I've come to the conclusion that we're all overcomplicating our audio setups. We don't need expensive gear, intense filters, EQ, or anything else, we just need a decent microphone setup correctly. If you focus on the basics, you'll sound great, and when you sound great you'll be more confident in your videos or streams.

Difference was night and day for me swapping from my at2020 condenser to a fifine dynamic microphone since my area kinda sucks for audio. I'll still use the condenser one someday, but kinda regret not just going with the cheaper fifine from the start...especially since I wouldn't have had to buy an interface to go with it since that one is both usb and xlr.
what about the fact that some people reccomend a mic, but it needs an expensive preamp to sound good and usually you dont realise that until after you bought the expensive mic, so now you got an expensive mic, but cant afford the expensive preamp and now the mic has white noise all the time
If you have a really good audio interface you will not need a preamp. There also cheaper audio preamps nowadays I bought one from amazon to use with my Rode Podmic when I needed to get surgery and couldnt strain myself to record audio. It sucks they left out that info as that is very important information to have when buying mics
@theoutsiderjess4869 i think my volt 1 is an audio interface that also has preamp functionality i think, but it still has a ton of white noise :( cant get audio into the yellow on true peak in obs
4 years ago I was told to buy the blue yeti that was a mistake especially during covid and I didnt understand the difference between dynamic and condensers thank God I found actual audio channels and not sponsored youtubers soon after
Hey jay, I've always been interested in the method of recording yourself everyday for 10 minutes and checking it the next day then repeat. so I wanted to ask you to show us that video if it possible or like how would you reevaluate yourself and improve etc...
I’m using the Shure SM7B with the Roland Bridge Cast X and now use Prism Live Studio as my streaming software and everything is working perfectly what do you think of Prism Live Studio
Bro, May you please do a video on how to turn the hyper wuadcast into a good mic, i just have background in the video you will hear my controller or my partner in the background watching TV i’ve tried loads of things
He said the throatgussler 5000!! Hahahaha, this is why I love this channel. I use my RodeCaster Pro Duo and the Shure SM7B microphone. I love that combo.
Trying to find a setup that works for a couple streaming or at least one of us streaming and the other participating from another computer setup. Having trouble getting a setup that works. She has a elgato wave dx and right now i'm just using a headset mic but my voice keeps coming in over her mic. we sit facing the same direction but are about 5 feet apart. We can never find a good tutorial for this type of situation but find lots of people asking about this.
Nvidia Broadcast's noise removal does wonders for hiding background noise, like my furnace kicking in all winter or me shivering if the furnace was off.
Hi i am using headset and my microphone is pretty bad i tired audio banana and i tried using OBS but nothing work i still have buzzing sound when i speak should i buy mic separately or should i get a another headset
Opinions on the new Wave Neo mic? or just spend a little more to get the Rode Pod Mic or Wave DX? (But with those mics, I'm gonna need an audio interface like the Wave XLR) What do you guys think?
Somebody please help me.... I am having a really hard time with my microphone picking up my breathing. And I breathe sort of hard but not that hard. And my microphone just picks up every breath I take so it sounds like a breathing. Simulator when I make a video. Help
The noise gate filter should take this out, unless you're breathing as loudly as you'd be talking. If you sniffle a lot, try to limit that while recording/streaming, or add a noise filter (RTX Voice is excellent at removing sniffles) ahead of your noise gate. I'm not an expert at any of this, but just things I've found that worked for my own streaming setup.
IMPORTANT: Do not throw your brother out the window if he won't stop talking about skibidi toilet. That is a joke, and not meant to be taken seriously! 4:23
Spent 100 bucks total for my mic setup and it sounds great. Cheap fifine mic with their audio thing for xlr and boom clear audio and no echo or anything good out the box. U dont need the 300 dollar xlr interface if u just want clear audio bruh it’s seems about as important as how expensive your xlr cable is now if you want to go crazy with effects and do other things sure but most people just want to sound good.
I just use NVIDIA broadcast to remove my background sound. Probably not top tier but I’ve not had complaints. I did miss adding it the other night on stream and I could tell post
I've been using the AT-2035 for about 4 years now, and it's done fairly well. I can probably tweak the output a bit, but for the most part, it's served me well, both on stream and when doing voice acting.
I've been using the ATR 2100x for years now. Best budget mic i've ever used and does what it needs. never have an issue from any of my chatters. highly recommended
Hey Eljay thank you for this awesome video! Can I ask what about microphone picking up audio from speakers causing echoes? I know I can use headphones to eliminate this problem, but I was just wondering if there's any filters/settings to play with if I don't want to use headphones?
You need a really good dynamic mic, speakers far away from it, and a crap load of time balancing it all Essentially, the speakers need to play sound but the mic needs to be set up carefully to not catch it. So balance speaker volume and mic setup. Or wear headphones.
Woah!!!! Bro really appreciate your effort to reply your followers. I want to become a Game streamer. All of your content videos really helping other beginning streamers. Keep the good work comin..
Just to clarify the software that comes with the Elgato wave products isn’t free :) You need to buy their equipment and only use their equipment. Steelseries Sonar, and VoiceMeter are free software that does what wavelink does, can be used with any microphone. And also OBS has most of what Wave offers built in now and works with any microphone.

