First of all, what is the use of uploading quality video with noisy audio? Is that useful to the audience? Do you think, that video will rank on YouTube? Moreover, from my point of view, the answer is, No.

In YouTube, the quality comes under a lot of responsibilities. In the meantime, we have to cover everything within the specified budget. So, here I’m going to help you to select the microphone based on channel specification within a small budget, therefore kindly read the below things.

Before getting into that, will see the types of microphones available for YouTube/Vlog content creators.

Types of Microphones for YouTubers

You may ask, is there any particular mic available for YouTube content creators? The answer is no. But, based on your channel work, for example, you may shoot the video outdoor, in such case, you need to have a different mic (removing noisy background) compare to indoor video shoot mic.

So, firstly analyze which type of mic suits for the channel work, then proceed to buy that. Don’t buy any mic randomly without knowing the work environment usage.

Ok, let’s see some of the varieties of the mic,

USB Mic: Consider you’re a travel vlogger and recording videos in different places. In such a case, this handy mic helps to come along with you anywhere. However, it’s easily comfortable with one hand.

Lavalier Mic: I hope you’ve seen this type of mic every interview. Just peoples tie this mic on their shirt. Simply, you can hide it on your clothes and start making the video. The best part of this mic is, inexpensive. Yes, if you’re a budget YouTuber, then you can afford this mic even at $20.

Shotgun Mic: Specially made for vloggers (especially for tutorial channels). This shotgun mic doesn’t carry outside noise even if you make videos with a lot of outside traffic noise.

My kind advice is, when you buy any kind of mic, make sure that it provides 100% noisy reduction audio quality, and furthermore, I believe shotgun gives it.

My recommendation mic for the YouTuber is this one. (Will see the details clearly below).

Studio Microphone: The name defines. Most of the time, you’ve seen this kind of mic in-studio set up. Yes, that’s great to control this mic. If you have a separate studio system for the YouTube channel, then this mic is more comfortable. For the reference, check out the below image.
