Rycote Single Pod Basket Half for Nano Shield Kit (Size D)

When you need to replace a basket or expand your Nano Shield Kit, look no further than the Single Pod Basket Half from Rycote. This 8.8", size D basket half can be combined with any other size Nano Shield basket half for custom combinations that can accommodate nearly any shotgun or small-diaphragm condenser microphone.

Lightweight and durable, these basket halves are constructed from semi-rigid synthetic materials that mix flexibility with strength and can be easily attached or detached with a simple push or pull thanks to the magnetic locking mechanism and extra-secure manual locking sliders. Layers of extra wind shielding can be added or removed as needed, meeting the needs of any indoor or outdoor shoot.

Mix-n-Match Basket Design

The Nano Shield kits use a unique magnetic locking basket design, which can be configured to fit various microphone sizes by simply swapping out basket halves. Each size of basket half can interlock with any other size. They also have two manual locking sliders to hold everything secure and noise free. Quickly and easily access mics by simply pulling the halves apart.
