Waxxi - a new kind of podcast

A review here of Waxxi, a new kind if podcast seems kind of chaotic. It sounds like a type of Internet phone-in. I can see a case for live discussion on an occasional basis in our own www.absolutely-intercultural.com efforts. But first I must conquer the issue of sound quality. We released show 4 at the weekend which is the first one I have produced myself and I must say that the sound quality is much worse than I would wish. I have finally succumbed and bought a USB microphone and sound card which should be delivered very soon. I hope that it does the trick because it'll be a pain to return if it fails to live up to expectations.

Keywords: podcast, sound, Waxxi

Anne. You might find episode 22 of Knitcast (www.knitcast.com)interesting. It's a round table discussion about podcasting equipment with a bunch of knitting podcasters. They spend quite a bit of theor time talking about their kit. My Partner, Brenda puts out Cast-On (www.cast-on.com) and I'm sure she would be happy to share knowledge of sound kit. Her son is a music tech student, so he helped extensively with the setup.
