Microphone windscreens are designed to reduce or eliminate wind noise when recording audio outdoors or in other windy conditions. They typically consist of a foam or other porous material that covers the microphone head. So, are mic windscreens worth it? In most cases, yes. They can be very effective at reducing or eliminating wind noise, and they’re relatively inexpensive. If you’re regularly recording audio outdoors or in other windy conditions, a mic windscreen is a wise investment.
Mic windscreens and pop filters are designed to reduce or eliminate plosives and wind noise when recording vocals. Plosives are created when air hits the microphone diaphragm, causing a popping sound. Wind noise is created when air hits the microphone diaphragm, causing a hissing sound. Both of these types of noise can be reduced or eliminated by using a mic windscreen or pop filter.
Pop filters help to reduce the amount of plosive sounds that are picked up by the microphone. These sounds can cause the audio to sound distorted and can be difficult to remove in post-production. By using a pop filter, you can help to improve the quality of your audio recordings.
Pop filters are designed to stop pops and clicks from your voice when recording, but they can also help reduce the sound of your breath. By placing the filter in front of your mouth, it will help to break up the airflow and reduce the amount of noise that is created.

For my Blue Yeti, this was my third windscreen/mic cover purchase; the precise pop filters I had previously used are given below.The Neewer NW(B-3) 6 inch Studio Microphone Mic Round Shape Pop Filter and the multi-layer semi-cylinder pop filters held in place by elastic bands are garish and oversized disk-shaped pop filters with bendy arms that screw-clamp onto the microphone arm. This product is much more stylish, portable, and practical (Sywon Metal Mesh and Foam Layer Mic Cover).Although some people have complained about their foam cover tearing, I had no trouble installing it. The foam was administered by cupping it in my hand and massaging it down onto the Blue Yeti as though I were giving it a noogie. I simply exhaled a warm, wet breath into the foam to make it flexible before application (which may have had a questionable degree of impact).This is more effective than the other pop filter options at reducing background noise and accidental keystrokes that I don't want the microphone to record. Additionally, because it is smaller, I can move the microphone and boom-arm assembly out of the way more simply when not in use.Since I'll never go back, I just need to decide what to do with the old pop filters.

I own three headsets with missing foam screens: the Turtle Beach XO Four (crap), the SADES R6 (totally trash), and the Hyperx Cloud (crap for consoles). A little more securely on the SADES headset than the Turtle Beach headset, this product fit on both headsets quite nicely. The turtle beach is really snug, and the Sades was comfortably snug, so I didn't need any electrical tape or glue to keep the foam in place.If it's any assistance, the size of these foam balls is roughly equivalent to a huge black olive.

Adjustable Gooseneck: The steel metal gooseneck holder fully supports the filter's weight and keep it in place. You can adjust the angle and distance between the screen and the microphone to best fit your needs for yours lovely voice.
Functions: Banish the dreaded hissing and lisping sounds that come when pronouncing the letter "S" and blocks those ugly "plosives" that follows "B" and "P". It is a great item for singers, streamers and actors alike who want help achieving the best possible performance and help protect the spitting all over your personal microphone.
Double Layered Screen Pop Filters: The first screen blocks air blasts as any pop filter normally would; The gap in between then disperses any remaining air pressure, so by the time it passes the second screen, the blast is easily contained to produce great quality recordings.
Easy To Use: Swivel mount for easy installation, removal and location adjustment. Aokeo Professional High Standard Microphones and Aokeo Premium Quality Stands are sold separately (NOT INCLUDED)
Universally Compatible: Adjustable screw rotating clamp with scratch-proof gripper can secure variety tubular mounting booms or microphone stands. Eliminates anyone's extra elements that prevents them from recording/projecting their best vocals to the public or their audience.

I could only find this pop filter for a reasonable price. The NEEWER Adjustable Microphone Suspension Boom Scissor Arm Stand has since replaced the Blue Yeti microphone for which I first purchased it. Although it's not designed to clamp onto the Yeti, you can install it securely enough for it to function as intended as long as you don't move the microphone while recording. Even if it clamps better to the NEEWER stand, it's still not ideal. Two thin membranes made of cotton make up the filter. The filter does a good job of reducing plosives in the recordings I made, both with and without it. The metal arm functions adequately and is stiff but flexible. After about a month, I observed that the pop filter was no longer being held firmly in place by the arm that screws onto the clamp. Now, I frequently have to fiddle with it to get it to align with the mic in the position I want. I frequently have to adjust the positioning again after a short break because the arm has a tendency to drop down. I'm a little worried that because the clamp is made of metal but the moving jaw component is plastic, it may ultimately break.Overall, I believe it to be a nice purchase for the price. This works great for the time being, but eventually I'll purchase a better pop filter that I don't have to fiddle with or be as cautious with.

