Great problem-solver

I'm just starting out as a VO artist and can't afford a real studio yet but the Primacoustic VoxGuard has made a huge difference for me. It provides the effect of a recording booth, keeping out the extraneous sounds and making my voice tracks sound full and clean. High recommended!

Voxguard turn me spare bedroom into a recording studio.

Easy to set up. Cuts down on ambient room noise allowing me to record auditions for voice over jobs. It is lightweight and fits either on a desk mic stand or a studio boom mic stand.

Voxguard Makes Recording Vocals A Breeze

I've been having trouble recording my vocals , all there was just walls and no type of padding in my room and I would always get all these echos and distortion in my recordings until I purchased the primacoustic voxguard and now every time record my vocals they would always come out real clean and clear !!!! Thanks

Great for Bass Clarinet

We were having trouble with feedback both onstage and at rehearsals with the mics on our bass clarinet. This baffle was a simple solution that not only reduced monitor feedback, but also clarified the horn's signal by reducing the amount of drum, bass and guitar being picked up.

I'd give it 5 stars, but the extension bar for the microphone is a little too lightweight and will bend easily.

VoxGuard helped quite a bit onstage

I play concertina (an acoustic squeezebox, a sort of lap accordion) using a mike. Concertina is an ambient sound instrument: you have to catch the sound some distance away from the instrument to get its characteristic syrupy, nostalgic flavor. When accompanying loud bands onstage, it has been hard for the sound person to boost me up high enough to be heard due to feedback issues. The VoxGuard *looks* funny on stage, but it sure helps with feedback and lets them crank me up so I can hear and be heard! And the audience is motivated to move around a bit to try to see the instrument better :) Thanks!

Primacoustic VoxGuard

THE Primacoustic VoxGuard IS A GOOD PIECE OF GEAR. NOT AS GOOD NEARLY AS THE SE ACOUSTIC MIC REFLECTOR. BUT THE Primacoustic VoxGuard ONLY WEIGHS A COUPLE OF POUNDS AND ANY MIC STAND WILL WORK. WE BOUGHT THE SE EQUIVALENT WHICH IS A REAL SOUND DEADEN-ER FOR LACK OF BETTER TERMS. BUT THE Primacoustic VoxGuard FOR CERTAIN APPLICATIONS IS MORE FEASIBLE. WE HAD TO BUY A HEAVY DUTY MIC STAND WITH ROLLERS EXPENSIVE FOR THE SE REFLECTOR. THE Primacoustic VoxGuard IS A GOOD ACOUSTIC DEVICE. WE LEARNED TO TURN OUR MIC SIDE WAYS AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE AND THAT CANCELED MOST VOCAL REFLECTIONS IN THE STUDIO. TWO THUMBS UP.

Good filter

Took out some ambient noise, though not enough to create 'an entire studio.' Great for isolating a mic.

It Works...

This product is small, light weight and does not make
the mic stand unbalanced. If you are looking for it to
make your untreated room sound like a pro studio, it
will not. However, it does cut down on room reflection
and does make the recorded source seem more detailed.
My room is treated but still has a bit of reflection with a
loud source, which you can hear if you listen critically.
This unit does minimize that effect, but not everyone would
hear it. The unit is a little awkward for some mic mounts,
but since the unit is not expensive it is worth the minor
adjustment.

Comb Filter

I used this unit to try and cut down on my room reflections, just as everyone else I'm sure. The main problem is that I experienced a comb filtering effect with it at times, depending on the distance of the singer to the mic. I guess since it's thin foam on a pretty much solid back, it reflects the lows and mids back into the mic (foam doesn't tend to absorb low mids and lows very well). I tried to make this thing work, but ended up having to scrap all the vocal tracks I recorded with it. I'm gonna bite the bullet and get the sE, which should work as intended. (I hope).
