There's a couple of things you can do to reduce the 'plosives. Easiest is to move the microphone away from directly in front of you mouth, so that you're no longer talking directly into it. Desktop mics can be moved to about a 10:00 or 2:00 o'clock position relative to your mouth. For headset-mounted mics, just move the mic boom up to about the level of the tip of your nose.Sir Percival Blakeney wrote:I noticed the popping sound in section 09 so in section 10, I tried to speak over the microphone differently, and I think it has less explosives. I used a different kind of microphone in section 08 which is why that one didn't have that problem. Do you think I should re-read section 09, or leave as is?

The other thing you can do is to use a pop filter, or windscreen. You can buy one at Radio Shack, but they only have two sizes: huge, for big hand-held pics, and tiny, for lapel or tie-clip style mics. You can also make one out of a small embroidery hoop, some old stocking, and some stiff wire. If you're interested in making one, I can post a link to a photo of one that one of the admins made for her setup.
