#Streaming #Gear #Twitch
Which category are you in.. you know.. for science.
Idk but big fan
love your videos dude
100% budget bros.
Idk, haven't watched the video yet. But what I do know, is that you posted this comment 5hr b4 the video. Hmmmmmmm
i feel like im more in the budget category since the only job i have so far to make money is twich so i have to spend my money wisely
We appreciate you, Harris.
You too, Sam. 😉
Okay 😂
It's funny because every time you tweet about streamers need to focus on other content this is who I think of and now I see you watch him too lol. Good stuff 👍
I appreciate you! @@scottleist
@@scottleist no... im sorry
I’ve spent way more money than I think my 13 followers would realize 0_o
Awwww
Such a relatable post hahah
@@kantoshero Well I Will do my best to check out some content of anyone tied to this thread. Always enjoy new content to watch!
especially people that watching the one, and only HH!
@@DarkraizardGaming honestly I just play games with friends and live stream it. I used to stream daily on tiktok but CZcams has my heart
Bought my Elgato in 16’ for about 160$ (started streaming if this year) , currently use a cheap earphone mics as my main mic and a iPhone 6s Plus as my webcam. :p
"you're allowed to spend money on your hobby."
Try telling my wife that.
This was informative but I don’t recall other videos taking so long to get started.
Thank you for these videos. I've been following your recommendations since I started a Twitch page a couple months ago and slowly but surely not only is it working, but I'm having fun doing it. Happy streaming, y'all! ^^
Been watching your videos for 2-3 years now. Started making $0 a month to now 4-5k. Love the vids Harris
I’ve been watching this channel since 2019 and man I can’t say thank you enough I can’t imagine the number of content creators and streamers you’ve helped in either small or significant ways, thanks for what you do my guy.
After a few months I finally have to say: thank you and your whole crew, Harris!
I hit 100 subs a few days ago on my twitch after 6 months of streaming. 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!
Thanks for the motivation and the ideas to invest
As someone new to the community, the advice you have and the way you phrase it to be digestible is invaluable to people starting out. Much appreciated!
(Also, the Stream Beats album slaps!)
Now i'm REALLY CURIOUS about that "New Tool for Streaming"
just wanna say harris heller your video channel about how to grow on twitch or youtube has a big impact, especially for myself ive been watch your video nonstop since i start streaming and struggling to be better at streaming, not only i skip all the hardwork but also learn the equipment which took many experience to learn. i really grateful found your channel at this time. could ask any much more better teacher than you. i recently just start and this a huge impact for me. even video are 11 months old i still seeing this as a growing moment for myself. i hope you keep up making video like this. i trust one day i could catch up myself like you and when ive my own channel i will never forget who i learned from and how far i could become, from this video channel on youtube. god bless -
Thanks for the great content. Your personality is really suited for your audience
Editing you're own videos is essential at least in the beginning, For CZcams you're developing your own style and hiring an editor from the jump would steal the opportunity to learn from that experience.
Love your videos bro, Motivating.
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.
Thanks again! Your help is appreciated.
Thank you so much for all of your content. I started my channels a few years ago now and had multiple hiatuses but I'm back and your advice helped along the way :) about to be working on some YT content now to get my name out there more!
you are such a legend harris , thank you so much for what you do for the community.
I know you talk a lot about Streamers branching out into CZcams to grow but what are your thoughts on CZcamsrs branching out into streaming? One of my hardest decisions is deciding if I diversify to Twitch or stream on CZcams with the audience I've already cultivated.
Try both and see what works? I don’t really see a downside other than the time spent doing it.
You have a massive following on youtube already and twitch is such a mess right now, I'd stream on youtube but diversify with twitter, instagram or tiktok so incase youtube goes down your fans can still find you. (I'm not as big as you so maybe I'm wrong tho)
@@BaxInAction I agree with you on that
I thought youtube doesn't lock you in. As long as you're not an affiliate on Twitch you can simulcast it and build on both. 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 CZcams 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
@@rexsus1gaming156 everything I see about multistreaming is it's bad in the long run, this person already has a massive audience and would probably benefit more from direct interactions with their community right here instead of trying to convert roughly 10% to another platform. diversify on social media, twitch is bad anyways. I'd switch away if my content wasn't so different here
Thanks for making these vids, Harris!
