Paul, yes, I have used the better Reflexion Filter with success for several years with my ribbon mic (for recording wind instruments). As Scott says, there are other ways to get to the same place, but mine does the job well since I do not have a full-sized sonically isolated vocal booth in my spare bedroom!

Another kind of filter to consider is a pop filter. These can be had for maybe $30, or just stretch pantyhose tightly over a grid a few inches in front of the mic to prevent vocal pops into a mic.

WARNING: pay careful attention to the center of balance adjustments when mounting the Reflexion Filter and mic. With a heavier condenser and shock mount, the placement has to be just right, or a nudge will knock the whole thing over.
