Warranty Rycote

The Rycote European Warranty offers 24-month coverage for Rycote products purchased within the European Union, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland, and Turkey.

MANUFACTURER’S LIMITED WARRANTY
Rycote Microphone Windshields Ltd (“Rycote”) warrants to purchasers of Rycote manufactured products (“Products”) within the European Union, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland and Turkey (“Purchasers” or a “Purchaser” as the context may require) that during the warranty period (as defined below), Rycote or a Rycote authorised distributor will, in a commercially reasonable time, remedy defects in materials, design and workmanship in Products free of charge by repairing or, should Rycote in its discretion deem it necessary, replacing the Product in accordance with this Warranty (unless otherwise required by law). This Warranty is only valid and enforceable in the country where the Purchaser has purchased the Product provided that Rycote has intended the Product for sale in that country. However, if the Purchaser purchased the Product in a member state of the European Union, Iceland, Norway, Switzerland or Turkey and Rycote originally intended the Product for sale in one of those countries, this Warranty is valid and enforceable in all of those above listed countries.

WARRANTY PERIOD
The warranty period starts on the date of the Product’s original purchase by the first end-user Purchaser and expires twenty four months after that date (hereinafter the “Warranty Period”). The Warranty Period will not be extended or renewed or otherwise affected due to subsequent resale, Rycote authorised repair or replacement of the Product.

HOW TO GET WARRANTY SERVICE
If a Purchaser wishes to make a claim under this Warranty, the Product or the affected part (if it is not the entire Product) should be returned to a Rycote authorised distributor. Contact Rycote on sales@rycote.com for further details on how to make a claim. Information concerning Rycote distributors can be found on the Rycote website. Any claim under this Warranty is subject to the Purchaser notifying Rycote or a Rycote authorised distributor of the alleged defect within a reasonable time of it having come to the attention of the Purchaser and in any event no later than expiry of the Warranty Period. When making a claim under this Warranty, the Purchaser will be required to provide: a) the Product (or the affected part) and b) the original proof of purchase, which clearly indicates the name and address of the seller, the date and place of purchase & the Product type.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED?
This Warranty does not cover a) normal wear and tear, b) defects caused by rough handling (including, without limitation, defects caused by sharp items, by bending, compressing or dropping, etc.), or c) defects or damage caused by misuse of the Product, including use that is contrary to the instructions provided by Rycote (e.g. as set out in the Product’s user guide) and/or e) other acts beyond the reasonable control of Rycote. This Warranty does not cover defects or alleged defects caused by the fact that the Product was used with otherwise than for its intended use. This Warranty is not enforceable if the Product has been modified or repaired by anyone other than a Rycote authorised distributor or if it is repaired using unauthorised spare parts (to be determined in the sole discretion of Rycote). This Warranty is not enforceable if the Product has been exposed to moisture, to dampness or to extreme thermal or environmental conditions or to rapid changes in such conditions; to corrosion, to spillage of food or liquid or to influence from chemical products.

    An RF condenser microphone using a symmetrical capsule. It has a transformerless, fully-floating balanced output. Switchable pre-attenuation and proximity effect roll-off filter are provided. The MKH30 is widely used for the S component of an MS pair both in studio and location conditions. The low-impedance capsule design makes it virtually immune to high humidity and condensation. (Rycote accessory listing is for MS stereo pairing with MKH40 or 50)
  3. sennheiser MKH 20
    An RF condenser microphone using a symmetrical capsule. It has a transformerless, fully-floating balanced output, switched pre-attenuation and diffuse-field correction.

    Ideal for critical studio and live applications, the low-profile AT4021 offers a flat, extended frequency response, high maximum SPL and wide dynamic range. Its low self-noise is perfectly suited for the most sophisticated recording equipment. Its low-mass diaphragm improves transient response, increases response bandwidth and reduces handling and mechanical noise transfer. The microphone offers outstanding reproduction of low-frequency sounds.
  9. RYC079001 HC-15 Shotgun Microphone (15cm)
    The HC-15 and HC-22 are high-quality hypercardioid shotgun microphones. Both of these mics offer performance equal to or better than many of the more expensive professional microphones, while also offering a self-noise level lower than almost any equivalent sized shotgun mic at any price.

    How did we do it? We kept things simple.
    The HC microphones are shipped with only a case — no mic clips, no foams, no other accessories. To reduce costs, we decided to minimise the packaging and shipping costs by not paying to send “air” across the world. We ask that you please find compatible Rycote foams, Softies, windshield kits, shock mounts and other accessories near you.

    Our new microphones were designed in-house and are made at Rycote in our factory in the U.K. As such, we are able to utilise much of our current manufacturing and testing resources we use to make other Rycote products. Therefore our investment costs for production was not as high as if we had started making mics from scratch. This combined with a modular material and components design allowed us to create two hypercardioid mics cost effectively and pass on more value to you.
