Where to place my Podcaster?

You will find that where you position your Podcaster will alter the 

quality of the sound.

Environment and background noise will vary every time a 

microphone is moved to a different location. The most successful 

method to optimize the sound you want is to try various positions 

and isolate the recording environment from external noise 

sources as much as possible.

Proximity effect is an increased bass response which happens 

when you are close to the microphone. This can be used in a 

positive way to enhance the quality of your voice, but be careful 

as being too close may increase the bass response too much which 

will distort the sound.

If you would like to learn more on how to optimize your podcaster  

visit the 

 Podcaster website (www.rodepodcaster.com) and 

view the online tutorials.

Connecting headphones to your Podcaster

One of the cool features of your Podcaster is the in-built, high 

level, headphone amplifier.

Simply connect the 3.5mm jack from your headphones, and 

adjust the volume control on the microphone and you have direct 

monitoring of the sound from the microphone.

The advantage of connecting the headphones directly to the 

microphone is that you are able to ‘hear’ exactly what you are 

recording before it is recorded. This allows for more accurate fine 

tuning and should reduce the need to re-record as problems can 

be detected earlier in the recording process.
