When recording vocal tracks or podcasts, ambient and reflected sounds can be a problem, especially when tracking outside of a studio or in rooms not acoustically treated. Block outside noise from entering your vocal tracks and effortlessly improve the quality of your recordings or podcast by using the Stage Right by Monoprice Microphone Isolation Shield.
- Stable Frame and Foldable
- Noise Cancellation
- Metal Shield
- Complete Set for Sound Recording
The Stage Right Microphone Isolation Shield features an acoustic foam front and a vented metal back plate, which provides a stable frame that prevents reflections within the arc of the shield. It uses a dual clamp mounting bracket, which attaches to microphone booms or stands up to 1 1/4" in diameter. The shield's two outer panels can be folded inward for storage or for creating a tighter acoustic isolation chamber.
With it's layer of acoustic foam, the Stage Right Microphone Isolation Shield reduces outside noise by 25dB, equivalent to a 17x difference in volume! By comparison, a normal conversation is roughly 55dB. The shield can easily reduce that volume down to 30dB, which is equivalent to a whisper. The Stage Right Microphone Isolation Shield does the same thing with any unwanted noise, keeping your vocal tracks cleaner and clearer by orders of magnitude.
Unlike similar products made of plastic, the Stage Right Microphone Isolation Shield is not only made of metal, but is a full 23.5" wide when fully opened. Not only does this give it more stability, but it allows for adjustment of the arch, with the ability to open or close it as much as desired. Additional acoustic treatment is possible using the shield's crossbar to position the microphone closer to or further from the shield.
The Stage Right Microphone Isolation Shield comes with a standard 3/8" microphone threaded mount and includes a 3/8" to 5/8" thread adapter, as well. It can be used in a normal upright orientation or it can be inverted, so that the microphone hangs down inside the chamber. All assembly and mounting hardware is included.
