Ep. 27 - Season 2 - Producing a Professional Sounding Podcast on Any Budget

About this episode

In this episode, Stephen Verner discusses how to produce a professional-sounding podcast on a budget by sharing his equipment setup journey and improvement strategies.

Send us Fan Mail In this 27th overall episode of RAVE the Podcast, I share for a bit on how to plan your podcast equipment set-up and make strategically wise purchases along the way to continue making minor improvements to your podcast quality. I use my own journey of all the set-ups I went through to get to what I have in my studio now, what worked, what didn't, some buying strategies, and end with the moves I am making now to take my podcast to the next level. You can start with a $30 USB mic and a free DAW like Audacity, and still make a great professional-sounding podcast. You don't need expensive gear to get started and stay producing. I share my strategy for making incremental improvements without going into debt to buy the hottest gear. Support the show Facebook - RAVE The Podcast
