gwbarr Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 Ever since we got this mic for our church we have had a terrible problem with the pop sound you get from breath hitting the mic (or near it)(I.E. plosives). We never had this problem with our previous lav mics. We had one preacher that finally had to put the mic on his collar to reduce (but not eliminate) the number of times it happened. The foam windshield is attached and the dynamic filter is turned on. I turned this issue in to technical support and they just said that if I felt I had an issue I could send it in to get it fixed (which I can't image would help). My hope was that they could suggest something (like maybe a different designed windscreen). Any suggestions as this is essentially unusable as is?

dboomer Posted September 22, 2014 Share Posted September 22, 2014 The Lav mics supplied with XD-V wireless are cardioid models and are more susceptible to popping than omni mics. I suspect your last lavs were omni''s. Each has it's purpose and you may have better luck switching to an omni element. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
