And I slowly improved my stream by following your tips. I don’t even have a camera, that’s some stuff for the future and I’m really excited! It is crazy how many people come into the stream and ask questions about things, you always talk about and I assume as normal. Thank you Harris, keep it up. I will for sure, I’m excited to start using all of your camera tips in the future!

You made some very good points on where to spend money and where not to until you are making something on your venture. You made a difference in my approach, which I am not a Streamer or anything with Video. I am a Blogger, but the concept is still the same. I want to add a video to my blog, but I am just at the beginning stage and do not need anything more than what I have. Eventualy I will add other things, but for now not adding things I do not need is a good idea. If I do anything it will be on increasing my writing skill set. Thanks for your suggestion in this video it was very impactful for me.

I recently ordered a fifine k678 cardioid mic! ( I know it's nothing too crazy) but for me is a big deal and big step for my streams!

4:27 my favourite part thanks Harris I've recently purchased the Shure sm7B and could have easily gone for the podmic but I had enough money to choose from both and have plenty of time to upgrade to a camera later, although I haven't watched the video all the way through yet I think that audio is very important as it's the most noticeable thing and camera quality can easily be changed from greenscreen and good lighting, being a person who loves the sound industry in music I love the warm bass from this microphone and can hear so much of a different in comparison to a yeti mic

@donaldendsley6199 3 жыл бұрын

Good Quality audio is essential. the point he's making is that for similar money you can get the cheaper mic + invest in some education so that you can make a cheaper mic sound better, then when you are ready to upgrade you have the knowledge to make that mic sound even better. It's applied knowledge not gear that makes someone great. It's the basic economic principle "Invest in yourself first."

@@donaldendsley6199 yes, I do agree as I finished watching the video, but if you're doing it as a hobby the principle still stands that you can have fun and doesn't even matter what you have but rather who has it and knows how to use it, I only got a better mic as I'm not making money but by the time I am I don't need to make a finical bust

I can't remember who but someone did a video on this very question and that was basically what can't of it. You have the opportunity to grow faster with exposure across multiple platforms and you'll likely direct all of them to your KZfaq at some point for videos which means if there's a power shift in streaming you will not only have grown faster, but be able to transition easier. Hope that helps

Thanks as always for the content Harris. I took you advice when I started last year on Twitch - I have a couple hundred recurring subs now, that's down to your advice. However the transition to YT has been very difficult - I learned to edit, done courses, spent more time that I care to admit on videos to get a few hundred views, maybe 1k tops. I have networked, made friends with some of the worlds biggest streamers and stream with them regularly. I have reinvested my income into other improvements, now its time for the content itself. But I am no where near that channel being monetized, after 105 of my own videos. My last video took about 20 hours to make and was the end result of a lot of my learnings, yet it has some of the lowest views. Do you have recommendations for WHO I can pay to make better quality content for m, or where to find them? Thanks as always man, truly. You have set me on a path that, if this continues to grow, will change my entire life. PS Streambeats is amazing - Anne recommended that I stop playing other music on my stream in case I lose the channel, and you were the result as always. Life saver!

Great video. I fall into the hobbyist and $$$ category. I have the elgato lights, 4k60Pro, streamdeck XL, GoXLR, Shure MV7X, 2 PC setup, etc, etc. around 8k in gear and computers easy. I'm a full time remote software Dev though, and make good money. I don't push hard though, I just love tech and I like streaming for fun. Only 16 followers for now on Twitch, but I don't even advertise or post anything to Social Media, I just hop on, have fun regardless if anyone watches. One day, I want to get to the point that I am streaming to teach coding or something, but in the meantime, I am happy with just having fun, playing some games, and not even worrying about the fact I have all this gear and spent this much money over the last couple of years without making any return monetarily. My thing is, it provides enjoyment to me and happiness, and that is worth more than any amount I could make by getting large. I still love watching your videos though and learning things here and there. Keep up the great work! I know many will say its completely overkill to have basically what the large streamers have and not go full ham at it, but at 31 years old, I've learned happiness and having fun is worth more than any money one could get from stuff like this. I guess having a good job helps too because I don't have to worry about money in that regard to make a living at it.

For me, the best investment I made was buying a Shure MV7 which improved my sound quality 1000%. The next thing I did was buy a RodeCaster Pro, which for me as I transitioned from streamer to Podcaster, was a huge investment in saving me time for post-production audio processing (savi. The last upgrade was my Sony A5100. Luckily a couple of weeks ago Best Buy got some back in stock and I was able to get one. Never be afraid to bet on yourself but like Harris is advising you can have $1500 worth of equipment but if you do not invest in creating good content then what do you really have? What is successful for someone else may not necessarily be for you but you can take their blueprint and modify it to work in a way that's best for you.

You come up with some fantastic statements that I quote and credit often, thanks for all the hard work. You have saved myself days in research, and I am always looking forward to your new material. One more Q: Are you planning on making any content on "making offline content", meaning techniques and hardware used by your employee (Sam) and yourself to generate the content? Im always looking for tips and tricks to save time and maximize post production time.
