Review on aokeo Professional Microphone Pop Filter Mask Shield - Premium Wind Pop Screen for Blue Yeti & Other Mics with Flexible 360° Gooseneck Clip Arm by Marcus Braunstein

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Inexpensive and works quite well

This was the cheapest pop filter I could find. I originally bought this for my Blue Yeti mic and have been using it with the NEEWER Adjustable Scissor Mic Stand ever since. It's not meant to be attached to the Yeti, but as long as you don't move the mic around while recording, you'll be fine assemble enough to get the job done. It attaches better to the NEEWER stand, although still not very well. The filter consists of two thin fabric membranes. I've taken a few recordings with and without the filter and it does a good job of reducing explosive sounds. The metal arm is flexible but stiff and works quite well. After about a month I noticed that the part where the lever screws into the clamp doesn't hold the pop filter like it used to. Now I mostly have to fiddle with it to get it where I want it in terms of the mic. After being away from him for a while I usually have to readjust my positioning again because the hand has sunk a bit. The clip itself is metal, but the moving jaw is plastic, so I'm a little concerned that it's going to break eventually. Overall I think this is a good buy for the price. I'll end up with a higher quality pop filter that I don't need to mess around with or be that careful with, but for now it's working fine.

Pros
  • Feels good
