Have a question?
Improve your recordings with clarity and professionalism. The Proscreen XL Pop Filter is built to tame plosives, reduce harsh air blasts, and protect your precious microphone while preserving vocal detail. Ideal for singers, podcasters, broadcasters, and anyone who wants cleaner, crisper audio.
Key Features & Why It Matters
Metal Mesh Screen Design – The metal screen delivers durability and less distortion of high frequencies compared to cloth filters. You’ll get clean vocals without muffling the sparkle in your voice.
Louvered Openings – Specially angled openings help divert air blasts downward, which prevents undesirable pops on vocal tracks.
Flexible Gooseneck & Large Coverage – With a long, adjustable gooseneck and wide screen diameter (~6") the filter gives you room to move, adjust, and still stay protected.
Adjustable Clamp Fit – Clamp adapts to mic stands with 0.39″ to 0.925″ diameters, so it attaches securely on most standard microphone boom arms or stands.
Easy to Clean & Maintain – Metal surfaces are washable and durable, unlike fabric pop filters that degrade or stain over time. The Proscreen XL is made to last.

Who This Serves Best
- Podcasters & Broadcasters looking to reduce “pops” (hard P’s and B’s) in close-mic vocal work.
- Vocalists needing a durable, long-term solution that maintains clarity, especially in home studios.
- Streamers, voice actors, and content creators who want low-maintenance gear.
- Recording engineers tired of replacing torn or dirty cloth filters.
Real-World Usage Tips
- Position the filter 2-3 inches in front of the microphone to maximize effectiveness, while keeping it slightly off-axis to avoid wind noise.
- Ensure speakers/singers stay on the front face of the filter (the side with the brand or mesh facing them); the louvered design works best that way.
- Regularly wipe or rinse the metal screen to remove moisture or buildup; the metal surface resists water better than cloth.
- The flexible gooseneck allows positioning without stressing the stand, so you avoid vibrations or handling noise.
