Budget wise, USB mics are pretty much fine for anyone starting out and doesn't own an interface, on the other hand if you already got an interface (just like in my case, I had one laying around with phantom power) I guess it's better to go straight for an XLR one. There are a lot of budget XLR mics out there that will sound awesome without much trouble.

XLR matched with a behringer xenyx usb mixer is wonderful. I use the Rhode Procaster and have plenty of clean gain to get a good signal out. Taking time to understand mixing and audio balance is worth the headache! Love your content as always!

I use the Blue Yeti on the Compass arm (aka the Yeticaster) and I think it's pretty great. The audio quality changed dramatically from what I was using before (Turtle Beach headset.. gotta work with what you have lol). I love it. My viewers love the change in quality too. USB mics have come such a long way in recent times to the point that you probably don't need to be shilling out several hundo... at least not in the beginning. Sure, an XLR would be the 'endgame' result but for now, my mic and set up, I love it and so do my viewers and if they're happy, i'm happy!

I personally use a Razer Seiren Mini for my streams. I was really surprised how good it sounds with only a 50 euro pricetag. It has a hypercardioid pick-up pattern, so after putting on some filters in OBS you cannot hear my mech keyboard AT ALL, and I'm still using it on my desk. So I'd highly recommend it to people that have a very small budget like I do

ah hh you have the exact same USB and XLR mics as I do. Thanks for this vid! I move around a lot when I stream so I prefer the condenser (AT2020) as it pics me up nearly a foot away (I do have a very quiet studio though). I found the podmic dropped out if I moved my head to the side even a little. Plus USB is just easier when I don't need the podcaster for sound effects etc.

I have to say that I find it strange that you say you have to turn your fan off when using the USB/Condenser mic. I stream with a Blue Yeti Nano, use noise reduction/filtering and generally have no complaints about the clarity of voice and that's with me huffing and puffing with a heart rate of 160bpm, running two fans and riding a bicycle on a Wahoo Kickr 16 that howls like someone just stepped on hound of hell's goolies.

I guess it depends what you mean by "real content" I think you are more meaning that it isn't your style or genre of stream you want to create right?

I explain that in my best games to stream video that it won't be for everyone and show how to check categories themselves. Good luck! hope it helps!

I don't believe a cheap XLR set up will sound better than a usb. xlr become better when you want to reach a certain level (that you don't need in your case). And by the way, when testing a usb mic, to be fair, you should not just plug and record. With voice meter banana you can add effects (echo +-;tone +-, a 15 band equaliser...) then also check the result after applying the filters you usually use. usb mics come from another world (Skype, games...) that's why the industry is snobby about them. But since the same brands are building both usb and xlr these technologies will get closer and closer. Some are even offering a double plug (xlr or usb). When you test mics, please add what cable and audio interface you use and which filters you apply. It helps to see ou the mic sounds and to compare with other reviews. Keep up the great work, your videos are full of super useful infos 👍👍

I’m a wee bit scared that I’ve messed up the growth in my channel. I have 44 followers but I can’t tell if they’re all people I know, which a few of them for sure are. For my first week how do you think I’m doing

what's your opinion about the hyperx solocast? it's a 60$ microphone so it's more of a budget version, but it seems pretty good for it's price
@StreamScheme
@StreamScheme 2 жыл бұрын
I'd recommend the Samson Q2U for a budget mic, that will last you a long time, and give you much better noise shielding. hyperx solocast like every cheap condenser microphone just picks up everything and is VERY tough for streaming.

@StreamScheme
@StreamScheme 3 жыл бұрын
everyone prefers different sounds, A and B are very natural tones with treble from my voice being left in, D has the same treble as well but C I have removed a lot of it due to the PodMic adding too much for my tastes

Doing a blind sound test and then waiting 10+ minutes before revealing which tests were which mics without replaying the tests was annoying, having to scrub back and forth to hear the test and the corresponding mic was not fun.

I have a vtuber channel on KZbin and Twitch and will soon be adding Facebook to that I will be multi-streaming to them soon too, the mic I have is the Elgato Wave 3 there are often other noises near by that sometimes are and sometimes aren't heard in my streams and edited videos that I post to KZbin. What mic would you recommend for me or is the Elgato Wave 3 good enough?

As you can guess, there are a lot more people watching English streams but also a lot more English speaking competition. It might also be harder for you to speak fluent English and be entertaining, I don’t know your situation obviously. Speaking your own language means less competition but also a ceiling for growth eventually. It might be easier to speak it and be entertaining at least. These are the trade-offs of speaking English vs your own, and at the end of the day you just have to do what you’re comfortable with and use the right tags/language settings so people can find you. Good luck!

I've recently picked up the goxlr and a mic for it, I was curious do you need different audio sources in obs like when you use voicemeeter or do you just use your desktop or mic audio as a source and the goxlr mixes everything else for you? I know you disable any other audio sources and have it listed under the mic/auxiliary section. I just want to make sure the stream hears whatever I hear.
@StreamScheme
@StreamScheme 3 жыл бұрын
So if you run all your routing in the GoXLR to the broadcast stream mix then you just need the 1 source. Except for alerts, etc depending on how you have them set up. That said, I have separated my Chat Mic source in GoXLR and added that as an individual source for OBS, unrouted it from my broadcast mix as well, that way I have my audio recorded on an individual track for editing later.
