Are the mics really that sensitive that they pickup physical bumps, etc of the table? I've always wondered why the mic is often supported by springs/elastic bands inside those holders.
They sure do. It can be really bad.

With a shock mount on an articulated arm you can place the mic exactly where you want it to be and still sit/stand at a desk. And you can easily move it out of the way when you are not using it.
Yes they do pick up a lot of noise that’s why I bought an arm for mine
@Dashrender normal typing sounded like thunder
@JaredBusch
Is that a Blue Yeti USB mic? I've seen that they, at least in the past, been a popular choice for people wanting a good mic on a budget. -

If you want good isolation, one of the isolation mounts would be necessary. I can't see from that picture where the mic stand is actually mounted, probably not on the desk knowing @JaredBusch.

yeah, he's close enough to the wall, that might be an option for him. Good call.
