Shure RK412WS MX412/MX418 Microphone Windscreen, 4-Pack

In conference rooms, houses of worship, and broadcast lecterns, the Shure MX-series gooseneck microphones sit close to talkers who aren't trained vocal performers — which means plosive bursts and breath turbulence are a consistent signal-chain problem. The RK412WS windscreen addresses that problem at the capsule, where it matters most, before plosive energy ever reaches the preamp. For live sound engineers and AV installers running speech reinforcement systems, keeping those transient artifacts out of the mix means fewer corrective EQ moves and less post-processing in recorded applications.

The snap-fit design is the operational detail that matters in a working install. Unlike slip-on windscreens that migrate during use, the RK412WS seats positively on compatible MX-series capsule heads and stays there through routine handling and repositioning. The foam density strikes the right balance for spoken-word applications — attenuating plosive energy and light airflow turbulence without introducing the dull, lifeless quality that overly dense foams can impart to consonant clarity. Sold in a four-pack, they're a practical consumable stocking item for any facility running MX405, MX410, MX415, MX412, or MX418 microphones.
