Neumann WS 89 Foam Windscreen for U 89 i & TLM 193 Microphones

Neumann WS 89 Foam Windscreen for U 89, TLM 193, and TLM 170 Series Microphones

The Neumann WS 89 is a genuine foam windscreen designed to provide reliable protection against wind noise, breath noise, and plosive sounds for compatible Neumann large-diaphragm condenser microphones. Manufactured from acoustically optimized open-cell polyurethane foam, the WS 89 helps maintain natural sound reproduction while reducing unwanted environmental noise, making it an essential accessory for studio recording, broadcasting, podcasting, voice-over production, film, television, and location recording.

Designed specifically for the Neumann U 89, TLM 193, and TLM 170 series microphones, the WS 89 offers an accurate fit that preserves the microphone's directional characteristics while delivering effective wind attenuation. Its lightweight construction makes installation quick and simple without compromising microphone performance.

Professional Wind and Pop Noise Reduction

Wind turbulence, close-range speech, and rapid microphone movements can introduce unwanted low-frequency rumble and plosive noise into recordings. The WS 89 minimizes these disturbances, allowing engineers, broadcasters, and content creators to capture cleaner, more intelligible audio while preserving the microphone's natural tonal balance.

The acoustically transparent foam material is engineered to avoid unwanted resonances and has only minimal influence on high-frequency response, making it suitable for critical recording applications both indoors and outdoors.
