In this workflow I share with you how to get better audio in your YouTube videos on a mid-tier budget using the Deity S-Mic 2S and the MOTU M2, and then sync that audio with your video clips. If you are interested in improving the sound quality of your YouTube videos then I've got some answers. I’ve had several of you ask about my audio setup, which I’ve shared in previous videos, however after offering a lower budget option, I’m going to spend some time with what I consider the next steps in scaling your endeavor to a workflow that will be a worthwhile investment that will grow with you. The MOTU M2 is the audio interface I’m working with, which is compatible with the M1 Mac, however these tips also apply to Windows users as well.
