Starter Bassist

Hey, I'm Magnus. I'm just joining this site as of today, and am hoping I could get some help. Recently, I decided to get back into bass, ad I lost my old one a while back, and will most likely be making YouTube videos with the new bass. Unfortunately, I don't have a mic, camera, or even a computer. To any musicians on YouTube in general, what would be a proper first purchase? As in, something I would absolutely need, and can probably get by without the other stuff?

Thanks in advance,

                                      Magnus

Computer + audio interface.

Computer and audio interface. You can make video jb your phone and then mix it with audio track in some sequencer.  

1. USB Microphone:

   • A decent USB microphone is essential for capturing clear and quality audio. This is crucial, especially when you're recording your bass playing or providing commentary in your videos. Brands like Blue Yeti or Audio-Technica offer good USB microphones at reasonable prices.

2. Webcam:

   • While you may not have a camera at the moment, a webcam can be a more affordable option to get started with video recording. Logitech is known for producing reliable and reasonably priced webcams.

3. Audio Interface:

   • If you're planning to record your bass directly into your computer, an audio interface is necessary. It helps convert your analog signal into a digital one that your computer can process. Focusrite and Behringer are popular choices for entry-level audio interfaces.

4. Basic Video Editing Software:

   • There are several free and user-friendly video editing software options available. This will allow you to edit and enhance your videos before uploading them to YouTube. DaVinci Resolve and Shotcut are good options to consider.

5. Computer:

   • Since you mentioned you don't have a computer, it's important to have access to one for video editing and uploading to YouTube. If you're on a budget, consider a laptop that meets the minimum requirements for video editing software.
