Schoeps B 5 D Hollow Foam Wind and Pop Shield

The Schoeps B 5 D is a hollow foam windscreen for 20 mm microphones and the most popular pop shield Schoeps makes.

The foam forms a pocket of air around the capsule and sits on a plastic carrier that clamps onto the microphone, so it never touches the capsule and adds no handling noise. It handles close speech, mild wind, and boom movement with little effect on the sound. At a wind speed of 5 m/s it cuts wind noise by 35 dB(A) on a supercardioid and 32 dB(A) on an omni. When fitting it, push the microphone in as far as it goes.

It fits every axially addressed Schoeps microphone, such as Colette capsules on the CMC 1 U and CMC 6 and the CCM 41, and suits conference use as well as booming. It comes in gray or chroma green.
