Everything You Need to Know About Shock Mounts

Stable Mic Positioning
A shock mount isolates a microphone from stand-borne vibrations, helping to keep recordings clean and free from handling noise, footfall and rumble. It is especially useful for vocals, acoustic instruments and spoken word sessions.
