Rycote 14cm Softie Kit
The Rycote 033342 kit pairs a 14cm short-hair windshield with a pistol-grip handle and InVision Lyre suspension cradles for outdoor field recording. It fits most shotgun microphones and includes a Mogami cable with Neutrik connectors for immediate use.
Capacity and headroom
The 19 to 22mm diameter softie slides over standard shotgun barrels and the Lyre cradle isolates handling vibration during boom or handheld work. Wind noise is reduced in typical ENG conditions, but extreme gusts or sustained high-wind environments will exceed the short-hair cover's rejection ability.
Practical limits of the standard interface
The kit mounts to any boom pole or stand using the industry-standard 3/8 inch thread on the pistol grip. No power, digital protocol or proprietary connector is involved, so compatibility depends only on the microphone's physical diameter and the operator's mechanical setup.
Highlights
- Clear outdoor audio with 14 cm windshield
- Stable handling via Lyre suspension cradles

Questions about this item
Will the 14 cm Softie fit the 19–22 mm shotgun microphone I already own?
The Softie’s standard hole covers 19–22 mm diameters, so it will accommodate most shotgun microphones in that range.
How can I verify the Lyre suspension is isolating handling noise after I mount the kit?
Tap the pistol grip lightly while monitoring through headphones; the InVision Lyre cradles should suppress the mechanical thump almost entirely.
Does the box include the Mogami cable with Neutrik connectors, or must I buy it separately?
The kit ships with a premium Mogami / Neutrik cable included, so no separate cable purchase is required.
