Podcasting

[That dude]

Me and my mates (my mates and I?) are going to (try to) make a podcast. We know virtually nothing about it. We would like to know if anyone has done this and could give us advice. We would like your advice and maybe you could show us a link or two to things that might educate us. And what is the necessary equipment?

Thanks

Apart from a microphone, you don't need any other physical computer apart from thec omputer which you obviously have already.

 

I know NE use Skype to make their podcast and use a programme (Google record Skype conversation) to record their conversation. Then probably use a programme like Audacity to edit it.

 

Or if you're all using the same microphone/computer you can record straight into Audacity.

[That dude]

Yeah we're sorted for microphones, can we do it over the internet?

 

EDIT: Dumb question.

 

How do you record it from skype

I wouldn't blame you if you were being sarcastic.

 

I was trying to point out that a lot of people forget that Google exists and just ask about everything when Google could tell them the answer in seconds.

[That dude]

Lol, I thought you were helping.

[Charlie]

Lol, I thought you were helping.

 

Yeah, I was, but also pointing out that you could just use Google.

Don't use stupid compression - like mp3 at 128k or 32k. A good compromise is using lame with the voice preset. (Google how to use lame.)

[That dude]

Yay, we get to use a recording studio to make it.

[UziT]

post it here or give us a link so we can listen
