Description
The Remote Audio RAINMAN RMANK4 is made of a soft, lightweight batting that does not absorb water or mat up when wet. Instead, the rain drops simply slow down as they flow through and are channeled out the front. The exterior is net material with sturdy stitching and a Velcro closure. The RAINMAN easily slides onto most windscreens, and is secured with Velcro.
PLEASE NOTE: This RAINMAN version, the original RMANK4 raincover, is compatible with the Rycote Windshield Kit 4 (MKH416, MKH 60, CMIT 5U, KMR 81, CS-3e, and other popular mics of similar sizing). The new Rainman RMANK2 is compatible with Rycote’s Windshield Kit 2 (4006, 4017C, MKH20, MKH30, MKH40, MKH50, CMC Series, and other popular mics of similar sizing).
The RAINMAN goes on and off quickly and easily. To install the Rain Man, simply slide it on with the open end at the front of the microphone then close the Velcro slot.
In heavier rain, the RAINMAN may eventually take on water faster than it can channel it through. In this case, it may be a good idea to occasionally remove the RAINMAN and shake or wring the water out. With a little experience you will get a feel for when and how often this should be done. The RAINMAN effectiveness has been proven in actual production environments.
It is recommended that the RAINMAN be used without a furry wind cover. However, for added protection, a stretchy “sock” type cover may be used under the RAINMAN.