I love this guy. He's no doubt the Wolf of Wallstreet, but the stream version. This guy makes bank off of teaching others to follow in his footsteps, though 99% of them will never make it. Its like the ultimate self-help guide...buy all these things I tell you to, don't make the mistakes I did, and keep watching my stuff = profit. The reality of the situation is most of these people would make more money buy just working a regular job, investing the money in themselves like education, and getting a better job. Instead, some of you want to play the dream job lottery with your lives and hope for the best.
Keep up the content, I love watching dreamers dream!
I just want to make a note. I hit the like button BEFORE you asked for it. Mostly what got my like was the fact you said "I'm really hear to help you guys not make the same mistakes that I did. I want to help you guys grow as well."
It really hit home for me. I like helping out when I can and I just really like it when I, me, need help there are others out there that are willing to help.
Thanks Brother!
To be honest. You have helped me dial in my set up so much. The value you provide onto CZcams is insane.
You truly know how to make things Look, Feel, and Sound professional with out breaking someone's Bank.
You have my Like's indefinitely.
I also Dare you to Pick up and Play Rocket League for a Week on stream.
But I may be a little biased ;)
This was very good advice, well thought through so many people trying to flog stuff to people and I appreciate that fact...
I got a streambeats ad on this video. What a coincidence
This channel is just too good
Yes
I really want to think that Harris changed shirts and recorded himself saying "what should I upgrade first" for that tiny montage, but I know he addresses this multiple times a stream anyway lol
just got as stream deck...as a "noob" streamer...you're videos are simply, clutch.
Thanks bruh...really
Nice one warrior, and thank you for the great info.
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.
Thank you for the great content Harris. I am brand new to streaming and creating my own CZcams content and your videos have been extremely helpful. Whether it be lighting, mic settings or tips on how to stream, you have given me an excellent head start. Thanks again. 😁👍
I'd love to see a video going in detail on how to talk to editors especially ones from fiverr. I feel that is a critical thing to understand as far as expanding and growing as a brand
i feel this. I think im at the point where I need to start looking at an editor... i just dont know what to look for.
@@Th3B1gB0zz hey! I edit for a few other creators if you guys wanna hit me up! My discords SFGoose#0666. I can provide some previous work as well :)
@@sfgoose2875 added on discord! In desperate need of a reliable and affordable editor and I like you style!
@@thatgodjosh lemme get back to you after my stream!
Overlay suggestion for Own3d:
white/light background with bright colors.
I was looking to get a stream-package from own3d, but I'm looking for a cozy/chill vibe with a light/bright theme. I don't feel like any packages from own3d falls into that category. Nearly all of them feature a black or dark colored background with red/blue/purple highlights/accents. They look cool, don't get me wrong but nearly all of them have like a generic gamer-y feel to them. I definitely think there is a market and an audience for brighter, lighter themed packages. I don't know if you have any say or input with own3d, but considering you have your own package I imagine you have at least some say in what they make. If you even bothered to read this: thank you, I'm huge fan of your content!
Solid advices as always. There really are value in people who have been doing something for a long time, the tips are deep.
I fall between the first two groups there. I started this as just a hobby, but I’m starting to experiment and looking to making this a career. Thank you for making this video. It helps prioritize what I need to be doing.
Excellent video Harris! For the budget team, what is the cheapest Go Pro model you would put the bar at? Thanks for the high value content!
I find myself sitting in between hobbiest and budget bros, and i have been trying to do everything you recommend to help grow and ill be dammed it is working!
Hey dude, just a thank you for all of your videos. I have a lot of help here and really appreciate it.
jesus i open youtube and i see this made just a few seconds ago lol
Same lol
ok noone cares
Same Bro
Thank you!!! You answered my greatest upgrade question!!!!!
I got the Alpha Gaming overlays before even knowing that it was yours! it's such a good pack, i love it
well for me i guess i am pretty lost on twitch because i dont know what to do and dont know what to stream because all of the games and things i want to stream are to big so cant even be found and that makes me sad even though i am doing just as a hobby but these videos always make me think more about the entire thing and so i want to continue even if i dont really succeed. maybe in some years i will be comming back here and seeing this with a big success in my pockets :p
Please keep these great videos coming. Routine reality checks are very important.
