Essential Wind Protection
The K-Tek Topper Windscreen is a high-grade synthetic fur cover built for the DR-40 PCM Digital Recorder and compatible handheld ball microphones. It shields the device from wind and external elements that degrade recording clarity. Audio professionals gain a reliable barrier for clean capture in unpredictable outdoor conditions.
Noise Reduction Performance
The short hair fur construction significantly reduces wind noise during operation without electronic processing. It also minimises handling sounds caused by moving the recorder, creating a more stable acoustic environment. This passive approach preserves the natural character of the source material in both field and studio settings.
Fit and Material Benefits
The snug, model-specific fit ensures the windscreen stays secure on the DR-40 during active use. Durable faux fur withstands repeated deployment while maintaining its noise-dampening properties. Users receive a single accessory that solves wind interference and handling noise without requiring power or software configuration.

Questions about this item
How do I fit the Topper on a DR-40 recorder without it slipping off?
Stretch the elastic opening over the recorder's built-in microphone capsule until the fur sits flush against the body; the tight elastic band grips the chassis so the windscreen cannot slide loose during handling.
Does the synthetic fur need cleaning or replacement after extended outdoor use?
The high-grade faux fur can be brushed gently to remove dust and debris; if fibres become matted or shed, the windscreen should be replaced to maintain wind-noise reduction.
At what wind speed does the Topper stop reducing noise effectively?
The short-hair fur is designed for moderate breezes typical of field recording; in sustained high winds the material reaches its acoustic limit and wind rumble will become audible.