Ya know what’s wild, how often this happens with the Shure Sm7b
And how people buy it without understanding it is an XLR mic
@StreamScheme i got a preamp, its a volt 1 and it has so much white noise i wanna cry, my sm7db has so much noise 😢
You poor soul…
I use mine with the Roland Bridgecast, and that supplies enough but I still use a cloudlifter to help lol

I bought the Q2U because of one of your videos and it’s amazing! Well worth the money and I don’t see myself changing mics any time soon
Dude I’ve bought so many mics over the years and now I look back at them and think what a waste of money that was but it’s a cool collection.
you should donate them man (mail me one i beg)

Watch my video on 7 skills in 7 days.
That covers it.
Tthis is the video I needed today... Thank you!
I have that exact microphone with an XLR box. I'm having a very weird issue that I need to talk to somebody specifically about
I’m using the Shure SM7B with the Roland Bridge Cast X and now use Prism Live Studio as my streaming software and everything is working perfectly what do you think of Prism Live Studio
Bro, May you please do a video on how to turn the hyper wuadcast into a good mic, i just have background in the video you will hear my controller or my partner in the background watching TV i’ve tried loads of things
That’s this video

I’d buy the Samson Q2u over both options.
Why not sm58?
I’ve not used it :) I can only recommend the 3 in this video because I’ve used them.
Cool but what if I am on a PS4 or 5

Will I always smile when you say dollareedoos? Yes
i use a psa not the psa+ but i can vouch their nice arms.

My issue is I speak really softly and my walls are paper thin, so my voice sounds fine then you hear a car zoom by like its in your house
first
I'm interested in the Throat Guzzler 5,000. Wheres that one at?
Spent 100 bucks total for my mic setup and it sounds great. Cheap fifine mic with their audio thing for xlr and boom clear audio and no echo or anything good out the box. U dont need the 300 dollar xlr interface if u just want clear audio bruh it’s seems about as important as how expensive your xlr cable is now if you want to go crazy with effects and do other things sure but most people just want to sound good.
throat guzzler >_> aye yo
Stream Scheme, I love your channel so much, I just had to subscribe!
real
and what would be the best settings for the filters?
I just use NVIDIA broadcast to remove my background sound. Probably not top tier but I’ve not had complaints. I did miss adding it the other night on stream and I could tell post
I bought the Throat Guzzler 5000. It just screamed "buy me".
😂😂😂
I need that mic arm
edit: I have a low profile arm, but it's not nearly as sweet as that one
Is the Elgato LP Mic Arm any good??
Nah, sucks
Watch my video on overhyped streamer gear from a week or so ago
I've been using the AT-2035 for about 4 years now, and it's done fairly well. I can probably tweak the output a bit, but for the most part, it's served me well, both on stream and when doing voice acting.
have you stopped uploading on your gaming channel? Love your content!
No I upload weekly and stream one a week, I just don’t share the gaming channels link here because it sandbags and hurts the channel.
Yeah blue yeti great budget mic I think personally
What a great video mate.Thank you..Its great to see another Aussie with great advice.Your next beers on me.
Been watching since the garage days! Another lovely video
4:23 I wish I could
I've been using the ATR 2100x for years now. Best budget mic i've ever used and does what it needs. never have an issue from any of my chatters. highly recommended
I have the AT2020 and I love that thing. Just added a noise suppressor filter in OBS and I was good to go!
Underrated Creator right here! Love how real and funny you are man!!!
Hey Eljay thank you for this awesome video! Can I ask what about microphone picking up audio from speakers causing echoes? I know I can use headphones to eliminate this problem, but I was just wondering if there's any filters/settings to play with if I don't want to use headphones?
You need a really good dynamic mic, speakers far away from it, and a crap load of time balancing it all
Essentially, the speakers need to play sound but the mic needs to be set up carefully to not catch it.
So balance speaker volume and mic setup.
Or wear headphones.
maybe the 1st time I'm this early, good stuff
Why did u leave twitch ?
I stream to RUclips now, much better platform
Woah!!!! Bro really appreciate your effort to reply your followers. I want to become a Game streamer. All of your content videos really helping other beginning streamers. Keep the good work comin..
Using the Elgato Wave: 3 now and I love it. Free software makes it easy to control unwanted sounds.
Just to clarify the software that comes with the Elgato wave products isn’t free :)
You need to buy their equipment and only use their equipment.
Steelseries Sonar, and VoiceMeter are free software that does what wavelink does, can be used with any microphone.
And also OBS has most of what Wave offers built in now and works with any microphone.
@@StreamScheme Except it's all crap. Elgato works the best.
Just an old guy (not that old) who enjoys your content and will be trying it out this summer! Putting your opinions to the test!
