Resources

Since creating great content is a huge part of creating courses that last, there are many resources you may want to access in order to develop and deliver your content. This list will continue to grow as I find and try additional resources for creating and delivering content.

Equipment

When you are testing your first audio recording, using the built-in microphone on your computer is fine. When you want to create a professional quality product, you need a better mic. Fortunately, one can be had without breaking the bank.

I use and love the ATR-2100. This mic has a great sound for the price and has the ability to work in a USB port, so you don’t have to invest in a preamp when you’re just getting started. XLR cables also come with the mic, so you can add the preamp when desired. A preamp allows you to further improve the sound you capture from your m

Definitely add a windscreen to the microphone.

More Equipment information and a full studio tour coming soon.
