Plosive Sounds
https://drive.google.com/open?id=1Atek-1gBML_11zdCA7JEDwHTuux6fTFq
So I have my pop filter on my mic and made couple sure to double check ever
"P" "B" and "T" sounds but this still got rejected. What am I missing with plosvies?

Hello Kenny! Thank you for participating in this Community! :-)
Unfortunately, this audio still contains considerable plosive issues :-(
Are you giving enough distance between your microphone and pop filter?
Additional quality flaw. You'll need to correct the following:
Stomach growling behind "I expected you have mastered..."
I hope the info above helps. Please let me know! ;-)
Cheers,
Oki
I've been keeping about 6 inches away. Do I need more?
I'm sorry but I forgot to ask you ; what type of pop filter are you using?

Thank you!

I'm using a Nylon Mesh
BTW I use 2 layers of nylon pop filters to record my own voice ;-) ... but even when two pop guards are utilised, I often find plosive issues in my recording.
So in the end you are the one to keep an eye on your own recording quality ;-)
Cheers,

Hi Kenny,
Just a comment from another v/o actor. I have not used a pop filter in years. Instead, I place the mic one of two places: either about forehead height aimed down about 30 degrees; or mic off to one side about 30 degrees, still aimed at my mouth area. So while I am still in the sweet spot of the microphone's pickup pattern (I'm on- axis) I am speaking past the capsule, not directly into it. Any plosives I produce go past the capsule rather than into it.
Perhaps that may help.
Best regards,
Joe Brown
Kudos to Joe for his awesome advice!! :-)
Mic placement itself is an artform ... so please experiment.
I just reviewed Kenny's newly patched VO ... while the plosive issue is more or less alleviated, we still hear the stomach growling issue :-( ... Plus, the audio sounds obviously patched (you'll need to execute patch jobs 'inaudible' or 'seamless', as if no patching is done)
Thank you! ;-)
Best regards,
Oki
