Are you a marketing creator already using blogs and social media to get your product, ideas or yourself out there to your followers? Have you ever thought about adding podcasting to this mix of content marketing? Audio has become a very popular way to reach audiences. Around 51% of adults in the United States listen to podcasts! Podcasts offer a deeper engagement with your followers because they usually stay tuned longer to a podcast than they would a blog. Your audience can multitask while listening to your latest podcasts as well. They can listen to you talk about your tips on organizing clutter or starting a patio garden while they drive to work or cook dinner. That simply is not possible while watching visual creative content like blogs. Here are the essentials you will need to create an amazing podcast.<\/p>\n

Microphone
\n<\/strong>The most important element of your podcast is the quality of the audio. This begins with the microphone you choose to use for your podcast. You can purchase a quality microphone without spending a fortune. You can get a USB microphone like the Audio-Technica Cardioid Dynamic USB Microphone<\/a> <\/span>from Buydig.com for under $40. Will you have guests on your podcasts? If so, a couple of sets of the CAD Audio USB Stereo Headphones with Cardioid Condenser Microphone<\/a> will be god to have. If you go with a standalone mic like the BeyerDynamic TG V50d Cardioid Dynamic Vocal Microphone<\/a>, you may want to consider also purchasing a microphone stand<\/a> so your hands are free to adjust settings or flip through notes.<\/p>\n

Mixer
\n<\/strong>Are you planning to have visiting or call-in guests on your podcast? Maybe you\u2019d like to record some music to add to your podcast. A mixer is a nice accessory to add to your list of podcasting essentials. A mixer will help you control your audio levels, inputs and outputs. A mixer<\/a> from Buydig.com will help you match different sound levels when you are recording different types of audio. The Behringer XENYX Q802USB<\/a> is the perfect mixer if you\u2019re just starting out as a podcaster. This mixer is easily plugged into a computer via USB. This low price mixer is perfect to start podcasting your interviews.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Headphones
\n<\/strong>You\u2019ll want to step up from your earbuds when you\u2019re recording your podcasts. A good pair of headphones<\/a> will keep you from spending extra time correcting mistakes and on retakes. There\u2019s nothing worse than spending an hour recording a podcast interview to find out later you forgot to turn something on! The Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro Closed Back Headphones<\/a> will give you professional sound at every volume. The all-day comfort you\u2019ll get with the soft padded headband and ear pads are a plus as well. Don\u2019t forget to add a headphone amplifier<\/a> if you plan to have a few hosts on your podcast. This will allow each of you to have your own pair of headphones. It works like a headphone splitter and amplifier in one piece of equipment.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

PC Monitor
\n<\/strong>Once you\u2019ve completed the recording of your podcast, you\u2019ll have to break out your laptop or desktop computer and begin the editing process. Adding a larger monitor<\/a> to your laptop or desktop setup will give you more flexibility to edit audio tracks.\u00a0 The LG 34\u201d UltraWide QHD Curved LED FreeSync Gaming Monitor<\/a> will give you the view you need to add effects, music and see the transitions once your podcast recording is complete. Using a monitor will also make it easier to see your guest speaker during your virtual interviews.<\/p>\n

These podcasting essentials will help you create quality audio so your podcasts will stand out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