The five-pack offers good value for the money. The box was sealed and the item arrived promptly. Extreme deformation and "markings" in the shape of deep wrinkles in the foam are brought on by the packaging. I was first fairly put off by how the covers looked, but after reading some advice in other people's reviews, I managed to get all but one of the covers in the package to seem decent by running them through the dryer for a short while and letting them sit overnight. One of the package coverings still has a noticeable crease on it and generally seems cheap. Unless I place this cover on a microphone that is never used in public, I doubt I'll ever use it. I understand why all of the rivals are packaged similarly, so I'm rather certain that I would purchase the same covers again.
4.5/5
Function: the foam cover is made of high density foam, it helps improve recording quality by reducing unwanted noises and wind interference
Good choice for musical instruments, podcasting, voice-covers, interviews, field recordings, conference calls
Attention: the foam microphone covers was squeezed in a bag, so please put it out for a little time then it will return to its original shape
Application: protect your Blue Yeti microphone from dust and saliva, good for indoor and outdoor use
Note: the mic cover is designed for the Blue Yeti and Yeti Pro condenser microphone, package not included Blue Yeti microphone and accessories, only the foam cover

This is an extremely useful item for streamers. I've never liked watching everyone talk into their microphones while having these ungainly pop filters strapped to their mic stands. Yes, I can see the need for something like that if you're a vocalist who SINGS into the microphone, but for the rest of us, you don't need that silly-looking contraption. Yes, I suppose it gives your microphone setup a "studio quality" appearance to certain folks, but let's face it—not it's necessary. This inexpensive small foam cover simply slides over the mesh on your YETI mic and performs all the functions of a pop filter. Installing takes ten seconds, and then you're done FOREVER. Just set it and forget it; there's no need to modify it or move it about with pop filters.This is coming from someone who was frustrated with their last microphone's fancy pop filter after spending a lot of money on it. I wanted to test this out when I first purchased my YETI a few months back, and it worked well. Never again will I fiddle with a pop filter when a foam windscreen would do.People also fail to recognize that pop filters only shield your microphone from wind in one direction. Where you stream or record, the weather, the location of your AC vents, even ceiling fans, may all mess with a microphone with pop filters. Pop filters cannot stop the air being pulled up or blown down by ceiling fans. AC vents that are blowing down definitely pick up more wind noise. How can you prevent that? Obtain this windshield! I tested it with box fans in the room to see whether it could stop wind and air from coming from ANY direction.

Double screen mesh gives the best distortion-free recording without degrading the quality of your voice. Remove the pops and nothing else.
Easily clamps to square/rectangular microphone arms - most pop filters are designed for tubular microphone stands, and not square/rectangular booms.
Compatible with the Blue Yeti microphone, this pop filter clamps directly to the Blue Yeti and Yeti Pro. The simple clamp will not damage your beautiful microphone, and you do NOT need to drill a hole just to fix a pop filter.
Don't have a Yeti? No problem, because you can use this pop shield with any other desktop USB microphone by clamping it on to your desk. Such an easy way to filter the pops from your podcasts, voiceovers or screen captures.
Strong, yet pliable, gooseneck holder supports the weight of the filter head, and makes for trouble-free placement. Set it and forget it.

About a pop-up screen, not much can be said. This was a purchase I made with my Yeti microphone, and it fits securely on the base. And what about that? Most pops are stopped. Yeah. It carries out what it promises. That's nice. once only.And my podcast has fantastic audio. I've already recorded a good half a dozen episodes on the Unified Republic of Stars, and it's still going strong. That's quality, then.A couple of things to consider:1) It does clamp securely to the Yeti's stand, but you'll likely need to fiddle with it to get the USB port and the headphone jack to fit. However, it just takes a couple of minutes out of your day, and you're probably not making any money from it anyway, so what's a couple of minutes, right?2) It doesn't prevent lip-smacking from being heard. When recording, pay attention for it. When you press your lips together during speech, there may be a slight pop if your lips are wet (I'm sure there's a technical term for this, but who am I to know it?). a linguist? But it's really small, and probably barely audible to anyone save the person taking the tape. And without this filter, I'm certain that it would be worse. Simply search for those minuscule blips on the waveform and remove them. Or, perhaps, lip balm.Since you should speak into the mike at roughly a handwidth, position it somewhat farther away from the microphone than that. It's not really my thing, unless you prefer to rub your lips against the filter, which I can understand. Additionally, I suppose that less saliva might extend its duration.The one-pack I purchased seemed to be more than plenty for me. But I'll let you know if, after the subsequent episodes, I notice it disintegrating.Moreover, the free ebook. A nice little bonus. Didn't really teach me anything new, but then then, I've kept records of other things. However, if you're a novice, it might completely alter the way you perceive sounds. Or not. Hey, it's your call.

The fact that it is a pop filter that works for voice plosives is the biggest pro, along with good gooseneck tension and clamp grips to the "mic" stand.I was hesitant to purchase this inexpensive filter after reading reviews from some individuals who complained about the pop filter clamp not holding securely. I would caution against attaching the stand to objects with lower diameters because this is designed to fit the diameter of a "Mic" stand.

