Launching your podcast can be relatively easy if you choose the right podcast equipment. The success of your podcast relies heavily on the quality of equipment you use to record. Choosing the best equipment for your podcast can be overwhelming if you’re not well-versed in audio tech and electronics.

Podcasting is the latest craze of digital media formats, with 850,000 active podcasts and over 30 million episodes currently available worldwide. It is a fulfilling and exciting way to pursue creative ambitions, giving people a platform to share their opinions and connect with a potentially global audience.

There’s no doubt that podcasting is taking the world by storm, with over one million people around the globe taking to the airways to share their knowledge on various topics. But entering a $1 billion industry can be intimidating, because of the tough competition.

One of the most intimidating parts of starting a podcast is knowing which equipment is right. I’m not an electrical engineer or audio engineer or whoever comes out of college knowing how sound waves work. I’m a regular person who kind of knows how to work my computer and understands that when you talk closer to the microphone it sounds better.

Does the sight of a microphone make you clam up? Have you read a million how-to pieces and don’t know where to start?

Just the thought of starting your own podcast can be intimidating. There are so many things to consider – from the basics of choosing a podcast name to deciding which audio equipment you’re going to need.

While a dedicated studio would be the most ideal setup for your podcast, it might not always be possible. Recording your podcast online is a great alternative when dealing with multiple hosts or guests that are in different locations.

When people think of podcasts, they often associate them with fancy, oftentimes expensive studio setups. But thanks to the evolution of mobile technology, it’s easier than ever to create a podcast using just your iPhone.

If you want the very best results for your podcast, you will need to invest in the right equipment. But with several moving parts, it’s hard to know and decide what exactly is required.

The beauty of podcasting lies in the fact that it gives anyone who is passionate and knowledgeable in a particular subject the opportunity to share their thoughts with the world. If you’ve been thinking about creating your own show but aren’t sure how much money you need to get the ball rolling, the following post is for you.

It can be difficult to know exactly what equipment you will need when starting your own podcast. But one thing is for sure – a good quality microphone is key to your setup.
