==Screen Casting and TutorialsScreencasting==
You want to create some videos for YouTube you say? Something which sounds so simple can quickly get pretty involved. I mean, you ''can'' simply hit record on your web cam , save the result to a file, and then upload it - done. But if unless you are perfect at "one shot" takes, it isn't so simple. If you care about the quality of the results that's when it quickly gets complicated. To record audio, you want a good microphone. With a good microphone, you want a good pair of headphones to monitor your sound. With a good recording, you're going to want some 'studio' equipment and software to mix your tracks into a final product. There are countless choices for audio / video / recording / mixing equipment and the software (plus 'content libraries' like sound effects or video fades). I'm not a professional musician, sound engineer nor even a professional vlogger. But, I'm interested in making some quality screencasts so here are my notes about some of the choices I'm making for my setup.

Instead of a hardware mixer (that requires various software to interact with, administer or configure the hardware), you can alternatively use a complete software approach. OBS Studio is a [[:en:Software_vision_mixer|software vision mixer]] and [[:en:Mixing_console|audio mixer]].
[[:en:OBS_Studio|'''OBS Studio''']] is GPL-licensed software app for [[Screencast|screencasting ]] and live streaming. Written in C/C++ and built with Qt, OBS Studio provides real-time capture, scene composition, recording, encoding, and broadcasting via Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP), HLS, SRT or RIST. It can stream videos to any RTMP-supporting destination, including YouTube, Twitch, Instagram and Facebook.
