Microphone cover (purple) for Rode Interview GO lavalier kit – accessory pop filter/windshield

Designed for the Rode Interview GO lavalier kit, this purple microphone cover functions as a lightweight windscreen and pop filter that protects the microphone capsule from dust and moisture while reducing wind noise and plosives during interviews, field recordings and broadcast work. The cover is easy to fit over the lavalier microphone and maintains clear vocal capture without adding significant bulk or weight.

Advantages

The purple windscreen provides consistent reduction of breath blasts and wind interference, helping speech remain intelligible in indoor and outdoor conditions. Its soft, resilient foam construction shields the capsule from light impacts, dust and moisture while preserving the microphone's tonal characteristics. The cover is compact and simple to install or remove, making it suitable for fast setup and quick microphone changes during shoots or reporting.

• Interviews on location and in studio
• Broadcast reporting and ENG work
• Field recording and documentary production
• Voice capture for online video, vlogging and streaming

Key specifications

• Material: resilient acoustic foam designed for minimal coloration
• Function: windscreen / pop filter and protective cover
• Colour: purple
• Fit: designed to fit lavalier microphones used with Rode Interview GO kit

How to use

Slide the foam cover over the lavalier microphone capsule until it seats securely around the microphone head. Ensure the cover fully encloses the capsule and does not obstruct any microphone clips or connectors. For outdoor use, position the microphone and cover to minimize direct wind exposure where possible. Remove the cover before cleaning the microphone body and reattach after the microphone is dry and free of debris.

Recommendations

Regularly inspect the foam for wear, tears or compression; replace the cover if its acoustic performance or physical protection is compromised. For heavy wind conditions consider using an additional external furry windshield or mounting the microphone in a protected position while keeping the foam cover in place for pop reduction and moisture protection.
