Pop Filters are generally available in two types. Nylon or the lesser known and used steel mesh type. Either style has benefits depending on your point of view.
As an example some believe a metallic mesh filter will have a greater impact on the filtered sound you are recording while a nylon filter will have less of an influence. (It should be mentioned this relies purely on opinion and that both are effective in reducing plosive noise considerably).
Some believe that there is not any obvious difference between the two, whilst some make the point that each will deaden the sound to some extent, it really is just a question of which does the most damage to your recording.
We have a tendency to agree with this point of view but at the same time understand that almost nothing sounds more second-rate on an audio sound recording than an excessive microphone pop, so with this in mind a pop filter should almost always be use when recording the human voice.
There is undoubtedly some change to the audio when using a pop screen should you have a very good ear but this is considered a relatively small price to pay in nearly all instances, the rewards of using one very much provide more benefits than with-out.
The Aluminum design and style of a model such as the MXL P003 is easier to clean and will naturally stand the test of time better but is by and large much more expensive to buy whilst the nylon model can certainly degrade a touch quicker although this will likely come down to the quantity of work it needs to do and ways in which it is treated.
The primary aspect of difference amid providers is usually the attachment clamp and versatile arm and this is surely an area which is suitable of much more analysis. A strong model for example, the Pro Screen XL is quite economical and features a superb clamp and it has a really accommodating arm that allows for precise movement.
On occasion you may notice a dual screen being used in a recording environment, this is less typical in comparison to the normal Pop Filter. Basically this just increases the filtering of audio and is only used once absolutely necessary.
Usually an expert performer or voice talent with a little experience will not call for this sort of filtering however, if you are noticing a problem with plosive sound on your track even after having an individual pop filter invariably you could use a couple of pop filters as an alternative to a double pop filter.
