Auralex MudGuard sound reflection filter

I needed a simple and affordable solution and the Auralex Mudguard came through with flying colors. Please note this is in no way a total solution but for my needs (voice over for video training series - recorded in my office) this fits the bill perfectly. Combine this with the outstanding customer service from Sweetwater and and I couldn't be happier! Gary Coles - Marketing Coordinator

Great for the price

You can't beat it for the price-works great. If you get a bad recording with it, you pretty much don't know what the heck you're doing.

A big improvement for any home studio

This made a very noticable difference in my vocal tracks. They are much cleaner now and seem to have a fuller dynamic range then before. This is a great addition to any home studio that doesn't have the budget or room for a vocal iso booth. I highly recommend it.

Great product for any studio!!!!

This is a GREAT product!!!... I did a before and after vocal track with the Mudguard and you can CLEARLY hear the difference. The only reason I didnt give it a five was the instructions are not that thourough and took some guesswork. If you are thinking of buying this product...dont wait another day!!!!!!

MudGuard is good.

I love this thing. It improves the sound/cancels noise really well for something so small & inexpensive.

Great addition to the studio

The MudGuard really does help to reduce early reflections in the studio. We hang ours upside down (so the Auralex logo is now also upside down) to lower the center of gravity. You'll want a heavy duty stand (or a second stand devoted to the MudGuard). Also gives singers a bit of privacy :)

More than worth the money.

I'd been working on my first album for almost 5 months and we tried everything BUT a mic shield to improve the sound of the vocals. Once we added the MudGuard, wow: night and day difference. This small investment was worth every penny. My collaborators and I are already considering getting one or two more for our next project. There are more expensive mic shields than this one: don't bother. This is all you'll need.

Surprisingly Good!

If you don't record in a large studio complex that's fully treated and lovely, check this thing out. I had my doubts but it honestly ended up being awesome. It will bring clarity to your recordings and decrease your noise level immensely.

The mudGuard

It works well - it helps with sound in a room which isn't padded. Studio quality? Not really, but it's worth every dime to help with sound reproduction in a home set up.

A bit awkward in a small room, but managable and well worth the trouble.
Installation is simple, but not such that it can be switched to another mic without tools and time -- two mics - two mudGuards. Fortunatly they are not expensive.

“I can talk to my Sales Engineer about any piece of equipment, and he always steers me in the right direction. He truly knows what he's talking about, and he never tries to over-sell me on anything. If he worked in the Nashville area, I'd probably owe him about 20 dinners by now!”
