Description

The Mini-ALTO 280 Blimp Windshield Add-On Kit - Grey is a compact and highly effective wind protection solution designed for professional audio recording applications. Engineered to work with existing RAD-2 and RAD-3 shock mounts, this add-on kit transforms a compatible microphone setup into a complete windshield system without adding unnecessary bulk or weight. Its lightweight design makes it an excellent choice for location sound professionals, filmmakers, broadcasters, and content creators who require reliable wind protection while maintaining a streamlined recording rig.

At the center of the system is an innovative two-piece magnetic windshield pod that allows for quick installation and easy microphone access. The included grey fur windcover provides an additional layer of protection against challenging outdoor conditions, helping to reduce wind noise while preserving natural audio quality. A Smiley Face Adaptor securely connects the windshield to compatible RAD shock mounts, while the magnetic windshield stowage holder and carabiner clip offer a convenient way to store or transport the windshield when not in use.

Despite its remarkably compact size, the Mini-ALTO 280 delivers performance comparable to much larger windshield systems, making it a practical choice for professionals seeking maximum portability without sacrificing effectiveness. Designed to accommodate a range of short shotgun microphones, it provides dependable wind protection for field recording, film production, broadcast work, and other demanding audio capture environments.