It's a top-notch item. Nothing special, but for $8 delivered, what do you expect? didn't have as big of an impact on plosives as I would have liked. However, there must be a compromise between reducing breath noise and reducing speech noise.It was thoughtfully packaged with two extra rubber straps. It's always lovely to see such small details in items."My Rating Standards"5 Stars: It performs as promised, has the expected fit and finish for a product of this nature, and is a good value.Work as described, fit and finish are what you'd expect from a product of this nature, slight defect possible.3 Stars: It mostly works, but there are a few things I'd change OR Product is excellent but does not match the pictures or descriptionsBarely works, but if you try, it might be handy.Useless, completely ineffective, and an overall financial waste of time and money.

Five dollars! Five dollars! For my Blue Snowball USB mike, I was using an old hanger and stocking combination as a pop filter because it was cheaper, but $5.33 on Amazon. Give it a go, I thought. What a relief it was. Delivery on the same day was convenient. I acquired it along with other things. It is safe to assume that my old DIY pop filter has seen its final use after some use and a few trials.This pop filter performs similarly to my musician brother's $80.00 model. Even though I'm not a pro, I use the Dragonpad to narrate my own YouTube movies and animations. The arm has a rubber coating that prevents rusting, and it has a very elegant appearance. My pop filter has eliminated the popping that occurs after the letters "p" and "b," as well as the hissing and lisping that emerged while pronouncing letters like "s." The pop filter is double layered to accurately filter popping while also guarding against any spittle harming my priceless microphone. (I've been known to spit occasionally.)The gooseneck is 360-degree adjustable, making it really easy to use and manage—even for me: ) A nice lock is provided by the swivel mount, which secures the entire pop filter to the surface to which it is attached.You can't go wrong with this gem for the price. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.Edit: I found that hardly any air passes through the pop filter screen when you blow on it. That's probably a good thing, :)Five dollars!

After reading numerous user reviews and comparing prices, I decided that the Earamble Studio Microphone was the best option when seeking for a studio condenser microphone. The microphone appeared to fulfill my demands, and the price is fair. In addition, I purchased the microphone's pop filter and arm suspension.My expectations have been met and the Earamble Pop Filter performs as promised. Without it, speaking directly into the microphone can produce popping noises from the wind or breath directly striking the microphone. By preventing wind from directly reaching the mic, this pop filter stops offensive noises like hissing and popping.The filter features two layers of fine mesh material and is spherical in shape. It includes a metal screw clamp on the end that allows you to secure it to a desk, a table, or the suspension and is coupled to a gooseneck holder so you can effortlessly adjust it whatever you like. Since the clamp is rubberized, you may attach it to anything without worrying about damaging it. I am pleased with this pop filter screen, and I believe it is a worthwhile investment if you also get a microphone. The recording quality significantly improves.
Car audio is one of the most important factors to many drivers. To have good quality sound, you need good quality speakers and a good amplifier. But what many people don't realize is that your car's windscreen has a big impact on the quality of sound in your car. Windscreens can cause sound waves to bounce off of them and distort the sound that you hear. They can also absorb some of the sound, which can make it harder to hear. If you want the best sound quality in your car, you need to make sure that your windscreen is in good
If you want to reduce the amount of wind noise coming into your microphone, then you'll need a windscreen. If you're worried about plosives (hard consonants like "p" and "b"), then you'll need a pop filter.
Pop filters are designed to reduce the popping sound that occurs when certain consonants are pronounced. While they can be effective at reducing this type of noise, they can also reduce the overall quality of your microphone's sound. This is because pop filters can block some of the high frequency sounds that your microphone picks up. As a result, your microphone may not be able to pick up all of the nuances in your voice. If you're looking for the best possible sound quality from your microphone, you may want to avoid using a pop filter.
To reduce wind noise in your microphone, you can try a few different things. One is to use a windshield or "pop" filter. This will help to deflect the wind away from the microphone. Another option is to use a foam cover over the microphone. This will help to absorb some of the wind noise. Finally, you can try using a different microphone position. If you are using a shotgun microphone, try pointing it slightly off to the side so that the wind hits it less directly.
A pop filter is a device that is placed in front of a microphone to reduce plosive sounds caused by the hard consonants of the English language. Cheap pop filters are made with thin metal mesh, and they work by diffusing the air that hits the microphone. The problem with cheap pop filters is that they can cause the sound of your voice to become muffled. If you are recording a podcast or video, you want your voice to be clear and concise. For this reason, it is better to invest in a quality pop filter.
A pop filter is a mesh screen that is placed in front of a microphone to reduce "popping" sounds that can occur when certain consonants are pronounced. The mesh screen filters out the sound waves that cause the popping sound, and the result is a clearer recording. There is no harm in having the pop filter touch the microphone, as long as the mesh screen is not blocking the microphone's sound opening. If the mesh is blocking the sound opening, then it will reduce the quality of the recording.
