The Super-Softie® retains the excellent wind noise reduction of a conventional cavity windshield but allies it to a novel aerodynamic shape and surface structure, and to a new material - 3D-Tex™ - which combines excellent acoustic transparency with superb attenuation of wind noise. It has no rigid internal structure, so causes virtually no polar pattern distortion and is extremely robust in challenging environments such as news-gathering.
If it becomes rain-soaked it can be squeezed out and shaken dry very quickly; if it becomes coated with dust it can be rinsed quickly without affecting its performance.
The shape & structure of the Super Softie® allow it to reduce wind noise at extreme LF and infrasonic frequencies - where the greatest wind energy lies - more efficiently than previous designs. |

Main BenefitsNovel shape and 3D-Tex give greatly improved wind noise reduction compared to conventional “soft" windshields.
A true cavity design, with superb performance at extreme low frequencies (where wind noise is worst).
A rough-service windshield, robust enough for the most challenging news-gathering situations.
High immunity to rain-soaking, and maintains excellent acoustic transparency in almost all situations.

 Suitable for shotgun microphones from 19-34 mm in diameter.
The InVision Softie Lyre Mount uses the Lyre system to provide complete isolation against handling and cable-borne noises. The Mount is supplied either with a lightweight Pistol-grip handle. Together the suspensions and the handle provides a quick, simple, robust and cost effective shock-mount for the tough environment of modern day ENG and location recording.
This universal shock-mount has a soft-feel grip moulded into the clip which securely holds the microphone, preventing any slipping or twisting. The Lyre are extremely robust, and virtually unbreakable, as they do not use elastic or rubber components that are prone to wear and tear.
The Pistol-grip has an added element of versatility having a 3/8" thread fitting for use with a boom pole. For customers who require an on-camera mount, by either hot shoe or ¼” thread, please see our InVision Video range which uses an identical Lyre mount.

The Rycote Tac!T (pronounced "Tas-It") filter is an in-line, active "third-order" (18dB/octave) filter with a "knee" at approximately 60Hz. This enables it to pass, unaffected, virtually all of the desired audio, while massively reducing wind and handling noise, and floor transmitted vibrations. The energy in these extreme low frequency and infrasonic sounds can be very high, and if not attenuated, would otherwise cause overloads and disturbances across the entire audio spectrum.
The Tac!T filter draws its power from the P48 phantom supply while also passing power on to the microphone. It is electronically symmetrical and does not disturb the intrinsic balance of the microphone circuit, nor does it introduce any signal loss for normal programme frequencies.
