Pop shield

I have merged the information from Pop shield and made that article redirect here. "Pop filter" seems to be the more common term (71000 Google results versus 6590) Andy Smith (talk) 13:30, 20 August 2005 (UTC)

Update 2015-07-30: I get 506K with "pop filter" vs. 96K with "pop shield" -be sure to use the quotes, otherwise Google finds pages with just "filter" and adds them to the total.

Scientific/Tech info

I was hoping there'd be a scientific article on the precise cause of popping. Does it have to do with microphone mechanical saturation, electrical saturation, or other inherent pressure effects. There should be an article "microphone popping" which would link here -or perhaps pop filter would be a subsection. 108.213.76.24 (talk) 14:49, 30 July 2015 (UTC)

Would be great indeed! Syced (talk) 12:05, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

According to [1], high-frequency components are from air moving past the grille and the low-frequency part is from air impacting the diaphragm. Of course, mechanical and electrical saturation can also happen depending on the amount of headroom designed into these systems. ~Kvng (talk) 17:04, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Added a new Background section with this info. ~Kvng (talk) 17:16, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

Photo caption

The caption described it as "in a bedroom", however the set of photos on flickr is described: "Recording in the LDS Lakeshore building seminary room. Believe it or not, it made for a decent make-shift studio." It seems the photo was taken during a recording session for a charity. Anyway, it felt a bit unkind to imply it was just someone singing in their bedroom. 203.217.150.69 (talk) 06:24, 25 February 2010 (UTC)

Sound samples for comparison

Could someone please upload the same sentence recorded with and without a pop filter? Thanks! Syced (talk) 12:05, 20 July 2016 (UTC)

spoffle
