10 tips for great sounding podcasts!

ghankstef@gmail.com (Geoff Hankerson) — Tue, 25 Dec 2007 16:44:04 +0000

Get close to the Mic! If you're more than about 6 inches from your mic - whether its an expensive condenser mic or an inexpensive usb headset mic combo, you need to be close to get the best sound. The further you are from the mic, the more background noise you introduce into signal. Be sure to address the front of the microphone. Each microphone has a sweet spot. Spend some time finding your mic's sweet spot.

FDA 37 - a look at the BEHRINGER MIC 200 PREAMP

ghankstef@gmail.com (Geoff Hankerson) — Wed, 21 Nov 2007 01:48:48 +0000

Remember the Fundamentals of Digital Audio is part of the Home Recording Network. Updating my iMac to Leopard has gone smoothly so far. Amadeus Pro, Garage Band and the Presonus Inspire I394 are all working fine.In this podcast we look at the BEHRINGER MIC 200 PREAMP. I really like this little guy especially if you use one of the warm settings for vocals. I has a low cut filter - great for cutting out the low rumbly sounds of speech.

Fundamentals of Digital Audio Podcast Episode 36 - Garage Band 08

ghankstef@gmail.com (Geoff Hankerson) — Wed, 29 Aug 2007 01:48:55 +0000

Let me set this up

what you are about to hear is me playing my acoustic guitar over a GB 08 magic garage band song, but its not just any acoustic guitar. Its been neglected in an attic or basement without a change of strings in 15 years or so. My playing is 15 years rusty too. Take a listen

I'm surprised at how it sounds almost ok under the circumstances

GB '08

Back after the summer off more on that in a few minutes
