What gear do I need?


Recommended Posts

Please remember I'm a complete novice. At the moment I have only been producing a podcast and I have been using a Sony PCM D-50 to record interviews.

 

What I need to do now is to attach 2 mics at the same time to my laptop and record from both at the same time. I will then clean up the recording, convert it to mp3 and record it using SAM Broadcaster and stream it.

 

I guess I need some sort of mixer so please advise.

If your budget is fairly low but you still want a decent mic, I would recommend the Behringer C-1. It's only $49 USD but has amazing results.

 

If you have a little more money, the RE20 is about $300 depending on where you get it and is basically one of the best mics for on air use.

Maplin in the UK sell mixers- get yourself a couple of Electrovoice RE50 mics- they WON'T let you down, and are a damn good price on ebay at times!

Those mics are squaddie proof too- it's what I use in my studio!

They will last FOREVER!!! They are often what you see news/sports reporters use on OB work.

If I have helped you with a Freebie- please be kind enough to add a link from your own site or blog to mine- thanks! http://arthurburton.net

 

Thank You!

Two channels for mics, two channels for a stereo feed and an auxiliary input.

My neighbor has one and loves that it takes up such a small footprint on his desk.
