What piece of equipment do you recommend investing the most in?
You have confused polar patterns with diaphragm types. You showed two polar patterns (omni and cardioid) but described them as condenser and dynamic. Neither condenser nor dynamic mics pick up equally from all angles unless they are omnidirectional (and most aren’t). Podcastage is a great TH-cam channel for learning about different types of microphones if you’re so inclined.
Well said I learned so much from podcastage while this isn't a bad video mistakes like that can confuse people
I immediately thought the same thing.
Thanks. Just went to several videos and no one was this clear and literally straight to the point. Love you !!!
Best one I seen yet. Especially here using of a list. Very useful
Thank you Bridget!
This video is amazing. Literally covers everything I was looking for👏🏾👏🏾
FINALLY A PERSON WHO MADE A VIDEO ANSWERING Virtually all the questions that I had as well as explaining pointedly the difference between microphones etc. I swear I have watched probably two dozen maybe more videos on beginner podcast bundle equipment and all the videos, well to put it bluntly, they all suck. Thank you very much for making this video. You're awesome!
Yay! So happy this was helpful for you!
that's so useful for beginners!
Hey man thanks a lot. I was really overwheld and confused but now it all makes sense. Thank you.
Happy to help :)
Don't give up mate, that was my first day to use soft soft and i will work on it for a long ti!
TNice tutorials is by far the best soft soft basic tutorial, I rember when I just started learning, tNice tutorials was so helpful!! I’ve now been releasing edm
Thank you so much for your tutorials It went from 'nice tutoet science' to simple logic! You have a new subscriber
Yay! Welcome!
Thank you for sharing the information with us
You’re very welcome!
The clap idea is great. Thank you for the tips.
You are so welcome!
Great informative video! Thank you!

So many Gems💎. Thank you
Glad you think so. You're so welcome!
I enjoy this speaker. She makes it more simple and easy to understand for beginners.
OK sure user 😂😂smh this video is not good at all
As pointed out by another person, omnidirectional and cardioid are pick-up patterns. Condenser mics and dynamic mics are two different types of the mechanisms inside the mic. Condensers are preferred because you can be further away from the mic and have better sound but are usually directional… also they require power to operate (phantom power or an internal battery). Dynamic mics are better a lot of times for live music because they are durable.
Great video, so helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
I CAN NOT STRESSSSS HOW LONG I have been looking high and low for the reason why me and my bf echo by each other at first it was obvious what the reason was bc we were by each other in the same room I even thought it was bc of my filters on the mic but then i started seeing other couples with the same setup and they werent echoing soooo i was so confused until i saw the beginning of ur video and u answered my main question straight away it was bc i had a condensor mic i was so annoyed with myself bc I didnt figure it out sooner and i spent a ridiculous amount of money and i have been doing content for 7 years and now trying to start content with my bf and never thought i would be able to do so, so ty for the help on this really. 😍
Just wanted to express how helpful your videos are!! you are extrely good at explaining tNice tutorialngs in-depth but still at a basic level for

informative video good sir, Gracias
I really like your videos very educational. I have been podcasting for about five years now. I started out with a cheap USB mic and gradually ended up where I am now. My vocal chain plays out like this. I use two microphones for my solo podcast, I use a dynamic mic and a condenser mic, I use the Sontronics Corona for my podcast for normal speaking and recording and when I have a special episode or have to do voiceover for the podcast, I use a Cad Audio E100SX for the voiceover. I use Mogami cables that I plug into a Warm Audio WA12 preamp, this is only used for the condenser microphone, So from the Condenser microphone, into the Warm Audio WA12 mic preamp, then into an Audient Interface. I plug the Corona Mic straight into the Audient interface. I use two mics because I want two different mic sounds for different episodes.
Hi! Thank you for the feedback, and thanks for sharing this! This will be very helpful for other users looking for the same effects 🙂
We're curious, why do you prefer 2 different mic sounds?
@@Riversidefm hello,
I use two different microphones purely because of the variety of sound. A dynamic mic sounds good, the one I use, the Corona is crystal clear and it works great in most situations even outside of the studio. The Condenser mic has that sound, when you put a condenser through an outboard preamp, and then into a good interface, you can get a nice warm sounding mic, with clarity. A situation where I would use both mics is when I will go from dynamic to Condenser and that would be when I am using the dynamic mic to record a podcast I would change over from dynamic to Condenser when an ad had to be promoted or another speech, I use the condenser to get the message over in A warm condenser style with clarity. It is probably a set up that few use, but it suits me.
@@Riversidefm my setup for the condenser mic is, the microphone is plugged into a Warm Audio WA12 mic preamp, the the preamp then goes into an Audient interface, the dynamic microphone goes straight into the interface.
this video is freaking awesome thank you so much you're a hero.
Every 20th comment on our channel is asking why we're talking in a bin and there is so much mic bleed from our pair of condenser mics that I almost called the hospital
Yes it can - don't despair!
