Theoretically There should be like 34 inches between the pop filter and Mic and then like 34 inches between you and the filter . I stay close as shit to mine and just go over my vocals a lot <| sep |> Because a Belief is a rediculously broad catagory akin to to the catagory of Stuff . On one level everything might be concidered a belief . Saying that people have belief in science tends to be true , but trivially so . This questions almost always are not raised for any philosophical value , but instead , for some political equivocation aka I have faith in my religion and you in science . Trying to equivocate belief with the well understood and documented expansion of the Universe is at best ignorant and trivially correct , and at worst intellectually dishonest .
