Neumann WS 49
The Neumann WS 49 is a premium foam windshield designed specifically for Neumann large-diaphragm microphones such as the Neumann M 49 V and other compatible models. It provides effective protection against wind noise, breath sounds, and plosives without altering the microphone’s frequency response or tonal character — ensuring clean and natural recordings in any environment.
Made from acoustically transparent, high-density foam, the WS 49 minimizes unwanted air turbulence while preserving the clarity and precision of Neumann’s renowned sound quality.
