PodSqod 13 - Edirol R-1 Flash Recorder

  

As the Portable Media & Podcast Expo draws near, we take a look at another portable flash recorder. This time, the Edirol R-1 takes its turn in Studio1A.
I found this to be a great little recorder, although more of the “consumer” type than the Marantz PMD660, which has a “pro” feel to it.
The R-1 [...]

Grado Headphones - SR80

Until I replied to a recent forum question on headphones, I never knew how passionate people were about their headphones. For me, headphones have been rather utilitarian. I used them mainly when recording just for feedback (not literally.)
Since Podcasting, I’ve been wearing headphones much more as I work and listen Podcasts without bothering [...]

Studio1A goes Live Assist

This was basically a test of running the show in a “live” format, ie; no post-production. It was a success in that [...]

Extreme HeadPhone Contest and “pardon our dust”

Sorry for the delay in getting out an “ALL NEW” PodSqod. Basically, Studio1A is completely overhauled and now has a “live” radio station like workflow and a seperate production chain.
Once we get the workflow, wiring, drilling, new servers, networking, racks, interfaces and software in place, we’ll actually be able to talk into [...]

PodSqod 10 - Alesis ML9600 Recorder

Alesis MasterLink 9600
PodSqod takes a look at the MasterLink stereo mastering recorder. This is a hard disk based recorder that will take your analog or digital input and store it on the masterlinks drive.
The whole idea is that you start with “Playlists” and have songs under the playlist. Storage is very logical and [...]