Definitely see myself as a hobbyist FOR NOW. As soon as i get a bigger following and an actual PC that can stream - I'll move up to budget bros.
I have an idea of where i want to take my content but just don't have the PC to do so.
Fun fact: the first upgrade I need is a pc because my pc can only stream for 2 minutes before crashing! Also Harris loving the videos it has helped me a lot in terms of like what mic to buy
Appreciate all the information man. I've been trying to figure out some answers from how to make better youtube videos to should a small streamer get an editor and you hit every answer as it came up in my head. Love All the info and appreciate the heck out of you. Be well
I know your videos are geared towards game streamers, but as a Twitch DJ, they are great for me too. Thanks Harris. I’m a hobbyist, with a great job, giving me the option to splurge every once in a while. I still use a budget capture though, thanks to your video on that. Biggest splurge was a Canon m200 and a used Blue Yeti, definitely gives the professional look and sound. DJ_IAm
Love your videos. Always great advice!
These videos have been really helpful. I want to start doing a little more streaming and branch out to do other things besides my podcast. Something to warrant the amount of money I spent on my system lol
BRRRR real estate strategy. Wasnt expecting to run into that today.
If you’re wanting a device similar to the GoXLR but don’t even have an XLR mic, check out the PCPanel Pro. They’re still shipping out the first batches right now but it’s a $90 desk top device with sliders and knobs to control any input or output audio device. Same quick access, just without and XLR input.
*"Help you spend the little bit of money you make in your streams"* He roasted us without trying
Good luck to everyone out their streaming the grind is real
Does anyone feel like they're doing all of this. And been doing this for a long time. And you're so experienced that you already know about everything in these videos. Yet still struggling SO much.
the pond increases every day, harder to be found
@@ee1yd fax
FIrst impression: Go to bed Harris, you look half awake!
Excellent suggestions as usual
ive recently been on a decline and i appreciate this, provides me some different thoughts to hopefully get back into it
Such great tips. I think one of the best tips was about getting a good profile picture and banner. So many think they can just slap their face on as their profile picture and that it'll work for them. CZcams/Twitch profile pictures is what draws me into clicking on someone's channel.
11:27 "... and look, bro..." I feel that :D
May I recommend a series where we could learn basics to advanced and anything in between? anything related to streaming either equipment, tips, and goals.. etc. I think it is a great idea since it will have a better-defined structure to follow and refer to as well as it seems to be what attracts the sample of people coming to the channel. It also could be sponsored series as well by for example: Elegato or any organization whose products/services are related to streaming. thought of it and decided to just write it in a comment. I rarely write any comments. Love your content!
thanks for the information Harris. Your content is always full of lessons to learn and pick up.
You can even watch a multitude of CZcams videos on editing, from channels such as Casey Farris to Patrick Stirling, both of which have helped me tremendously on navigating and utilizing Davinci
Love the analogy about the train... good to understand and accept it early on.
I’m the hobbyist, I will admit.
I’m happy with growth, I like the side hustle, but don’t want a career (I have a good one) (not a flex, just being realistic).
I do hit on the curve of wanting to succeed and did enjoy creating a CZcams channel. Mind you I find myself enjoying that more lately.
Anyways thanks for thinking of us!
Some great tips here. I often hop into small streamers chat and check out their about me panels and graphics and while I'm not a professional graphic designer, I have used Photoshop and illustrator for many years so I always offer to make them some panels or graphics for free to help them out. Anyway, I've liked and subscribed 👍
Hey man, thanks again for these videos you put out. I've learned so much from you, and I rally do appreciate your advice on a lot of things. Keep being great bro!
the second time you asked for the like, I hit it. it was more "friendly". can't really speak psychology but I hope you got me
Excellent advice overall. Thanks Harris, you're a real bro.
Edit: I hit the like button for you!
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.
Big fan and I am studying your blueprint but at the same time creating my own lane!
Helps a lot, thanks!
Thank You Harris !!
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
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
Thank you for your videos! They have helped me so much!
I am learning from you .
Very informative info.
I’ve been following ya for awhile now, but mainly been on CZcams vs Twitch.
