An Effective Home-Made Windscreen for the VX2000 - VX2100:
VX-2000 with a microphone windscreen made of cheap
air-conditioner replacement filter foam, cut into a rectangle
large enough to
fold in half, then folded over the VX-1000/2000
mic from the bottom to the top,
with the sides then folded up and
clipped at the top with a small plastic bag
clip (small hair clips
can also be used). With this in place, the VX-2000 can be used
in
moderate wind without problems. There is little effect on the
sound of the
microphone otherwise, and the windscreen can be
left permanently in place. A
simpler approach, though, is using
an inexpensive Radio Shack windscreen that
is a near-perfect
fit for the VX2000 mic, part number 33-373A
(see: VX2000
Odds and Ends, fourth photo down).
Another option is
using a "fuzzy" mic cover
(See: www.haly-tek.com/cat/fat-cat.html).
