The largest clips that come with the Rode Blimp DO fit the NT4. You need to=
 push a bit harder to get it in, but there is plenty of meat in them to tak=
e the NT4 without breaking.

The NT4 is 32mm diameter and the large clips 30mm. Don't try and open them =
wide enough to put over the body of the mic. Instead, slide the mic into th=
em from the tapered XLR end. It isn't as hard as it sounds.
