What microphone do streamers use?
We cross-checked the 74 setups that list a microphone to see which models repeat and who uses each one.
The Shure SM7B is almost a standard: it is dynamic, so it picks up little room noise, but it needs an interface with plenty of gain (Focusrite Scarlett, GoXLR). USB mics like the Blue Yeti are the easy starting option.
