Finish the chain properly.

Pop filters, windscreens, shock mounts, Cloudlifter preamps and Klotz XLR cables that take plosives, noise and hum out of your recordings.

A pop filter or foam tames plosives, a shock mount keeps desk knocks out of the signal, and a Cloudlifter adds clean gain for quiet dynamic mics like the SM7B. Check the fit against your mic model.

MICROPHONE ACCESSORIES FAQ

Before you buy.

Straight answers to the questions we hear most about microphone accessories.

Pop filter or foam windscreen: which do I need?

Both reduce the bursts of air from P and B sounds. A foam windscreen such as the SHURE RK345 for SM7 models fits over the microphone itself, while a pop filter like the Elgato Wave Pop Filter attaches in front of it. Mic-specific options, such as the On-Stage pop blocker for the RODE PodMic, give the cleanest fit.

What does a shock mount do?

A shock mount suspends the microphone on elastic or rubber mounts, so desk bumps, typing and boom arm movement do not reach the recording as low thumps. Universal mounts are sized by mic diameter, like the Gator Frameworks 42-48mm and 55-60mm models, while the Elgato Wave Shock Mount is made for Wave microphones.

Do I need an extension rod for my mic stand?

An extension rod lifts the microphone higher on its stand, so it sits closer to your mouth without you leaning in. The Elgato Wave Extension Rod is made for the Wave mic stand, and the SHURE A26X adds a 3-inch extension to desk stands.

Is an isolation shield useful in an untreated room?

An isolation shield, such as the TONOR or Aokeo models, wraps behind the mic to reduce the echo and reflections it picks up. It helps in bare rooms, and placing the mic close to your mouth and adding soft furnishings or acoustic panels makes a clear difference too.
