Hello,
So I got a Rode Blimp mk2 to go with my MKE-600. Do you have any tips for storage and transport?

I'm looking at like Peli case or a Nanuk 935. I presume they would be big enough to fit it and my audio recorder and maybe a few extra mics ? Without one at hand, it's hard to imagine and consider how much extra space I want/need for foam. Or if a "photography" padding case would suffice and be able to hold the blimp in its length.

Do you have any experience and what's your tips for storing and transporting your audio equipment?

Cheers!

My new Rode Blimp 2 arrived today, for my recently acquired AT8022.

Haven't quite figured out the transport part either, so I'm all ears.

Ironically, there's no wind today whatsoever.

Cool setup! Looking forward to hearing recordings from it
In my experience the rode helped a lot with windnoise. Where the MKE600 even with its stock windcover would struggle on mild wind.
I'm convinced of its effectiveness personally ^^

Thanks Sadiquecat.

Yeah, the blimp is quite an expensive addition. I had to be sure that it would be effective and so watched quite a number of reviews first.

Seems to get positive feedback, and thanks for your confirmation.

Hopefully I'll be able to capture some nice sounds a bit more often in this terribly windy place.
