Budget Streamer Gear – What You NEED To Buy First?
Budget Streamer Gear – What You NEED To Buy First?
I have bought a lot of gear in my job as a filmmaker, content creator, and now as a Streamer… and a lot of it has gathered dust as well, because of this I have learned my lesson… for the most part…
Today I am covering the BEST streamer gear purchases you should be making and in what order to grow your stream… while sticking to a budget!

Why Should You Upgrade A Microphone First?
We are assuming that you have a PC that can run a decent stream quality, then the most important purchase is a good microphone, if someone drops by and you are streaming 720p or even 480p they are usually okay with it, but if your audio hurts their ears or doesn’t sound right I promise you they will leave.
There are plenty of affordable USB mics that sound amazing, and you can take them to even better heights when you apply the right filters that are free and come with OBS and Slobs, our recommendation in this video is the Samson Q2u.

What Are The Best Webcams and Lights For Streamers?
Your lighting is really what is going to make or break your webcam or camera quality, you can get some cheap LED panels from Neewer 90W or the Dazznee D50’s Panels are great as well.
I use the Logitech C922 Pro, and then use these little LED light panels to light myself.
This little light is enough to light my face, and then I manually set my webcam settings which you really should be doing as well, slap a custom LUT I made for myself to make the colours look nice, and we’re good to go.
The lights behind me aren’t as bright so I stand out and they make the background look nice, which is important. You should try to make your background look nice or look at grabbing a cheap green screen.
The style of this video is similar to Alpha Gaming and Gaming Careers in parts. A large influence on this series has come from content creators like Wild4games and Nutty.

I have an SM58 and a Behringer UMC202HD with a cloud lifter.
Wow, this video is incredibly informative! I learned so much from watching it. Thanks for sharin
I cannot trust videos with affiliate links
Rode mic or shure mv7 for gaming/ PlayStation 5?
Thanks for trying to help but they’re way better videos out there
Please stop saying dollarydoos…please..🙏
Haha I’m at break right now but the bear can been thrown at your head had me laughing haha😂 3:22
The sm7b is a dynamiv
Also can the blue yeti microphone be used on a console
I’m just looking for something to use when recording my 2k videos, I watch official jerv and his mic is clear sounding
Say dollary doo again and I’ll find you and tickle you❤😂🎉😊
thanks cobba 🙂
Had the Q2U for 7 months now it’s perfect
i feel like this really isn’t a budget setup, there are mic arms, cameras, and lights that do the job very well for a total beginner on a budget that are less than $100, like idk the idea of spending $100+ per piece of equipment here doesn’t really scream budget
You’re hilarious, I would watch you selling horse manure & still have a blast! Thank you! 🔥❤😻
Then why tf are you using the sm7b
Thankyou man. This helped me alot.
Did you call Australian dollars "dollar-e-doos"? I can but cannot believe that 😂
I would recommend getting a cheaper, but stable mic arm, and then getting a shock mount to prevent hearing the vibrations from your desk. That’s going to be 60% less money than a super expensive, on-brand mic arm.
is there any cheaper mics to get started? its £86 in the UK for te one you recommended and I was thinking something under £50 that’s more for recording than streaming.
If you start out using a dynamic microphone like showcased do you then also recommend using a popfilter? Or is that unnecessary? 🤔😊
Jesus christ shut and speak haha your comedy is lame.
Can the microphone you mentioned be used for console and if so what would I search up
How is that webcam a budget camera at that price lol how much are the high ends if that’s a budget lol
For the microphone the feelworld pm1 xlr and usb with very good audio it also comes with a very good ans silent stand for 100$
Thank me later😊🎉
Hey #EarlyGang! Hope you’re having a great week so far! What gear do you love, what do you regret buying? I am sure lots of you have the mics I referenced today, and love them! Hope you understand why I don’t always recommend them for their price and type! Also, I flubbed and saying 5600k and not 4600k for my lighting colour.

what do you guys think about the am8?
*Video Paused* I didn’t see the mic yet but I could swear you are building up to the SM58 😂
Dollarydoos😂😂😂😂
How important is to have a video capturer?
okay but what camera are you using for this video ?
Thank you for the help. I let you know how it good.
My parents said if I hit 60k they’d buy me a professional camera begging you guys literally begging!!!
I am 20 year pro sound engineer. If you can record with a build in head set mic. It’s more about the personality than. The content or quality or the gear. 😂😂😂😂❤
You should really consider Fifine K688 and other fifine models. It’s one of the best price/performance microphone with both USB-C and XLR interface. I think at the start 70 dollars for both USB-C and XLR interface is huge deal. You can use it as USB mic at the start then, upgrade it with XLR power. Also other Fifine mics are much cheaper and has lower price than expected.
i just tape my flashlight to my old mic stand ☠️
You dicked around too long. Turned you off.
Hello everyone, I’m on here to see if I can get some help connecting my Scarlett 2i2, Shure SM7B (w/Cloudlifter) onto my ps5. My 2i2 has a cable USB C Type (2i2 side) to regular USB (ps5 side)
For some reason when I got to settings>sound>input device it still says ‘Microphone on Controller’ no matter where I connect the 2i2. I’ve tried using C type to C type cables as well & still nothing. I’ve tried a regular Shure mic & still no luck. I know there’s some reason why I can’t get it to work, just don’t know what I’m doing
What the scallywag? Hear in the U S of A our quads casts are 80 buckery boos
Frank Reynolds in the back 👍
Dollareee doos
This is good but I was just looking for a webcam and a mic but I can’t spend that much. Could you make a budget friendly casual gamer setup?
XLR won’t we need the interface to? I think that was left out
own3d is gas 🔥
If im using a green screen ,what are the lights that you would recommend me ?
Man that opener was fantastic…Good Information earned a full watch.

searched over and over on your page but didnt notice the lighting guide or guide to get the best results from the dazzne d50s
But… you’re using a 7MB… 😁😄(and I’m using the RE20). In a few months most will be looking to ditch the Samson (not saying its bad, but…) for a Rode Podmic, PD-70 or a MV7.