Hello friends. She completely explained condenser and dynamic mics wrong. She just put up a picture of different polar patterns. The real difference between a dyanmic and a condenser is how easily the mic can pick up sound. A condenser can be spoken into from relativly far away and it will sound fine, but most dynamics need to be spoken really close into. Dynamics also usally have a darker tone due to the proximity effect. I'd just recommend to do your own research and not trust everyone. Btw I recommend buying shure mics for podcasts. Like the sm7b, mv7, sm57. But with a little eq you can make any mic sound great.
Thank you so much for this video guys.I am trying to set up a podcast for 8-12 people and i have my scarlet 18i20 but do i need to purchase a rode caster also to conduct a big group podcast?
Excellent ❤❤❤❤
Glad you think so!
Thx
Finally soone who speaks in a calm way and getting to the point asap
Glad you think so!
It’s okay to feel that why. I felt like that sowhat at the beginning. Just use the love you have for making soft to overpower that feeling
We bought 2 USB condenser mics, recording on one each laptop and when editing to sync up audio there’s an echo of our voices being picked up in each mic track! Is there anyway to cancel out the echo or should we just buy the dynamic mics instead and record with one of those input devices??
Any help would be much appreciated
By any chance would it be recommendable/possible to do a podcast with gopro (in case I also have iphone 14 but I would preper to use the gopro for memory space reasons...)? I have a "Logitech c930 pro" microphone. Any idea on how to connect them? How shall I make it possible for the gopro to not run out of battery? Maybe they are obvious questions but I've never did anything similar and even tho I am 23 y/o, I'm a tech boomer hahah
thank u
You're welcome!
Finally a working method
Are you using Producer edition?? What do y'all recomnd if I want to make s but not record my voice or tutorial?
Hello, togheather with my friends we decided to record our RPG session and upload it on youtube. We're group of 5 persons playing togheather around one table. We got almost everything ready but sound. Im wondering how we can record 5 of us with good sound quality. I have blue yeti and behringer404 (audio interface for my guittar). One of my friends told me to look for shutgun microphone but we can buy just one to place it above our heads. Could you give me some advice will that microphone be optimal for our demand? Thank you in advance
Man for real
With your videos my learning curve will shrink drastically. Thank you.
Happy to help!
6:39 what exactly do the headphones do to prevent audio bleed?
version fine? Also are the extra plug-ins worth the extra $100?
Can I use a Scarlett 18i21 ?
what cheap audio interface would you recommend for three people?
Amazing game
Hello, this is by FAR the best video I've seen on TH-cam regarding multi-person podcasting. Thank you for that.
We will be recording 4-5 people (in person) for our podcast (no video). My understanding is we need 4-5 Dynamic XLR microphones (Samson Technologies Q2U, as recommended)....to plug into an audio interface with 4+ mic inputs (we'll follow your advice and get Scarlet audio interface). I am assuming the Scarlett interface plugs into a Mac, or iPad(?) via usb cable ? (Lastly..are earphones really needed? ... we are aiming for a low budget production and currently don't need the end product to be outstanding quality.
If there is any other advice you can provide in regard to our setup, it will be so appreciated! Thank you so much.
We're so glad we could help you get started!
The Scarlett interface will plug into your mac via USB-C (if you have a significantly older mac, you will need a USB to USB-C adapter) and it will also work on iPad Pro.
We would recommend that at least 1 person wears headphones (at least for a test recording) just to make sure that everything sounds okay and all microphones are levelled. It's much easier to fix any audio issues before recording than in post production!
If you want to avoid purchasing all of the equipment, definitely check out Riverside.fm as a way to record your episode. If you aren't aiming for studio quality, you can use your computers' microphones to record. This will make the whole process much more straightforward! We also have an app and you can record using your phone's microphone.
Check out our platform walkthrough for more information: th-cam.com/video/b2eRWWjefcc/w-d-xo.html
Here's a video about the easiest ways to record: th-cam.com/video/rZcIv6xxL_s/w-d-xo.html
I know she said USB can be tricky for multiple people in person, however I have no issues and it’s easy once you completed your setup in your software. I use USB mics and purchased a USB with multiple ports from Amazon.
The Scarlet gets mad expensive when you get more than 2 XLR inputs. If you're just starting, I'd recommend just getting 1 usb mic and recording everyone on that. You can make it sound pretty ok in post, and it's better than spending $800 on a set up you'll use 3 times
Please l have three usb mics for my podcasting .. what equipment do l need in order to connect three usb
If you're a complete beginner to soft production then soft is imo the easiest daw that you can get, I started off with it.. If you have a little bit
Great advice!
What would be the recommendation to reduce editing process and instead, focus to the person that is speaking, then sync the external audio; JRE, Tim Ferris, Lex Fridman, etc style.
Really cool recommendations!
Riverside actually has a great feature for this in the Editor! It's called AI Speaker view.
AI Speaker View analyzes the recording and automatically switches whoever is speaking into full screen 1 second before they speak, making for a seamless transition. By analyzing the recording, AI Speaker View switches the video if someone actually speaks, and not for unwanted interruption like a sneeze. We are the first in the world to automate this.
