PROEL APOP50 - Nylon Pop Filter with Flexible Gooseneck
Achieving a professional vocal recording requires meticulous attention to every detail in the audio chain, and one of the most critical elements is controlling vocal dynamics before they reach the microphone capsule. The Proel APOP50 is an essential solution for sound engineers, podcasters, and artists looking to eliminate unwanted plosives and sibilance without sacrificing the natural clarity of the performance.
This pop filter has been meticulously designed with a high-quality nylon screen . Unlike improvised solutions, the APOP50's nylon weave acts as a selective acoustic barrier: it disperses the explosive air energy generated when pronouncing strong consonants like "P" or "B," while allowing the free passage of high and mid frequencies that give the voice brightness and definition. This ensures clean recordings from the very first take, drastically reducing the need for corrective editing in post-production.
Versatility is another strong point of this accessory. It features a flexible metal gooseneck that allows for precise positioning of the screen in front of any microphone, remaining firmly in place once adjusted. Its mounting system consists of a universal fixing screw, designed to securely attach to most straight microphone stands or boom arms on the market, ensuring stability during long recording sessions.

Furthermore, by protecting the microphone capsule from moisture and saliva salts, it significantly extends the lifespan of delicate and expensive condenser microphones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the pop filter affect the recording volume?
Not noticeably. The nylon mesh is designed to be acoustically transparent, allowing sound to pass through while only blocking gusts of air.
Is it compatible with desktop microphone arms?
Yes, as long as the arm has a tubular section where the clamp can grip. The screw system is quite adaptable to different thicknesses.
How do you clean a nylon screen?
It is recommended to clean it gently with a damp cloth or low-pressure compressed air to remove accumulated dust, avoiding excessively wetting the mesh.
