What's that little screen in front of a microphone for? Is it so people don't spit on the mic?
Don't know what I'm talking about?
Go to Apple.com and click on the new Bob Dylan video.

It breaks up and disperses the breath, so the sound doesn't end up on the recording.

You replied the question your self, they're monitors to end spit, and breath from hitting the actually mic that is self. Now the spit is a minor ingredient notwithstanding the respiration isn't and IF the singers breath is able to hit the mic it may degrade the prevalent of the sound the singer is making. there are likely different causes also yet i'm truly certain the above 2 are the important ones....

It's a "pop" screen, it stops the popping sound that occurs when some people say the letter "P" and "B", when you say a "p" you blow out air, when it directly hits the microphone diaphragm it makes a popping sound.

It's called a pop filter, mostly used in studios to keep poping sounds
out like p, t, and wind sounds like s, stuff like that

It blocks there breath from being heard by the microphone.
Allows sound through, but not "wind."

It is so it will not pick up other sounds - like the wind, etc.