You find this option in Editor > Layout > AI Speaker View
If I can't get tNice tutorials soft, the other option is to purchase a keyboard with the softs already installed [Roland VR-09]. If I have to go tNice tutorials
I got Scarlett 18i8 but it won’t let me set up multitrack in obs or audacity
I've been playing on garageband for a couple weeks and just got the trial of softs. I was worried there wouldn't be any clear tutorials, but
Glad we could help!
can I use the scarlet 2i2 for 4 people
the demos. I don't know if tNice tutorials is a clue, but when i pause or stop the soft, there's an echo wNice tutorialch very slowly fades out.
Dw bro ADHD helps out so much with soft soft i find. day dreaming always gives new ideas so when i snap back i got that vision ready
Thanks for this video. My question: if I use Riverside, while most of the time we are not together when we record te podcast. Should it be a option when we are togother in the same room, to just use two laptops, 2 mics, 2 headphones and Riverside? So the same setup as we use normaly?
Hi Peter! Great question. Yes this will work. There are tons of factors that will decide the quality and how much echo, if any, is occurring (how sensitive are the mics, what is the mic's pickup pattern, how big is the room, etc.). Definitely use headphones and run a quick test recording first to check for any issues. If there is audio bleed, you should enable echo cancellation.
Depending on your equipment, you could also use 1 computer, 2 mics feeding into the same input, and 1 camera. This would result in one file with both users instead of separate tracks for each, but is another option.
what about Logic Pro x? for audio
If i'm doing a podcast with someone do we both need to have riverside
If I’m using the rodecaster pro and riverside.fm, do I hit record both on the rodecaster and in riverside at the same time to record my podcast?
Hi David, find all info at support.riverside.fm/hc/en-us/articles/5427437798557-Isolate-Tracks-With-a-Mixer-or-Rodecaster-Pro
When I made tNice tutorials, there was no working Mac version. On mac, a right click is a 2 finger press on the track pad.
I have Maonocaster E2 and it works great, but can anybody tell me what audio interface I should grab to add +2 additional microphones?
For 4 XLR inputs, we recommend the Rodecaster Pro 2 or Scarlett: a.co/d/6AC7Kml
What do you do to avoid the second/third guest's voice being picked up by the other person's mic? When doing a podcast in person? So for instance - if you have 4 people and they speak over each other, then you get a doubling of their voice in the other mics, creating echoey sounds/phasing? Is this a mic TYPE or PLACEMENT issue? Or??? How does one navigate this?

Ah dayum!! Official.
how do you add podcaster's name on the screen while they are talking and how do you add topics to the screen as you discuss different topics?
As of right now, this has to be done in an external editor!
@@Riversidefm what is the process called?
Damn you bro
Hi. My friend and I are planning to start recording podcasts together, but we can't agree on whether the quality difference between expensive and affordable microphones is really necessary. I suggest buying at least an RE20 or an SM7B, while my friend prefers microphones in the Podmic price range. Do you think the difference between these two microphones would be noticeable for listeners? Do you think we should go all out and choose established, high-end products, or would more budget-friendly microphones suffice? Thank you for your recommendations. Please help me, I've been sleepless for four days, researching only this topic. I admit that I am overly obsessed, but I want to do my job properly and cleanly. I am very talkative and warm-hearted, never hesitant to laugh, and I usually laugh a lot. I used to do Twitch streaming before, so I have knowledge about how to gain viewers. Now, I want to sleep, please tell me which microphone and sound card I should get...
SM7B need a really good preamp as it need more gain and cheap pre's could add noise. If you work with a cheap interface RE20 or others would be better then.
Which audio interface should I buy?

a point of clarification between DYNAMIC and CONDENSER microphones - THE MIC BEING USED IN THIS VIDEO IS A CONDENSOR (Audio Technical AT2020). The description used in the video is actually POLARITY (or pattern control). A mic that picks up 360° is Omni direction and a mic that captures sounds in front is Cardiod (or Uni-Directional). All that to say, there are CONDENSER mics that are Cardiod and most higher quality CONDENSERs will have a switch to choose POLARITY patterns (omni, figure-8, cardiod, hypercardiod). A CONDENSER mic is a good option for podcasters (as demonstrated in this video) and will give you a more accurate reproduction of your voice though recognize they are generally more expensive and delicate.
DYNAMIC microphones (like the Shure SM7b and EV RE20) capture sound using a different internal mechanism and are considered to be more durable and less expensive than CONDENSER microphones but not as accurate.
Agreed I have Condenser mics only and the sound is amazing!
I’m doing a 2 person podcast with 2 usb mics and need help figuring out how to connect them…
Are you doing this virtually or in person?
It’ll be in person, I’m probably going to use a webcam and just make sure that we’re not interrupting each other while we’re filming…
what about the zoom h4n?
Also a great option!
Ima get the 0 dollar one is it rlly good or nah?
Audacity works just fine, you can always upgrade later!
Do you need the interface for a solo podcast?
Not if you have a USB mic!
