or DM/S stereo solutions. Based around our signature low self-noise capsule it delivers the precision and quality that our range of microphones has become renowned for. Used in MS or DMS (Double MS) for doc-style or corporate content in combination with directional mic. Ideal to pick dialogue and ambience with mono sources and avoiding setup change on top of some control over the stereo image.Can be also used for stereo sound design or field recording.
The PCS-Boom Connector is an incredibly convenient and efficient way to simplify and speed-up the fitting and removal of any accessory to a 3/8″ male threaded boom pole. And, importantly, it provides a completely secure and silent connection during use!
Rycote's Mic Flags are made from durable shatterproof moulded plastic and avoid the use of perishable foam inserts to make the flags fit the microphone. Instead, an array of internally fitted hard-wearing red and black rubber 'vanes' secures the flag around the microphone, allowing Rycote’s Mic Flags to be used with any microphones ranging from 19 to 38mm in diameter.
Fits A Wide Range Of Microphones With all of the black and red ‘vanes’ fitted, the Rycote mic flag will securely hold microphones from 19 to 32mm wide. To fit the flags to mics of up to 38mm in diameter, users simply remove the lid of the mic flag and slide out the black vanes, creating a looser fit which allows the broader mics to slide onto the flag.
Lightweight But Tough Lightweight and extremely hard-wearing, Rycote's Mic Flags provide a large printable area for sponsors' logos. Three- and four-sided flags are available, in either black or white; the square type offers a printable logo area 57mm wide by 48mm high on each of its four sides, while the printable area of the three sides on the triangular flag measure 89.5mm wide by 48mm.
