How professional does your podcast sound?



What recording software do you use?

Do you record your podcast in a closet?

Should you upgrade your equipment?

What's the best mic, at the best price?

I get questions about these things from podcasters all the time.

And I haven't really answered them much, because, in most cases, podcasters need to focus more on their content and premise than their equipment.

But, it's true, sound quality is indeed important.

And, it's actually way easier - and cheaper! - than you think to have a really professional-sounding podcast.

In fact, when I recorded the first 30 episodes of Philly Who?, I did it with two $98 SM58 mics, that's it!

No studio, no $400 mic.

I literally just carried the two mics in my backpack and recorded the interviews in random conference rooms.

Yet, the most common feedback I got back then was how professional the show sounded.

So, how is it done?

How can you get top-notch recording quality, anywhere, on a budget?

Today Rockwell Felder is here to break down the answers.

Rockwell is the Co-Founder and CFO of Squadcast, a remote recording software platform for podcasters.

On this episode of Grow The Show, he is going to talk about how you can get crisp, high-quality podcast audio, without spending a fortune on complicated equipment or state-of-the-art studio time.

In fact, with just a few adjustments, and the right technique, you can have professional-sounding audio by the next time you sit down to record!
