sE Electronics WS12, Windscreen for VR1 & VR2 Ribbon Mics – microphone reflection filter

The sE Electronics WS12 is a dedicated external foam windscreen designed for use with the VR1 and VR2 ribbon microphones.

Ribbon microphones are particularly susceptible to air movement, making wind protection essential in many recording environments and for live performances. The WS12 helps to reduce wind noise, plosives, and sudden air pressure changes that can compromise recordings—or even endanger the ribbon—while preserving the microphone's natural tonal balance, making the WS12 a mandatory accessory, especially for outdoor events.
Constructed from acoustically transparent foam, the WS12 minimizes unwanted air movement without noticeably affecting high-frequency details or transient response. It is ideal for studio vocals, acoustic instruments, room miking, and any application where controlled airflow is crucial.

Easy to install and remove, the WS12 provides a simple, practical layer of protection for your ribbon microphone—helping to ensure consistent performance and long-term reliability without altering the sound for which you originally chose a ribbon microphone.
