Looking to get into stream and was wondering what was a good mic setup was.  Nothing over the top,  but nothing cheapy.  I do have a few of these laying around and was wondering if they would be any good for streaming...

 

Mic 1: http://www.samsontech.com/samson/products/microphones/drum-microphones/q-kick/

 

Mic 2: http://www.samsontech.com/samson/products/microphones/drum-microphones/qtom/

 

Mic 3:  http://www.samsontech.com/samson/products/microphones/condenser-microphones/c02/

 

Then I have a Tascam US-1800 interface.

Which out of the mics I have would be the best for streaming?  If none of them are any good.  Please let me know whats a better one and a matching interface if it needs one.

 

Thanks!

Get a Rode NT USB or the Audio Technica AT2020

 

Best USB microhphones out there. NOTE: The NT USB comes with a pop filter and it's a really good microphone

None of those are good for streaming, they're mostly instrument mics. The pencil mic might be good though...

 

One thing that you might want is a dynamic mic. They won't pic up the surrounding sound...they're really good...just a bit expensive

Are there any programs out there that take the input from a microphone and act like a interface so I can EQ my voice and then outputs the signal so I can use it as an input in OBS or anything?  Hopefully this some made sense.  Haha,  Just let me know other wise!

Nah...I don't see any point, just use pure voice. I'm actually looking at the Rode Podcaster
