But Rycote Baby ball and its fur seems the way to go for such a set-up, for optimal wind protection. CM3/4 are VERY sensitive for wind (and handling - vibrations). But then - the wind protection costs you more than the mic itself.
That MOVO sounds practically useless to me in that test. WS8 is the way, I guess.
For my own use - placing spaced omnis tail to tail inside Rode Blimp with deadcat might work even better (and cheaper) than the Rycote baby balls; I guess - thanks for all your practical tests:

Doesn't work for CM3s and other cardioids, though and also for music - I would probably prefer the normal, front facing AB - but also - if I will use the omnis inside blimp it would mostly be for ambient sounds recordings and that must be completely fine to place them like that...
A cool "hack", thanks!
