    For me, I like the boom arm when podcasting when it's just me solo podcast and when I am with my cohost. The only time I use a desktop mic stand, is when I have 4 mics on the table with all 4 guests that have equal mics, they all match, and it creates a sense of unity. I don't like having a podcast group with guests, and I have a monster boom arm and myh Rode Procaster in front of me like I am Howard Stern. So to relax them and seem more casual, I use 4 Rode Podmics, simple, clean, and we all have fun.

      There's one I've seen Sean Cannel from Think Media use that comes without the clamp & Stands on the desk. It's pretty pricy but I'll link it here and you can check if there's a cheaper one that comes with that desk stand: amzn.to/2ZZoGht

    Got a mic stand with gooseneck. Its did give me some freedom (don't have to lean that much). The problen with boom arm is that its clunky. Not a great option for someone who move from city to city often.
    Also a stand fit my purpose which is setup the mic as fast as possible whenever I move from one room to one room

      So there's two types, a C-Clamp (this attaches to the side of your desk) And there's a desk standing one like the Rhode boom arm :) Which would you prefer? The C-Clamp is a lot cheaper and I use the C-Clamp

      Side tone as in like stereo where it'll play in the left ear if you make a sound on the left? If that's what you asking it's one of the buttons on the mic :)
