Pros

✓ One XLR input with 48V phantom power — the step that takes you off USB microphones without buying a separate interface
✓ Four channels on physical sliders, so game, chat, music and mic each have their own fader instead of one master volume
✓ Mute and monitor buttons on the front face rather than round the back, which is where you need them mid-stream
✓ Four assignable buttons for sound effects you record yourself, plus six voice-change presets
✓ Controllable RGB that can be turned down or off
✓ 4.4★ across 4,682 ratings

Cons

– This is the same mixer as the FIFINE SC3W we also list — same hardware, same pooled rating, different colour — and the white one is usually the cheaper of the two. Check both before buying either
– One XLR input, not two. A second person means a second interface, so this is a solo-desk mixer despite the four channels
– The four channels are software-routed from one PC, so it mixes what your computer is playing rather than genuinely separate sources
– Sound-effect buttons and voice changers are the features that sell it and the ones you stop using in week two; the sliders and the XLR input are the reason to keep it

DJI Mic Mini (2 TX + 1 RX + Charging Case)

Wireless lapel audio light enough to forget you clipped it on

The small DJI: two transmitters, a receiver and a charging case, at roughly half the weight and half the price of the full-size DJI Mic. Each transmitter clips on magnetically without dragging your collar down, runs 48 hours with the case, and cancels background noise on its own. Step up to the standard DJI Mic only if you need its far longer range.

Esinkin Wireless Audio Receiver (Bluetooth)

Adding Bluetooth to wired speakers and older audio gear

The Esinkin Wireless Audio Receiver adds Bluetooth to any speaker, amplifier, or receiver with an RCA or 3.5 mm input, so a wired setup you already like can stream straight from a phone or tablet. It ships with the AC adapter, USB power cable, and RCA-to-AUX cord needed to drop it into most systems, and pairing is a single button press. A cheap way to keep working gear in service instead of replacing it.

Focusrite Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen USB Audio Interface

The box an XLR mic needs before it will talk to your computer

An XLR microphone cannot plug into a laptop — it needs an interface to supply phantom power, add gain and convert the signal. The Scarlett Solo is the one most people start with: one XLR preamp with 56dB of gain and 48V, one instrument input for guitar, and 24-bit/192kHz conversion. Direct monitoring through the front headphone jack lets you hear yourself while recording with no delay.
