Removes 100% of plosives for SM57, muffles some high frequencies and makes SM57 sould close to SM7B. Must have if you want to use your SM57 for spoken word.

Sound good

Sm57 sounds good with this on it and is very resistant to plosives.
Could probably use it on other mics as well as you need to stretch it on the 57. The issue is if you don’t put it on right, the plastic mesh stuff inside the foam moves so you need to put something thin and clean like chocolate bar rapper round your 57 to help it slide onto the foam easyer.

Plosives? Wind? What are those?
CyberDNIWE 24.05.2021
Eliminates any (and I do mean A.N.Y.) sound of plosives or wind, no matter how hard the wind is or how close you are to a mic! Has three layers of foam total, the inner of which seems to be some sort of big celled mesh. The impact on sound quality is negligible (if at all present).

Bought it for samson Q2U headless mod, and the fit is a little snug, but it did fit in the end. The only complaint is the price, and the fact that they do not make similar products for side adressed microphones, but if you can spare the cost, it is worth it!

Feels like it will last long and can be good for protecting my mic
Manilyn Music 06.08.2020
Pros: Good quality feel and it really is effective in eliminating pops.
Cons: If you are using it for your SM57, the hole is so small.
*Make a DIY slider using a plastic bottle, cut it, make a rectangle and roll it (one end fits the whole, one end fits SM57) Insert.
You are welcome

I hate to say it but it's worth the price

I was very reluctant to pay so much for a "simple windscreen" but my doubts where immediately lifted once I used this windscreen, literally a must for every shotgun style microphone for vocal recordings, plosives are impossible.

Brilliant windscreen
Jummy 23.11.2020
Does a great job of mitigating noise created by breathing into the mic when used for voice work.

Great for an SM57
Guvna 05.06.2020
Perfect for an SM57 and the spoken voice. First time its a little tight so be careful putting it on. After that its easy.
