mic stand padding?

[Joey]

I cant remember the name of the product or who makes it, but I recall being in guitar center and seeing a mic stand with some kind of half hexagonal padding around the area where the mic goes, i suppose to deaden the air around it

anyway, who makes these, and are they worth getting?

it could have been auralex, but this was a specific type of padding that attached to the mic stand and wrapped around the mic in a half hexagonal shape, probably to deaden the air around it

what I want to know is who makes those things, and are they really worth looking into? or do they deaden the 'room' too much

RealTraps did some tests and says theirs beats the SE R for the same price, but whatever. i like that the PVB is bigger; just makes sense that it would block more sound. for the record, i haven't used any of these. hope this helps.
