I've been watching quite a few of those kinds of setups videos on Youtube during the pandemic. I actually setup a small home studio because I've been getting back into music during lockdown (I originally studied music in undergrad before switching to engineering).

It's been fascinating. The mic setups and also the lighting setups that people have put together are great. I've seen some very inexpensive ingenious setups. People spending less than a hundred dollars and some time to put together a better lighting setup than I was seeing my photography friends use 10 years ago. All that with a few shop lights and some carefully folded paper.




Sounds great - if you have the names of some of those youtubers with a low-cost high-quality setup, that would be awesome! ;)


Shameless self plug but I just helped set up this stream: https://www.instagram.com/p/CQRHhSGD_Py/

Visual Synthesizer is what's used to get some of the visual to react to the drum set input via MIDI. Surprisingly easy to setup with a DAW like Ableton: https://www.imaginando.pt/products/vs-visual-synthesizer

I'm happy to answer any questions in the meantime until I write up a blog post about it all.
