Which Microphone Type to Use for Your Livestream

Christian Karasiewicz — Mon, 12 Apr 2021 00:00:00 -0500

Are you using the right type of microphone when you are live streaming? There are different types of microphones and depending on the sound that you are going for, you will want to be sure you pick the right one.

On this episode, Christian Karasiewicz and Jim Fuhs dive in on helping you determine which microphone type to use when you go live.

Internal Microphones
Built into computers and mobile devices, usually have limited capabilities
Lapel Microphones (Lavalier mic)
Great for use with mobile devices, tripod with cameras
Clip-on to your person.
Types of lapel microphones: Power Dewise, Rode Wireless Go II, Rode Smartlav+, BOYA by M1
Cardioid Microphones
Cardioid microphones isolate unwanted ambient sound, as well as any other unwanted sounds from the back of the microphone. Such microphones are the most common choice for live streaming, as they block the surrounding noise, for instance, from a loud fan or the clatter of your mechanical keyboard.
Often need a booster or cloudlifter
Types of cardioid microphones: Shure SM7B,
Dynamic Microphones
Dynamic mics work best to record loud sounds. Unlike condensers, they use a wire coil inside the microphone to amplify signal picked up by the diaphragm. The output is considerably lower than a condenser, which is appropriate when the signal you're capturing is already very strong.
Types of dynamic microphones: Samson Q2U USB / XLR Microphone, Shure MV7, ATR-2100
Condenser microphones
Condenser mics are delicate and are used to pick up and amplify more delicate sounds. Condensers use phantom power, or power from an external source (usually 48V sent from the preamp) to create their characteristically high output.
Types of condenser microphones: Blue Yeti, Audio Technica AT2020

Thank you for joining us for episode 56 of the Launch Your Live podcast where we discussed which microphone type to use for your livestream.

Internet Speed For Live Streaming, How Fast Do You Need?

Christian Karasiewicz — Mon, 17 Aug 2020 00:00:00 -0500

Live streaming doesn’t work without stable Internet. How do you make sure that you are prepared when you go live? On this episode, Christian Karasiewicz and Jim Fuhs discuss what Internet speed you need for live streaming.

Here are some best practices to help improve your Internet speed for live streaming.

Before you start measuring your speed, restart your computer.

Next, be sure you close any applications or browser tabs that you don’t need for your live streams. They take up resources your system needs. One tool we use to save our tabs is OneTab, a Google Chrome extension.

You should also consider hard-wired versus WiFi.

If you are going to be mobile, you need a 4G at minimum. 3G limits your ability to stream and screenshare at the same time.

Also keep in mind whether you will be streaming from your house, business, a hotel, using a hotspot, etc.

Next, be sure you check your upload versus download speeds. Upload speed is the most important. You can check your speed at Speedtest.net.

Here are the recommended Internet speeds. At minimum, you need 3 megabits per second. 5Mbps is ideal. If you want to stream in 4K, you need at least 25Mbps.

If your Internet is not fast enough, consider lowering the quality of your broadcast under 1080p or 720p in your live streaming software.
