Windshields for the HSP 2  
The quality of outdoor recordings  
and close miking can be impaired  
by wind noise. An effective  
attenuation of wind noise can be  
obtained by using the MZW 2 and  
the MZW 02 windshields.  
»
To begin with, use the MZW 2  
windshield » which reduces wind  
noise by a maximum of 20 dB.  
With the additional MZW 02 foam  
windshield you can reduce wind  
noise by a further 10 dB.  
The MZW 2 and MZW 02 are  
available as accessories.

Treble boost using the frequency response caps  
Your HSP 2 headmic is supplied with two different frequency  
response caps. These caps allow you to adjust the microphone’s  
sensitivity in the presence area (see “Frequency response curve  
HSP 2” on page 24):  
Short cap: MZC 2-1 (treble boost of 2 dB)  
Long cap: MZC 2-2 (treble boost of 4 dB)  
Use these caps if the microphone cannot be positioned close to the  
mouth. The further away the microphone is from the mouth, the  
less treble is picked up. In addition, you should use these caps if  
the sound is too muffled or if you want to increase the speech  
intelligibility.  
̈ Slip the cap of your choice onto the microphone until it engages  
with the second notch.
