Best Podcast Setup for in studio or guests and co-hosts in two locations

Update on a workaround if needed: For those that have had to purchase a mic equivalent to the ATR 2100, or had the issue of audio being fed back into both channels of the Zoom, try this instead.

In the video I have the 1/8" to 1/4" connected from the ATR's headphone jack out to the Zoom's channel 2...Instead:

Connect that same 1/8" to 1/4" cable out of your computer's headphone out jack and into the Zoom...so to reiterate, it's not coming out of the ATR's headphone jack. Then, make sure your computer settings and Skype audio settings are that the ATR is still the input, but that your output is the computer's headphone out. Your signal still goes to the Skype caller via the USB connection and their signal is carried to you from your headphone out of the computer and "mixed" into the Zoom where you should be able to hear them and still be isolated into 2 separate tracks for post production.

Hi I want interview someone from their phone to my place were I started my podcast what cables do I need to get for that

Best video

The slightest. You talked about the mic nothing about actual equipment set up with two people. Bummer.

Hey, great video first and foremost. Quick question though, How do i input multiple headphones to the zoom h6?

Sir, I am beginner. I want to record my written poetry professionally. In which my line will go in high tone and will also come in low tone. Tell me such dynamic mic and audio interface. So that I can record and mix later. My room is not sound proof. My total budget is $300. But a shopkeeper told me that you cannot do recording with dynamic mic. Please tell me what should I do. Tell me such a mic and audio interface that I will not regret after buying.

Thanks for the sound advice sir.

Is that Samson a good alternative or a distant second?

This micyou are using is a good sound for sure

Thanks

Thanks I had been looking for something like these instructions

Hey everyone! What would I do if I wanted to record multiple angles on different tracks from an Iphone. Would I just need 4 Iphones? How would I get the audio to sync together with the video? TIA

Nobody ever talks about cameras

Extremely helpful.

Now I know why amateur podcasts sound so bad.

Thank you for this excellent video. You explained a lot I didnt even know I needed to know. I recently was lucky to find a Zoom H6 for just $100 on Offerup. They owner upgraded and sold the H6 because it got messy sticky. I took it home and wiped it clean with some cotton and spirit/nail paint remover solution. It looks brand new now and works perfect. It also came with bot XY and MS mics.

Does both locations need the Zoom audio recording?

excellent setup-Podcasting

Awesome video! Will a similar approach work with a MOTU M4?

Does it also work with a headset incl. mic on H4N or do I need an external mic?

What would you suggest today? This mic isn’t available.

Is it still relevant today?

We have a podcast where four people are in one location and another person in a remote location. We all need to hear each other and the other person. Was looking at the Rodecaster Pro, but was wondering if there's a better solution? We have been using Zoom to connect with the remote host but it's hard to hear them and ourselves. Any recommendations?

This is so complicated/ Better to pyt two micros into a small mixer and bring 9ut the mixed sound for live streaming. Nice ad for ZOOM but not necessary

I end up picking up a ton of hiss running this set up using a Samson q2u through my MacBook pro. Could it be the type of aux cable I'm using? Or is there a setting id need to adjust?

Am using the PD-70 Presonus dynamic broadcasting microphone with a audio interface. Using Audacity and Wave Pad..The PD-70 is a knock off of the Shure SM7B and cost only a little more $100.

Once again I’m back at this video. It has been so helpful!
I am finding some trouble though with the remote guest. I keep hearing myself ever so slightly after I speak and I’m not able to get rid of it. Turning down the audio in the mic doesn’t help. I’m not quite sure what to do at this point.

Hi Kevin! I heard the ATR is being discontinued. I want to start an interview style podcast that might be remote sometimes. Can you please suggest a few similar mics?

amazing mic! thnx for the video!

Con un grabadora TASCAM R40 TAMBIEN SE PUEDE..??

Hello, these samson Q2U microphone can be connected directly to the face with a plus adapter or not .. ?? regards

Would it make any sense to use one of these recorders if you have say an AT 2020 MIC plugged into a GOXLR ? Any real benefit to be had here if you just want to "PODCAST" your own voice? There's so much audio tech stuff in general out there with different things capable of X,Y,Z and it seems like there is just a TON of "overlap" which makes things confusing...

Question, does the other person/co-host that is not in studio with you need a microphone for Skype or can they speak directly into their computer? Would it sound the same as your voice or would it sound different?

This is so helpful to me..I am a musician, but tired of computers...but also use logic. I like the idea of this being the majority of recording.

Great video. Can I do that with an xlr mic, specifically Shure M58? Thank you

Just found your channel! I appreciate the simple explanations!

Love this video as I’ve been having some recording problems recently. So upon watching this I tried to buy a ATR2100 but seems hard to get here in the UK. Not sure if a new one is being released. Followed the steps in the video with the Samson q2 and failed. I’ve since noticed the comments on this problem. I’m hoping that it fixes it but I’ve missed my recording window. If I played music on the computer (instead of Skype call). Would this be the same? Just trying to experiment so it’s ready. I’m guessing the other comments work for the Samson.

Hi kevin, my friend and i are planning on starting a podcast this quarantine. We are both remote but in two different locations. He will be using a xlr mic and i will most likely be using the ATR shown in the video in a USB format, because i’m not trying to spend a lot of money. I have a few questions regarding how to record both audios at the same time as well as if there is any issue with using a USB mic when the other is using a XLR.

Beats headphones kinda taking away credibility form this video.

Excellent info on the mic. It didn't sound particularly great to me, but that is fixable. But I get asked a lot about recording remote and have never had a really cost effective answer so this is great, totally off my radar.

The drop off is the pickup pattern. So cardioid, and not Dynamic VS condenser. A cardioid condenser would also drop off as you get out of it's pattern. Dynamic in general takes a bit more energy to work so distance tends to drop the level faster with dynamic, so it your example you are doing both (getting out of the pattern AND adding distance. Your bigger point is valid though, dynamic is the way to go for a radio broadcast type of set up.

This is actually the first informative video I’ve watched on a podcast set up for beginners. Thank you 🙏🏾

I am totally new to this. Thanks for creating this vid. Qq - Would we get better results if my cohost and I each got the mic and recorded ourselves separately? Idk how to execute that. Would we still use Skype ? 🤕

Great Video man. I have a question in case having 3 speakers locally (No Zoom). When I connect 3 mics ATR 2100 to zoom h6, will i be able to connect 3 headphones directly from the headphone jacks in the mics? will that work? thank you.

Great video

Does the handheld recorder support 5microphones? I am starting a 5 host podcast

hey kevin, is it normal for the xlr cable to not click into the zoom h6?
with the zoom h4n pro, the xlr cable would always click when putting it in, same with the tascam dr100 mkiii

Thanks so much for this video. Unfortunately I already got the Zoom H1n do you think that's go enough for podcasting or would you still recommend the Audiotechnical.

Hi Kevin! I watched your video and I’m having a few issues. I’d like to connect a guest and my co-host. My co-host and I will be in the same room recording directly into the zoom H6. Our guest will be recorded through Zoom meetings.

If you have any suggestions that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
