Purpose and fit
The DeadCat VMP is a furry wind cover made for the VideoMic Pro, intended for recording in windy conditions. Its artificial fur reduces wind noise while staying acoustically transparent. It fits VideoMic Pro models that use rubber-band suspension and were produced before May 2015.
Upgrade context
This cover replaces the standard foam windshield when outdoor wind makes it ineffective. The jump is worth it for field recording, interviews or documentary work where gusts would otherwise ruin the take. It adds only 13.00 gm and measures 150.00mmH x 95.00mmW x 30.00mmD.
Compatibility check
Verify that your VideoMic Pro uses the rubber-band mount rather than the Rycote Lyre system introduced after May 2015. The Lyre version requires the DeadCat VMPR instead. No other microphone models are supported by this cover.

Questions about this item
Will the DeadCat VMP fit on my VideoMic Pro rubber-band model?
Yes, this cover is designed for VideoMic Pro rubber-band models manufactured before May 2015 and slides over the microphone body.
How do I attach the DeadCat VMP to the VideoMic Pro correctly?
Slide the open end over the microphone capsule until the fur fully encloses the grille; do not stretch the elastic band over the shock mount as that blocks the rubber bands.
How should I clean the artificial fur if it gets dirty during outdoor use?
Gently brush the fur with a soft brush or use low-pressure compressed air; avoid liquids or washing machines as they can mat the fibres and reduce acoustic transparency.
