The MICOLIVE-PRO is a lightweight shotgun microphone windshield system designed for improved wind rejection and clearer outdoor recording. Its redesigned diamond acoustic mesh shell helps diffuse airflow more evenly around the microphone, reducing wind turbulence and handling noise without compromising high-frequency detail.
Built for field use, it combines a rigid yet lightweight housing with improved internal airflow management and a stabilised suspension structure. The result is a more controlled recording environment for boom operators working in demanding conditions.
Who this is for
Ideal for sound recordists, boom operators, documentary crews, and content creators who need reliable wind protection and stable microphone support for outdoor and location recording.

How it works / component breakdown
The system uses a diamond-pattern acoustic mesh shell to break up and disperse wind pressure before it reaches the microphone capsule. This helps maintain clarity while reducing low-frequency rumble caused by wind.
Inside, a reinforced suspension bracket holds the microphone securely, reducing vibration and movement transmission. A 120mm adjustable rail allows precise positioning so the mic can be balanced correctly for different setups.
The upgraded Dead Wombat fur cover adds an additional layer of wind protection, reducing turbulence in harsher outdoor environments.
Why choose this product
The combination of airflow diffusion, internal suspension stability, and lightweight construction makes this system suitable for long boom sessions where operator fatigue and noise control are critical. Quick-release domes also make setup and maintenance faster on set, reducing downtime between takes.
Ideal uses
- Film and TV production sound recording
- Outdoor interviews and documentaries
- ENG (electronic news gathering) setups
- Run-and-gun content production
- Windy or unpredictable outdoor environments
