Recording Audio on the Cheap

Podcaster Paul Parkinson of Podcast User Magazine (see pic) and I put together a short guide to cheap and cheerful audio recording - you can get it via the link here (full details here) We'd love to play more audio recorded by our listeners, bloggers and podcasters on the segment, but if you've never done it before it can be a bit bewildering figuring out how to record something in good quality. Well the good news is that if you have access to a computer and more or less any kind of microphone you can plug into it (even a £1 one as we discovered in making this recording) you can get good results. So if listening to this inspires you to be creative and you want to start a podcast of your own, or just record something to run on the segment drop a note to podsandblogs@bbc.co.uk and we'll be in touch.
