DPA Windpac is nothing less than a technological breakthrough with windshield systems for microphones! The collapsible zeppelin-like windshield is made from an innovative fabric which blocks wind noise in gusts of up to 38 m/s (85 mph) while allowing accurate sound reproduction and audio transparency, and has been developed by DPA Microphones is cooperation with one of the most experienced sound engineers in the Danish film industry, Jan Juhler.
 
The DPA Windpac is an ultra-lightweight and multi-mic compatible wind proofing solution for location recording. Comprised of just two components - a shock mount and a collapsible windshield - the Windpac is extremely effective, convenient, and easy to use.
 
The shock mount is universal and can be used with any microphone without the need for clips or any other fittings. This 'one size fits all' feature is accomplished by the use of adjustable elastic straps with different settings to accommodate any microphone. The shock mount itself is suspended on a web of rubber straps providing an excellent damping effect by absorbing shock from any external disturbances.

Simple operation is at the heart of the Windpac. Mounting the windshield onto the shock mount is just a matter of sliding and clicking it into place, a quick and easy process which results in extremely low handling noise. The windshield itself can be quickly collapsed in a simple twisting motion and stored away in its own small carrying pack.
 
 
The Windpac is supplied with a mono cable and belt pouch. The Windpac-M, with medium windshield, fits any microphone length up to 30 cm (11.8 in). The Windpac-L, with large windshield, fits any microphone length up to 41 cm (16 in). The system weighs just 270 g (9½ oz).
