Aside from the iso box route you can try one of the
new devices like the SE Reflexion Filter. They've been
backordered but I'm expecting one tommorrow. I think
Real Traps now makes one too. They will mount on the
same mic stand as your condenser but form a nice
acoustic barrier between it and your noise source.
They are often recommended by Sound on Sound Magazine
to anyone who's not recording vocals in a professional
room.
