- Controls ambient space around the mic
- Creates intimate sound field
- Delivers cleaner, more articulated, voice track
- Allows you to add ambiance as needed
The Primacoustic VoxGuard is a high performance ambient noise absorber designed to surround the microphone and reduce unwanted sounds from contaminating the recording. This nearfield absorber works by creating an acoustic boundary around the microphone that at once contains the voice while eliminating room reflections.
Unlike other similar offerings that employ complex steel parts that are both heavy and cumbersome, the VoxGuard is light weight and extremely easy to use. It starts with a high-impact ABS outer surround shell that snugs onto the mic stand using an included adapter to hold it in place. The light weight design makes positioning the VoxGuard easy without the usual fear of the stand falling over which could ultimately damage the microphone.
This makes the VoxGuard effective when used with round base stands, tripods and even with large studio booms. Once mounted, an innovative rear access cable port allows the microphone to be articulated and directed at a specific source, thus enabling the VoxGuard to also be used as an acoustic screen.
The acoustic magic is performed by a high-density open cell acoustic foam liner. This effectively absorbs the voice range while keeping room ambiance out to produce a dry rendering. This is particularly important when attempting to record in rooms with less than ideal acoustics or in noisy spaces. Since the VoxGuard is 50% larger than comparable products, noise flanking is significantly reduced and performance vastly improved.
The VoxGuard is ideal for recording studio vocals, voice-over tracks for film and TV post production, pod casting and field reporting.
*** Micro not included
The VoxGuard is a near field vocal screen designed to reduce the ambient field around a microphone when recording. It substantially reduces off-axis room reflections from entering the mic capsule for a more isolated and focused sound. This allows the engineer to reintroduce digital effects during post production.
The VoxGuard is unique in that it is larger than competitive products while being lighter. This makes it more stable on mics stands and boom extensions opening the door to a wide array of applications like acoustically shielding (gobo) instrument mics from loud amplifiers, portable desktop pod-casting and interviews, mounted on a fish pole boom for recording sound effects or for use on all types of mic stands.
The VoxGuard attaches to a mic stand with the supplied threaded mic stand adaptor. An cable access port allows the mic cable to pass through while allowing the microphone to be articulated for optimum positioning.
