#10: Portable recording

In today’s show I talk about a few portable audio recorders I’m familiar with. I was introduced to a new web based podcasting platform yesterday - ipadio.com. Only had a quick look but it looks very interesting and I’ll cover it in a later show.

There’s a question from Paul who’s band is Jimmy Yucca and his amazing band, about recording on the iPhone.

iTalk Lite – a nice recording app for the iPhone - http://www.italksync.com

Blue Mikey – an external stereo microphone for the iPhone and iPods - nice review here – http://applereviews.com/blue-mikey-review

iPhone App – Blue FiRe that goes with the Mikey – http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/blue-fire/id336713577

The Zoom H4n – what you get these days in place of the H4.

A nice page about the new Zoom H1 – http://www.samsontech.com/products/productpage.cfm?prodID=2053

#6: Popping

How to stop that annoying popping sound on your spoken audio.

Links to YouTube videos where I review some mics:

• Shure SM58 (you can see the pop filter in front of the mic)
• Samson C01U condenser mic

You can get pop filters at many electronics and music outlets – for online options look at Dolphin Music (UK), Amazon.com (USA). This pop filter by Rode from Dolphin Music (UK) has a small clamp which should be well suited to the Blue Snowball <— AFFILIATE LINKS
