Well… not yet anyway!
After being disappointed at the poor audio quality of the recorded webinar I hosted last week, I decided to splash out on some new recording equipment.
After researching on the internet and watching as many review videos on Youtube as I could find, I opted for the Rode Podcaster. I also forked out the Studio Arm so I could enjoy hands-free recording and combined both pieces of equipment cost just over £200 ($335).
A little expensive perhaps but I want the content I produce to be as professional and to as high a quality as I possibly can achieve so it will be worth it!
I will be able to produce sharp sounding tutorial videos and interviews which are as clear as a bell. The webinar recordings will also benefit from better audio quality even after being converted by Go To Webinar into WMV hell.
See for yourself in my new home office / recording studio (Tony Blackburn eat your heart out!)
Plus, for all you DVD extras fans, here is the official “unboxing” video:

All you need now is a gang or a sidekick and you can be the next Chris Moyles. Radio One watch out!!!!
One a serious note, I hope you have hours of fun with your new toy if can only improve an already excellent service. Cheers Mark

Hey Dave,
I’ve been watching you from the sidelines launch your way through your webinar series.
I’ve gotta tell ya – it’s pretty impressive.
Obviously coming out of the same mentorship program as yourself (Alex Jeffreys), I understand the steps you’re doing with this. And you’ve got your own style going, you deliver exceptional information and your commitment to quality is bound to be not only audio related but also content related.
All I can say up to now is WOW!

I need to get a studio arm too, right now I just have one of those tripod desk stands but it means I have to bend down to get close to it or put the mic on a box which blocks my view of the monitor

Hi Chris,
Thanks for stopping by and leaving me a comment, I have read your blog for some time now!
The studio arm is great, you can move the mic anywhere you want 360 degrees. It’s so much more convenient than using a desk stand because then you are stuck in one place whereas you can move about more with the mic on an arm.
Keep up the good work and I’ll be over again soon!

Hello David,
I enjoy what you have to offer and say regarding one building his and/or her business via your blog post .. I have a slight predicament or dilemma here in the US of A, I’m a street pilot for a state and your live webinars are not coexisting with my time schedual in my time zone, not your fault or my own it’s just how it is, however, will you be presenting your presentations in video format for view for those of us who can not attend your live look-over-your-should webinars ????? let me know because I would love to start from the beginning to understand where you are going with this…

Hi David,
I know that feeling well, when my new gadget arrives. What a rush eh?
Sounds good as well. Looking forward to hearing your results.
All the best,
David
