My Podcasting Setup

Uploaded to flickr by Steve Lacey at 23 Mar '05, 11.40pm PST.
Here's my podcasting setup: Windows XP SP2 (P4 3.2GHz, 1GB RAM, PCI Express mobo, SATA drives) running Cubase SX3. A Shure SM58 Beta into an E-MU 1820 audio breakout box. Monitored via Behringer headphone distribution amp.
All printed effects done in Cubase. Audio direct monitoring and headphone mix/effects done in the 1820 box. Zero latency. Yum.

Do you use Skype on your podcast? (I am just about to listen to one)
If you do how do you go about recording it?
I record my interviews with it and have come up with a ingenious way using 2 headsets.
So my kit is just a laptop 2 headsets (one bluetooth) and Cool Edit Pro

Funny you should mention that. I installed Skype on the machine a couple of days ago and this evening tried to get it working.
Here's my problem: The 1820 is an awesome audio card/breakout box - it has many inputs/outputs and great UI for routing them, etc...
I even do this: In order to record iTunes stuff whilst recording, in the 1820 I route Windows Wave out to a channel strip in the mixer, this gets routed to an ASIO output which is picked up by Cubase as another input. Great stuff.
But! I can't get the mike input to route to the Windows Recording device, so Skype can't see it. As my machine has onboard audio that is currently disabled, I think I'm just going to use that as for a mike input purely for skype. That way I can record my voice to cubase directly through the 1820 via Mike 1 as normal, output from Skype gets to Cubase the same way iTunes does and my voice to Skype goes through the 2nd Mike (which I won't actually be recording).
Does that make any sense? ;-)
So I got it all working.
I just enabled the motherboard audio and connected SPDIF out from the E-MU 1820 to the SPDIF in of the motherboard audio.
Then in the 1820 mixer I routed a new send from the mike to the SPDIF out and hey presto the mike is available to skype.
I need to diagram this ;-)
Ian, we should do a podcast...
wowow looks really great, I really like the picture. I am just about to understand how the whole podcasting process works, because I am looking forward to establish a educational podcasting for the management school.
So just about to buy some equipment like this type of mic: http://www.shure.com/photos/bigones/sm2.jpg what do u think, or I should better use the one that u use,. and also thinking of buying this audio: http://www.multima.no/upload/images/150x150/M-Audio%20Audiosport%20Quattro.jpg which will help me to use four mics at the same time. Anyway I really like the way u setup your podacsting..
I'm having a headache on my podcasting the output is so low (the voice)and it's all on 10 on my mixer.. I use Acid 4.0 to record from my mixer and mic into a usb cable into my lab top
Help
