Neumann WNS100

The Neumann WNS 100 is a professional foam windscreen designed for Neumann Series 100, Series 180, KM A, and KM D microphones. Made from special open-cell polyurethane foam, it effectively reduces wind noise, handling disturbances, and close-range recording artifacts while preserving the microphone’s natural sound and directional characteristics. Available in multiple colors, the WNS 100 provides reliable wind protection with minimal impact on high-frequency response.

The Neumann WNS 100 foam windscreen is a high-quality microphone accessory engineered to provide effective protection against unwanted wind noise and handling disturbances in professional recording environments. Specifically designed for Neumann Series 100, Series 180, KM A, and KM D microphones, the WNS 100 helps maintain clean and intelligible recordings during indoor and outdoor applications.

Constructed from specially developed open-cell polyurethane foam, the windscreen significantly reduces noise caused by wind, rapid microphone boom movements, and close-miking techniques without introducing unwanted resonances or altering the microphone's directional response. This ensures that the microphone retains its natural tonal balance and precise pickup characteristics.

The WNS 100 provides approximately 18 dB of wind noise attenuation when tested at a wind speed of 20 km/h without electrical filtering. Despite its effective noise reduction capabilities, it introduces only minimal attenuation at higher frequencies, reducing signal levels by approximately 2 dB at 15 kHz. This allows recordings to remain clear, detailed, and natural sounding.

Available in a range of colors including black, red, green, yellow, blue, and white, the WNS 100 is ideal for color-coding microphones in studio, broadcast, live sound, and field recording applications.
