Mic Popping

Posted by Yuka as AV

Recently I did a union gig for a corporate show. I was the A2 and I didn’t really know the A1 but he was having a good deal of problems with his podium mics popping. He fiddled around in his rack for a bit (he had an analogue rig) and a few moments later he had quite effectively cancelled out all of the popping. When I inquired what he had done to achieve this he said he put a limiter on them. Unfortunately that was all I could get out of him. So I’m wondering if any of ya’all know this technique or have any other tricks for cleaning up a popping mic?

Cheers
