I'm using that cheap Amazon arm with my Rode Podmic. It's been several years, and it works so well I can't justify getting a new arm... It had a Blue Yeti on it before that.
Thank you so much. I am starting to stream on Monday and I have been scared for years but all of your videos have gave me the confidence to do it! All of your videos and tips I will be absolutely using! 🙏🏽
How’s streaming going I’ve been wanting to as well for years I’m getting a good set up and gonna grind gta rp til gta 6 rp come out and gonna grind until I blow up
For your camera you might wanna get a set of ND filters or a variable ND filter so you can reduce the light getting onto your sensor, so you can decrease your shutter speed to make your cam appear less choppy. Make sure to set your ISO as low as possible though. If you stream in 30p ---> Shutter speed should be 1/30s. If you stream in 60p it should be 1/60s. Having slower shutter will make your video brighter so you will probably need ND filters even with minimal ISO. You can also use a polarizing filter to dramatically reduce reflections if you wear glasses for example. Have fun streaming.
I do agree with you on the usefulness of ND filters. However you got the shutter speed to frame rate numbers 100% wrong. You should using a shutter speed that is twice the FPS of the captured video or a 180 degrees shutter angle. Or to put it another way @30fps you need a 1/60th shutter speed, @60fps you need a 1/120th shutter speed, @240fps (slow motion capture) you need 1/480th shutter speed. Following the 180 rule will give you a more cinematic look and be more pleasing to the eye. Also keep in mind there are 2 frame rates you are concerned with. First is the speed that you are capturing from the camera. The second is the frame rate of the stream. You might have a camera that is capturing 60fps but the stream is only going to the platform at 30fps. The speed that you can capture, encode and upload is a more complex topic. Provided you have enough light to follow the 180 rule. The ND filter allows you to control exposure when you have fixed your ISO as low as it will go and your shutter speed at 2x the captured frame rate. One place that ND filters are vital is taking long exposures in full sunlight. Most home studios don't have enough light to need an ND filter. With 6 17w LED bulbs my streaming setup is not bright enough for 1/120th and iso 50 (the lowest my camera supports). I end up using the ISO to control exposure at the expense of image noise.
@@EthosAtheos Well you will need NDs with bigger sensor sizes, as the generally capture more light espeically with good lenses, which let more light pass through to said sensor. You usually also want to match framerates. If you only streaming in 30p there is no point in your camera capturing 60p.
I actually use one of those cheap microphone boom-arms for my webcam, rather than sitting it on top of my monitor. Makes it super easy to position it wherever you want/need it to go.
I sak this video befors sleeping and im thinking to start streaming, this helps alot and will help me save alot of time searching for good webcams and mics
Thanks! What makes it stand out to you? Is it the vlog-style let's check this out together while I give some info feel? I really wanna improve so anything you think of is helpful! :) Thanks for watching
Tip for New streamers: don't buy expensive gear, if you have expensive gear it dosent mean your gonna have a 1000 viewers on a Day or week its better to buy a budget streaming setup and then upgrade to a better setup (learned this from a famous streamer)

love your videos and most of my configs are using your videos, would love to see some budget ideas for desk, decorations, and cable management, already have a part of my cable management and decoration, and my desk after I move into our new place will be an IKEA build from 2 or 3 drawers and I think a kitchen top, but will love to see your ideas :) cheers. love the quality of your videos from the first one I saw to current one :)
I redecorated my room recently and was stuck for a while on what to do for a desk. Managed to get a kitchen breakfast bar worktop which was damaged so was going to be getting thrown out by the company. I ended up paying £30 for it and turns out the size I needed meant I could cut off the damaged section. So now I have a perfectly good desk which only cost £30 + the two IKEA Alex drawers I already had
@@PTR2K yes Peter, was looking for a gaming desk, but saw that they are very expensive for what they offer, that's why my choice is IKEA kitchen top and drawers, more robost. And more cheap...
@@merdarlucian-pavel2834 yeah I was looking at IKEA but they didn’t sell the size I needed sadly. I managed to work something out at least but the IKEA desks and worktops are very good I’m not sure if you have seen them but IKEA actually partnered with ASUS RoG to create an entire gaming line. The have a gaming desk but it’s too big for the space I have so I couldn’t get it 🙁
Every video I’ve seen is hard to stay focused on for me. This was hella informative and I was so invested in this video. I have subscribed and will follow your videos because I want to stream!!!
Great video. Very helpful. I’m just curious about how you were able to get such clean looking shots of your screen. When you were demonstrating what buttons to click on your computer you were sharing your screen somehow or recording your screen somehow I don’t believe you were doing that with a camera. How are you doing it?
Can you setup the stream deck to mute your microphone on discord for example while keeping it active on the stream so you can talk to the viewers without disturbing the people you play with?
Yes, the stream deck can mute different applications while keeping others active. You can even set up push to talk or push to mute. Same with the discord deafen function.
Get a good audio interface and a midi controller that fits your needs best and you will save a lot of money. (and you don't need any additional software, just OBS)
I love this set up so much! Spent a lot of today setting everything up. Only issue I'm having is the headset. Is there an easy way to switch from headset to system speakers and back? I don't normally use a headset continually through my day. For instance, when I'm gaming and not streaming, I prefer system speakers.
I have that cheap mic arm as one of the two that I have. The clamp on it definitely sucks, but if you have a cheap, lighter mic like one from Zingyou then it's more than strong enough.
Hey, can you make a video about the Blue Yeti and Logitech GHUB? Basically we can now use Blue Voice there and GHUB has a built in compressor.. gain option.. limiter.. everything.. Thanks!
Sup dude. Been watching your vids for a while . Build 2 pc with your guidance. One for my kid, where he plays specially Ark and 1 for myself for streaming..... mine is ... let's say it sucks😅😅 Not enough money for the new parts .... my question: where can I buy all the parts YOU discard??🤣✌️ Peace out Keep up the good work
This might be a really dumb question, but if I wanted to use this set up to stream my Xbox gameplay, would the HDMI from my Xbox into the monitor in the middle? Or would I have to use a tv on the side of the setup?

Keyboard get kreo hive keyboard 75% and a volume knob for real cheap
mouse get a G304

Mousepads are real cheap with real good designs it does not matter really
follow ztt 750$ pc guide but replace GPU with 6700XT or rx 7600 cuz you will be using 1080p anyway
get a 144hz monitor for main and a normal cheap 1080p monitor for other stuff
that is it basically it...
