Which Rode microphone accessories do I need for recording in windy conditions?

For windy recording conditions, look for a wind cover that fits your microphone. The Rode Dead Mouse Pin High Wind Cover is an option to investigate, but check compatibility before buying.
Wind protection helps reduce the unwanted rumble caused by moving air hitting a microphone. The Rode Dead Mouse Pin High Wind Cover is listed at £25 new; confirm its intended microphone fit rather than choosing by brand alone.
If you’re considering the Rode M2 Condenser Microphone Black, listed at £81 new, don’t assume that this cover fits it. The supplied details don’t establish compatibility between the two, so check the manufacturer’s fit guidance before pairing them.
