What pop filters work best for the Blue Yeti?

Any decent pop filter will work. I picked one up at a local store for $10 and it works just fine. No need to spend ridiculous money on a branded pop filter when it will do the same job.

This will fit the blue yeti that is what I use it for but if u want to use the shock mount its a bit tight. You can use it with the shock mount but it is hard getting it in so I use it without the shock mount piece. Hope that helps

This device improves sound quality by helping prevent the impact of "plosives." These are low-frequency noises created when certain words such as "pop" or "box" are spoken. (Look up the definition of "plosive" on Wikipedia.) These create a brief pressure wave that impacts the microphone with enough force as to create a "boom" or "thump" sound. The actual impact heard depends on the microphone, the bass response of the system, the distance to the sound source, and the overall volume level. Some people speak with more plosive impact than others. Condenser microphones such as the Blue Yeti are particularly sensitive to plosives because of their low frequency response and the sensitivity of the diaphragm that generates the sound in the mic. The Yeti in particular has a tremendous low frequency response and must be used with some type of "pop" filter to avoid these "thumps" if the sound source is closer than a foot or so, depending on the volume of the source. A foam pop filter is often used on hand-held mics, but these can slightly degrade high-frequency response. For studio or desktop mics, a fine fabric or metal screen is used. Though these, particularly some metal ones, can modify the sound slightly, this is preferable to the harsh thumps created by plosives. Another benefit of pop filters is that they also prevent small droplets of "spit" from entering the microphone. When you're dealing with a mic that costs hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars, this is very important.

Well it works very poorly on the yeti, looks cool but not functional. I'd recommend another pop-filter.

Yes indeed, the "blue" pop filter is a universal pop filter that will work with any mic. I myself use a Samson mic with this filter.

Pop filter, yes. You could always just put your hand in front of your mouth. Poop filter, that's up to you. Depends on how messy you get.

The pop filter is really not designed to be mounted into the bottom of the Yeti Mike. It is easily attached to the right side of the horseshoe legs that go to the base if you fully open the clamp on the pop filter and then tighten it with the screw on the front side. It will slide to the right side until tight and be at a slight angle but will be very secure and not get in the way of anything. I travel with it in my back pack and record with my lap top on the other side of the world and put it on and take it off all the time.

I am looking to purchase this as well, but I do know that pop filters in general doesn't eliminate the p's and s' it only filters it (smooths it out) I plan on layering mines with the pop filter that came with my baby bottle Mic, with the pop in front if that and possibly with a wide screen stocking type one in front of the pop. now this may be over kill but hey it's my experiment.

Hi Jon, I have a different pop filter so I'm not really sure but from the pictures it looks like you would need to remove the clamp and it should screw into the bottom of the mic. If not, maybe there is a telephone number you could call for customer service. Sorry I can't be of better help. Good luck.

I guess it depends on the type of clamp you have for the pop filter it could be possible although it's not recommended to mount your pop filter to the shock mount that way the band's absorb any of the vibration instead of the clamp holding the filter. My pop filter is mounted to my swing arm for example.

If you wanna use it indoor, a pop filter is enough, this one is ideally large for the yeti. Foam has similar properties but is way more useful outside to reduce blowing noises like the wind.

They make this exact pop filter designed for table tops its not too heavy or shouldnt be too heavy. Im not sure if this will work for the table top

Absolutely not. The Blue Yeti has a somewhat unique mounting system, which requires a specialized shock-mount 'ring'. This mount is designed to work with a large number of condenser style microphones with a screw-on back end. Blue makes the Radius shock-mount for this very purpose. I'm afraid that while the Yeti is a lovely microphone, you pay for the high-quality/low-cost in the form of incompatibility with most third party mounting options.

Not at all. I have my pop filter screwed in to my Blue Yeti, and I have full access to the 3.5mm jack and USB port.

As a pop filter it works with all mics. The trick is mounting.The pop filter comes with the adjustable metal arm and a basic clamp mount. Works great on a mic stand/tripod. Beyond that it can be a slight challenge

I use a flat bottom gold filter but any flat bottom ( not cone shape ) mr coffee style paper filters will work.
