  • My new album is out, proof these tips work I guess. It's not generic garbage, trust me: distrokid.com/...
    Ever wonder if using a pop filter for recording vocals actually makes a difference? I explain what a pop filter is and show you a recording done with and without a pop filter. Then I show you how to make one with materials you already have.

    Thanks for the tip. This actually works. See I did have a hanger, but I didn't have a sock🙁 so I had to improvise & I came across a mouse pad on my desk & it had a thin surface that felt exactly like a stocking would. So I pulled it off & tape it around the support for the filter & bang I have a homemade filter & didn't even have to buy one. Thanks so much again for the tutorial it helped out & saved me some money.
