Hey Jack, Long time, no see! :-)
You could consider fitting a foam wind sock over the mic head, as is sometimes done on vocal mics. However, with good cup technique (and a strategically placed finger as a spacer) there's really no need to put anyting over the mic.

Subject: [Harp-L] "HarmonicaKnock"
When playing harp amplified, especially with my wireless EV , the diatonic
frequently knocks or rubs against the microphone , causing highly
undesirable noise or "knock". I'm sure many of you have noticed this over
time.
Other than simply exercising a disciplined habit of keeping the cupped
mic a distance from the harp in the same hand , has anyone used a rubber or
cloth shield over the body/screen of the mic to prevent this clatter or
"knocking" noise? If so, what have you used?
I appreciate all of ya'll's comments...day to day..
Regards from Colorful Colorado,
Harmonica Jack, Denver
