Agreed Noah!

And about the BAS screens! I stopped running them because they would deteriorate and then super small particles were getting ALL over the place, so I definitely didn't want them touching my mics at that point! And no matter WHAT you do to them or how you store them, the BAS will fall apart and deteriorate over time. Period. And if you don't think that yours are shedding yet, just put a piece of white printing paper under the BAS and just give them gentle squeezes, and more than likely, you'll see a million TINY particles that fell out of the screen!

That's how you can tell if your BAS are still good or not! If your BAS are still good, then you WILL NOT see any particles on the white paper underneath of the screens! However, if you see a bunch of tiny particles on your white paper, I'd toss them in the garbage immediately before they can get into the grill of your capsules. I would NOT WANT those particles getting inside of my caps, that's for damn sure ;)
