Choosing your Podcast Microphone
The technical quality of your podcast is the first thing people notice. If you are serious about podcasting, you need to get this element right.
There is no 1 correct microphone to buy; avoid spending money on a microphone based on reading a blog post about “best microphones for podcasting”, as you may be overspending or misjudging what you really need. The decision should be based on your experience of using microphones, the room/environment in which you record and your budget.
Under any circumstances, please refrain from releasing a podcast using your built-in laptop, desktop or mac microphone, as they are awful to listen to.
Remember your podcast represents your brand. If it’s going to sound cheap, this will do more damage than good.
