    It depends on your tubing and fitting choices, if your doing hardline you will require hardline compression fittings. The standard is 2 fittings per component and it's a good idea in hardeline setup to add in a drain valve.

    I'd rather have to be stupid close to my mic than being kick from groups or muted because people can hear the sound of me blinking.

    I believe you can pivot it to any angle

    Yes, think of it as ling a singers microphone, pointing straight at you, pref less than 6" from your mouth,
     
    Most of these mics have a "proximity" effect and you will get bassier as you move closer - giving you a nice radio sounding voice  i think 2-4" is a good distance,
     
    Think of the top of the mic as having a cone that it picks you up from, if you move your head to the side you need to rotate so you are still speaking into the mic

    I use a rode PSA1 but there are some budget options from companies on amazon that will be ok, those mics arent too heavy so will be ok on budget ones from like neewer etc

    Shock mounts isolate the mic from the surround area, so imagine your mic is on a mic arm mounted to your desk, you tap your foot on the floor, the vibration goes through your desk, up the mic arm and vibrates the mic housing causing a sound - a shock mount suspends the mic on rubber straps that dampen this, and effectively isolate the mic from bumps knocks and taps etc
     
    You can get XLR to USB cables for the Shure


    Dont forget a dynamic needs to be like 1-2" from your mouth so if you cant be bothered with that, get a mod mic - though its not 100% isolating

    Apologies, I thought you originally posted about the 2020

    Yes that would be a good option, the shure sm58/57 is a good option around that price too

    Dont forget to get a shock mount and arm for best results
     
    Also the uni directional mod mic, its okay for skyping etc but its not really recording quality though it can sound ok as it does in my review that I did

    no its not, its a condenser mic with a cardiod pick up pattern

    Something like a dynamic mic that has a super cardioid pick up pattern ideally