Maybe it’s because of CZcams’s dumb discovery, or Bc I’m kind of a variety streamer/video creator. (I also worked in video production/editing/directing for the last 7 years)
But I seem to be stuck in a rut with the same people showing up but no one new coming in.
I’ve began using social media more, but not too sure what to do besides that.
It's not bcs of "CZcams's dump discovery or variety". I haven't watched a Single Video of you yet and can already see why it isn't working. Your Thumbnails are shit. (Sorry but i think being honest is more helpful) Variety isn't destroying a Channel in my opinion. It CAN but if it does, i think you make something wrong. I don't know if you're using a Webcam yet. If not -> Definitely get one! Gamechanger, really. If you do -> Thumbnail! It seems like you are using the type of Thumbnails 2012 were used. They are boring and can't ever compete with the newer ones.
Hope i could help you a bit.
@@sunniuwusenpai yeah I’ve been trying to make my thumbnails better on videos recently. Photoshop isn’t my expertise though.
Even editing was a pain till recently when I got a lot more time on my hand. (I was working
I do got a webcam tho. Exploring possibilities of how I can record my webcam and content at the same time and stream.
But idk if there’s any computer strong enough to do that And I don’t have the room for a 2 pc set up. (I was working a lot of 11 days in a row stretches and had about 5 days off a month at times)
@ me on discord or email if you would be interested in doing any editing work on some of your time off currently looking for an editor and your style is sweet!
I'm a simple man. Harris asks me to click like, I click like.
Men of culture
For the culture
I spent a stupid amount of time and money on my set up, wish I watched this video, could have saved some funds. My equipment has made money x10+, but realizing the most expensive is not always best. Let’s just say my Apurture light is in for warranty repair and the Godoy back up is working just as well.
@AlphaGaming Owned.tv now also does Emotes! You can even pick an art style!
I’m fortunate to have a job that allows me to safely buy an upgrade here and there if I want to but trust me when I say having the best doesn’t make you the best! You still need to put in work if that’s the goal :) my subscribers didn’t change once I added a GOXLR or shure SM7B to the setup but my happiness did!
I fall into the “hobbyist” category would love to see more videos about our kind lol
Upgrade things that need upgrading! If your usb mic is still working then upgrade everything else before getting that xlr mic!
Great content, as always! :)
But that light on left top corner... so annoying!
Can I request a product review? I noticed that the Rode Wireless Go II lavalier microphone for filmmakers can be plugged into a PC for an all in one wireless audio solution (that should be compatible with OBS/Xsplit). It's definitely not going to be for everybody and I understand that. However, I think it would be a good multipurpose investment for multicontent creators.
1. Twitch Streamers who do a lot of moving around in their space and can't reasonably have a desk mic near them at all times.
2. Live podcasters or streamers who have guests and want a wire-free solution to get everyone going as fast as possible.
3. Content creators who make videos in places with a lot of noise (the Rode Go II has a cute little fur windsock).
I'd like to see it compete with the likes of the SM7B and Elgato Wave 3 and see if it could actually be a contender for a streaming mic setup.
Edit: I think Comica's BoomX-D2 may also be something to look at. Both the Rode and Comica devices have 2 microphones with a single receiver that plug in via USB-C, however I'm not sure that the BoomX-D2 can be plugged into a PC as an input source. Rode's kit sells for $300USD, while the Comica sells at $260USD.
Thanks for reading and I hope you consider these microphones for review.
I second that last tip, Streambeats is amazing!
Harris, you give some wonderful tips. Me and you are not even in the same niche but I learn so much from you, Keep up the great work bro 👊
I have a GoPro Hero 8 and GoPro made a WebCam app to make it easy to connect to the computer. It has some hiccups but it works pretty well.
Let’s go! These are my favorite types of videos!
Love the work you put out. I have a professional career but started youtube cod videos on in January and slowly growing. but the content here and streambeats helped me out more then words can describe thank you harris! im on the discord i dont talk there. but i link and credit streambeats on any video i use! i appreciate it
Thumbnail says - biggest upgrade
What I read - budget upgrade
@Rahi Yadav maybe
I fit PERFECTLY into the hobbyist and fall somewhat into budget bros
7:40!!!! I felt this is my bones
I like that. Invest in "YOURSELF".
Dude, you are awesome !
The RGB lights in the background! Hahahahahaha
