Handy hints

Softies are very efficient at reducing wind-noise. If the reduction is less than you would expect try this quick check. Fit the Softie (making sure you cover all the capsule slots), power the microphone and listen to it through headphones. Now blow gently over the length of its body. You may find that holes for switches and indicators - even the XLR connector - let wind inside the microphone. If so use foam or tape to cover these leaks.
