Proscreen XL - Black

Two stars because I did receive my order quickly, and the parts I received seem sturdy, but there seems to be a screw missing that attaches the gooseneck to the mount. Ordered a replacement. Will follow up once u receive the replacement. UPDATE: Three days later. Five Stars. Received replacement which is in perfect condition (there was a nut missing from the first pop filter I received). This is a great pop filter not only because it works beautifully but I can look THROUGH the filter at my copy! No weird angling of my mic or positioning my head to see around my nylon mesh pop filter.

High quality Pop Filter.

From listening to my test recordings on my pre-production rig, I could immediately distinguish the clarity of the Stedman vs. your general nylon pop filters, which I've used for years. I haven't used it in my main studio rig yet, but I already know it will be an improvement. I really like the sturdiness of the clamp and gooseneck. I also like that you can see the capsule of the mic better, which leads to better placement. I imagine this will be the last pop filter I will need for several years, as it is washable. My only gripe is the price. It's a little pricier than I'd like to pay for a piece of perforated steel mesh on a gooseneck, but hey, you get what you pay for (so it's not really a gripe, is it?!). Looks like I'll be purchasing another for my pre-production rig in the near future.

I'm a songwriter and use high-end digital recording using my iMac to produce excellent results except those darn "pops" while singing. I've tried creating my own filters (hoop and sheer stocking) with mixed results and most of the commercial are based along these lines. This filter uses a screen that diverts the puff of air downward and away from the mic. It really works! The tone is slightly crispy but that is easily fixed in the EQ. Pops are a real pain to fix. These artifacts create clipping which in the analog approach creates some interesting effects but in digital recording sounds awful. Every studio needs a pop filter and this one is worth the price. Also, it is sturdy, connects to my mic stand well, and made in USA.

It's well built but I think you could probably do just as well with a pop-filter in the $30 - $50 range. If you use a knife to open the shipping box do not stick it in too deep because the pop filter is only framed in its original box with the circular grill being totally exposed. My knife hit the grill but luckily didn't scratch it, open the box gently. For the packaging folks, be sure to ship this grill side down.

cleaned up all my heavy harsh loud vocals, doing all kinds of deathcore or even hardcore on this thing! I legit can scream and never worry about plosives, my vocals just come through so clear. love this thing!

This a really good pop filter. I still store in the box when I am not using it. I bent it all sorts of ways and it has not let me down one bit. I like the fact that this isnt a typical fabric pop filter, so it makes it easy to clean. I havent found a reason to get another pop filter. You can use this with or without your mic wind screen. I find that I use mine most of the time, because I feel I get a little more clarity. I filter clipped to a DR Pro mic stand stand.

After reading several reviews, this seemed to be the pop filter that worked best for a reasonable price. Very happy the results. It eliminates the pop from my vocal recordings making a great difference.
