Avid deadcat windscreen for Blue Snowball iCE (Black)

Designed for Blue Snowball iCE

This deadcat windscreen is built specifically for the Blue Snowball iCE microphone in black. It slips over the capsule to reduce wind noise, plosives and saliva intrusion during recording or streaming. The cover accommodates the USB cable and stand mount without blocking connections. It suits podcasters, streamers and voice-over artists who need clearer audio outdoors or in untreated rooms.

Limits of passive wind protection

The fur layer attenuates air movement but cannot remove electronic hiss, room echo or handling vibration transmitted through the stand. Very strong gusts may still produce low-frequency rumble that reaches the capsule. Because it relies on acoustic absorption rather than active filtering, extremely loud plosives close to the grille can still be audible. Users in high-wind environments should expect some residual noise.

Check fit before ordering

Verify that your microphone is the Blue Snowball iCE model in black; other Snowball variants or differently coloured units may not match the tailored opening. Ensure the stand or boom arm you use leaves enough vertical clearance for the windscreen's depth. Confirm the USB cable routing on your desk allows the cover to seat fully without tension on the connector.
