Anyone here post a video of themselves playing and or singing on youtube? Did you look into the camera and mics, or other equipment options that are best for this purpose? Thx ---

**Moderator Action** While lists of compatible equipment can be had from factual sources, what is best is ultimately a matter of opinion. Also, the OP is seeking personal experiences. This thread is better suited to IMHO. Moving thread from General Questions to In My Humble Opinion. ---
