Micscreen

how effective or those absorbers? ever used one?

whgat would you use to build one yourself? I was thinking about that too but I don't have tools and no talent :-)
 
I've been needing a mic screen too, as my P sounds explode in the mic. I use an SM57 on a boom stand. What would you recommend for that? And I don't expect to pay an incredible amount for this item... Sure it is important... but not above the other things I could buy with a lot of cash. :) thx

As for building the mic cube... That would block most directions, but not the one you're standing in... The Sm57 is really a directional mic, and just pics up mostly directly in front of it... might be useful... but who knows. :)
 
For blocking plosives, you need a pop filter, which is different (and a lot simpler) than the above mentioned mic screen
