Patent attributes
Methods, systems and apparatus are described for mitigating noise during sound recording. A noise mitigating microphone attachment comprises a foam structure. A first cavity extending from a first opening at a surface of the foam structure and into the foam structure. A microphone is inserted into the first cavity with sound receiving elements of the microphone fully installed in the structure. A second cavity extending from a second opening at the surface of the foam structure and into the foam structure is configured to receive sound from a sound source. The first cavity is fluidly connected to the second cavity within the foam structure so that a junction is formed between the first cavity and the second cavity. The junction, the sound cavity, and the sealing of the microphone work to shield the sound receiving elements of the microphone from sound other than received through the second opening.
