sE Electronics Metal Pop Filter Microphone Pop Screen

The sE Electronics Metal Pop Filter is a studio microphone accessory designed to reduce distracting plosive bursts during vocal recording. It places a shaped metal screen between the performer and microphone to redirect sudden air blasts from sounds such as “P” and “B.” This helps keep low-frequency pops from reaching the microphone capsule while maintaining a clean recording setup.

It is suited to singers, voice-over artists, podcasters, broadcasters, and home-studio users working with stand-mounted microphones. The universal mounting bracket is intended to fit a wide range of microphone stands and recording arrangements. Its flexible gooseneck allows the screen to be placed where it is needed in front of the mic.

Rather than using a conventional fabric membrane, this filter uses a perforated metal mesh screen with louvered openings. The slightly convex screen design redirects low-frequency breath energy toward the sides of the filter. sE Electronics states that this approach avoids attenuating high frequencies, helping preserve vocal detail.

The Metal Pop Filter has an all-metal construction, including its screen and gooseneck, for a durable alternative to fabric pop shields. Its black finish and slim profile keep the filter visually unobtrusive in studio, podcast, and voice-recording spaces. The gooseneck is designed to hold its position at different angles after adjustment.

This accessory can be added to an existing microphone stand, boom, or vocal-recording station without changing the microphone, interface, or signal chain. It works as a practical front-end recording accessory for close vocal work where plosive control is needed before audio reaches the microphone. A separate microphone, stand, and recording equipment are required for a complete recording setup.

• Universal Mounting Bracket: Attaches to a variety of microphone stand setups.

Design & Installation

The Metal Pop Filter uses a black perforated metal screen, metal gooseneck, and universal mounting bracket. Its screen is louvered at an angle and formed with a slight convex shape rather than using a flat fabric membrane. The durable metal construction is intended for repeated positioning in recording environments.

Attach the mounting bracket to a suitable microphone stand or boom, then bend the gooseneck to position the screen between the vocalist and microphone. Adjust the filter so it sits directly in the path of breath blasts without contacting the microphone or obstructing access to controls. The filter is intended for use with microphones and a stand; neither is included with the pop filter.
