Make contact with the Mic or shake the desk to hard and it falls out of place.

Pros: holds up mic without sagging over time Isolates mic from annoying desk vibrations

This is especially true if you are using a desk-mounted microphone "Boom Scissor" mount

65% of the vibration from knocking the desk is removed

I immediately could tell the difference as I'm a pretty heavy handed typist and I tend to bump my desk a lot, but with the shock mount all of those artifacts were gone immediately and I didn't have to worry about post production.

I have a desk clipped mic stand for my Yeti and my desk is a fancy piece of particle board with particle board legs...so basically the desk wobbles
