August 28, 2020 UPDATE: We are now allowing 2 clients in the studio at a time - read more about our current COVID-19 prevention measures.

We’ve temporarily closed our studio to minimize the risk to our staff, clients, and those most vulnerable to COVID-19 infection. If you’d like to keep recording episodes from home, the resources on this page should help.

For more personalized assistance, book a free consultation with one of our experts, and if you’d like support all the way through your home-based podcast journey, our remote podcast recording sessions are the perfect solution.

Here’s what you’ll need to record your podcast from home:

Recording Equipment

You’ll at least need a ~$100 USB microphone to record from home, and depending on your particular needs, you might need more that that. We’ve put together a handy guide to affordable equipment for podcasting from home - all available on Amazon and through other online retailers with fast/free shipping.

Tips for Sounding Great

Our article on how to sound your best on a podcast interview from home has lots of great tips for ensuring the best sound quality for both you and your guests.

A Way To Connect

At the studio, we’re big fans of using Skype for podcast interviews. It’s easy to use and many people are already familiar with it. It does have drawbacks though: you’ll need extra software to record multi-track (for the best quality and the ability to edit out that interviewee that insisted on loudly typing during your intro), and even with extra software, you’re limited to 2 tracks, so just you and one guest. For those reasons, we’re pointing more and more people to these tips on how to record a podcast with Zoom.us. Like Skype, lots of people already know and use Zoom, but unlike Skype, it has multi-track recording (even for multiple guests) built-in.

Testing… Testing…

The best way to test your at home setup before your next big interview is to book a remote training session with us. We’ll walk you through the setup process, troubleshoot any issues, and record a test recording to ensure everything is up to snuff.
