For most streamers, a USB mic is the right choice. XLR shines once you add multiple sources or want studio-grade audio.
Decision guide
- USB: plug and play, great quality, single-channel.
- XLR: needs an interface, supports phantom-power mics, multiple inputs.
- Hybrid (USB + XLR): starts as USB, grows with you to XLR.
Tip: Hybrid mics are a great upgrade path — you don't lose your investment when you go pro.
