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

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.

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.

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.

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.

Good audio recording when using this microphone to keep other noises that you can avoid Though would of preferred the PRO which is a bit pricey, the audio is still a bit tinny, though better than the inbuilt microphone, the audio can be process with software to give it a bit more bass/treble

Essential for use with a Rode video mic. Not as effective as a cage and DeadCat, but effective in indoor situations and where wind is not excessive, but then nothing works in really poor weather conditions.

This is a very decent quality item for the Rode microphone. My granddaughter was appalled that I had a dead cat posted to her house so that I could collect it!! As a fun talking point alone it was excellent value.

Certainly helps muffle wind and other noises but not the best out there in this price range
