Do I need a microphone arm?
Not essential, but recommended. The included stand elevates the mic, but an articulated arm lets you bring it closer to your mouth and reduces desk vibrations.
Which polar pattern for video calls?
Cardioid. It captures sound from the front and rejects lateral and rear noise. It's the most suitable for solo voice recording.
