Recording

All you need to record a podcast is:

  • a computer, laptop, tablet, or Smartphone
  • a microphone
  • recording software or app

Other tips:

  • Dampen Noise
    • It's best to record in a quiet room. Background noise can be distracting to the listener
  • use headphones
    • Headphones can help the podcaster to better edit the recording.
  • use the microphone
    • Even though most computers, tablets, and Smartphone have a built-in microphone, the quality of the recording is greatly improved when using an external microphone.
