- The Spacer Bubble and The Windkiller are multi-piece and one-piece windscreen solutions for shotgun microphones, respectively.

The Windkiller is a one-piece windscreen solution for your shotgun mic, and The Spacer Bubble is a multi-piece, modular windscreen solution for shotgun mics with a removable fur cover.
In this video, Caleb explains the difference between the two to help you decide which solution is best for your shotgun microphone.
0:37 - THE WINDKILLER
The Windkiller is a one-piece wind protection solution for shotgun microphones. Available in seven different sizes and also in a short-haired version, The Windkiller is constructed of an airy inner mesh which aims to create a space of dead air around your boom mic's capsule. This is paired with our much-loved, long-haired multi-pile faux fur cover which slows wind down gradually before any of it gets to your microphone capsule.
1:28 - THE SPACER BUBBLE
The Spacer Bubble is a multi-piece, modular wind protection solution for shotgun mics with two components. The mesh base is made of the same airy foam as The Windkiller, but with an acoustically transparent mesh covering. This can be used on its own for indoor recordings to eliminate boom swoosh and vocal plosives.
The Spacer Bubble comes with a long-haired fur cover, also available as a short-haired fur version. This fur cover is the same multi-pile faux fur as The Windkiller, but has a transparent inner material which is aimed at keeping your microphone sounding as natural as possible.
2:42 - INSTALLING THE SPACER BUBBLE
Slide the mesh base over your boom mic and you're good to go for indoor use, if you have to move outside then you can slip over the long-haired fur cover and be ready to speed in seconds.
3:37 - WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?
For all out wind protection on your boom microphone, we recommend The Spacer Bubble as there are 4 layers of material that help to protect your microphone from wind: The inner foam, transparent mesh covering, the inside of the fur which keeps your shotgun mic sounding as natural as possible, and the fur itself.
The Windkiller has 2 layers of material, the inner foam with fur glued to it.

interesting demo and info (about to by a bubble for NTG 5), but as a suggestion: wear a lighter colored shirt when demoing black products > better visibility of product vs black on black !? ;-)
I’ve owned and used the SpacerBubble for more than a year now. It’s one of the most useful investments I’ve made in my audio setup.
Thank you! That's great to hear 💚
Does the spacer bubble also come in sizes for different microphones?
Hey Gus, yes it does! Seven different sizes 😁 You can find the size guide on our website!

Thanks for the comparison and clarification. No deadcats were harmed in the making of this video 😂
You're welcome!
How would you compare these to a Rykote BBG?
Hi @@SpringdaleSolo
They are similar products however The Spacer Bubble and The Windkiller are a lot easier to use. You simply slide it onto the microphone! As there is also a foam layer under our unique multi-pile fur this adds extra wind protection whilst sounding super transparent.
I hope this helps and if you have any other questions please let us know ☺️
@@bubblebeeindustries Thank you! Ordered a couple from B&H.
@@SpringdaleSolo that’s great! Let us know how you get on ☺️
