Can I fit a Stereo MS Pair in a Mono Windshield?

This is something we do not normally recommend. Most standard microphone designs fitted side by side will severely reduce the free air space between capsule and windshield, which is essential for good windnoise suppression. There is also a risk of the microphones crashing against the windshield. Slender single shank MS designs can be used in Mono windshields and the small “compact” or “remote capsule” microphones can be fitted into Mono Extended Ball Gags, where a small envelope has a priority over the windnoise suppression levels.
