I just wanted to put in writting my appreciation for everything your company has done for me recently. The replacement for my 664 mixer arrived today and is working perfectly. Please pass on my thanks to Matt for his patience, expert help and the guidance he has provided despite me phoning, in a panic, from various locations around the world. Thanks to you all for going beyond the call of duty, the level of service has been absolutely fantastic!

How it Works Diagram
AIR1 provides two consistent layers of wind protection
The first layer of protection is a newly-designed acoustic fur. By fine tuning hair-length, hair material, fur density and the inner lining, the fur achieves great wind rejection while maintaining outstanding acoustic transparency. AIR1 achieves this while at the same time reducing the visual impact of the windscreen by using fur length that is up to 30% shorter than other marketed wind protection accessories.
The second layer of protection is the air cavity created in front of the microphone. AIR1 uses two sturdy arches to keep the fur spaced away from the microphone and maintain constant air volume. In addition, there is a mic stop to ensure that the microphone holds its position at the most protected point inside the windscreen – the acoustic sweet spot.
