Now your recordings will be even cleaner than they used to be. Hope it helps you to realize that many studio equipment can be DIY, so you can spend the big bucks on the rock n' roll lifestyle LOL.

Pretty cool, it almost looks pro. One piece of advice though, it appears that you put on multiple layers of the stocking. I cut mine in half so that there is only one layer of fabric over the mic, and it still works pretty well, but there is no noticeable volume difference.

Hi, I don't want to be rude or smart but let me tell you that you dont need a pop filter to a dynamic mic like this one. Have you ever seen a singer on a live gig using a pop filter? Have you ever seen recording singer NOT using pop filter while singing to a CONDENSER mic or a RIBBON mic in a studio? Besides these Shures have foam lining inside the srew cap and this serves the same purpose as a pop filter. I like your pop filter though. One of the well made I've seen.

Ummm, I use a shure PG27 Digital mic and I stil get pops all the times?! And as far as live, Im sure it doesnt really matter about pops that much while live, unless their recording it...when I do live shows I get pops all the time, no one seems to care, and again, its a condenser mic

BTW, this mic is the only one I have at the moment for recording purposes, I don't use it for live performances. Second, this mic when recording does pop when pronouncing P or B's. So, try to be nice next time on all your comment not just the bottom end, and try to have the full information before assuming stuff. Thanks.

Well put.

Sorry, did not mean to offend you or upset. You are right. I don't know that mic and so i don't know what works for you. Anyway, I like your pop filter, looks really well made.

I'm not offended, next time just don't be like that. LOL, I'm glad you liked it!
