I do the exact same type of broadcast too. I also have Windows 7x64, i have a
usb M64 producer mic.  All I do is set up the stereo mix (what u hear setting)
and use that has my mic in Skype.  No echo, guest or co host hears
everything.  Also run through sam the same way because i am live.

Subject: [podcasters] Mixing Without a Mixer


 
I just started a podcast and have 3 shows under my belt. I use a Blue Snowball
USB mic for my voice. My co-host and I use Skype and record the stream to
produce the audio.

I have an intro I play and I insert audio clips from a soundboard at appropriate
times during the show.

I have software that allows me to simultaneously record the microphone stream
and the speaker output. This allows me to capture both voices and the soundboard
but my co-host doesn't hear the soundboard output.

To overcome this, I use a laptop to play the intro and soundboard and have it as
a third "caller" in Skype. This way, it gets recorded and both my co-host and I
can hear it.

Short of purchasing a mixer (and a non-USB mic) does anyone know of a way to get
the soundboard output to be transmitted via Skype without having to use a
separate computer to do it? The method I'm using really screws with the audio
levels.

I guess I'm really looking for a software mixer or patch panel of some sort.

Thanks,
Joe

p.s. Both of my computers are running Windows 7 Ultimate x64

Help!

I've been using mobileme to host my podcasts, allowing people to download them
as a file share.  The actual feed comes from my site, but the enclosure link is
mobileme.

Now, mobileme is killing idisk, which means we can't host and share things from
it anymore.

what do I do?

any suggestions?

the podcasts come out twice a month and are about 40mb.

do I need web hosting JUST for the podcasts?

I'm reluctant to do anything to mess with the itunes feed at all, which is
working properly so long as I have the file in an enclosure link.  I'm using
blogger and eventually I'll want my own domain but as I said I'm a little scared
of messing with it.

Meanwhile, what should I do for file sharing?

I like having them be files that people can download, because that way they can
do it from my site or from my digest, as well as subscribe on itunes.

The typical approach for most podcasters is to separate web hosting from
hosting the MP3 files, which is typically referred to as "media hosting."

The reason for this is that if you go to a web hosting company and put a
bunch of 30-50Mb MP3 files on the site and they start getting thousands of
requests for those files, the web hosting company is going to kick you out.
No matter how much they advertise their service as "unlimited" this or
"unlimited" that. The fact is that they depend on there being a very low
bandwidth usage usage per web site and their terms of service contracts
give them pretty much unilateral power to kick you out if the stuff you are
hosting becomes too costly for them.

The good news is that there are companies that specialize in hosting media
files and they have not problem serving up your 30-50Mb files thousands of
times a day. The two market leaders in media hosting for podcasts are
libsyn.com and bluburry.com.

I happen to use libsyn.com but I have heard nothing but good things about
blubrry.com Their price structures are a little bit different, but very
competitive with each other. So I'd recommend you look at both and move
your files from mobileme to one of these over time. I just recently
migrated about 50 episodes of my podcast from a web hosting service to
libsyn. It took me a while because these services charge by how many Mb you
upload to their service per month. So in addition to uploading my new
episodes as they came out, I had to upload the old episodes and I had to
plan carefully a schedule that would let me do both while staying under my
monthly quota. Of course, as I uploaded the old episodes, I had to change
the web pages for the episode to refer to the new location of the files on
the new hosting service. That was tedious, manual, and error prone, but I
got through it.

Hope that helps,
Calvin

Howdy all,

On my current libsyn account, when I publish an episode, it gives me a bit
of java script which I can embed in a web page to put a flash-based player
for the file on the page. Which is fine except that there are a fair number
of browser environments that don't support flash. Does anyone know if
libsyn is planning on supporting HTML5-based embed code? Or maybe they do
and I just haven't figured out how to enable it.

Thanks
Calvin

thanks, this is very helpful!  I don't have thousands of listeners-- hundreds at
most, not counting those on itunes (because I have no idea).

I too would rather they not just flash play on the site, because it can crash
people's pages.

these are good suggestions.

someone suggested dropbox as a short term measure--- do you know if people have
to own dropbox for it to work?

Hi Gwen -

I'm going to first qualify this by saying that I don't know anything about the
service, so I can't really tell you much about it.  I'm sure they have help
pages to get you though.  But Amazon S3 (Simple Storage Service) might be a
solution.  They have a free tier, but also scale to many sizes.  Check it out
at: http://aws.amazon.com/s3/

Dropbox isn't a media server, so that might not be a viable solution for you.

Good luck.

If your hosting your own site on wordpress you should try our powerpress
podcast plugin. It has a HTML5 player with flash fallback. There is even
a embed option you can enable that if you want people to share your
video or audio like people do on YouTube you can turn on that option. It
is critical that if you use a HTML5 player from a third party source
that it have flash fallback.

If you are using libsyn for your website hosting you are limited by what
they make available which is why we recommend all podcasters have their
very own .com and then of course host there media where they see fit...

Hi everyone,
A few years ago I posted to this group about some research I conducted on
independent audio podcasters. I am pleased to announce that results from this
project will be published in the journal New Media & Society in 2012 (yes, the
wheels of academia grind slowly!). You can read an abstract of the paper here:
http://nms.sagepub.com/content/early/2011/10/18/1461444811420848.abstract

In addition, I would like to announce that I am conducting a follow up survey
this month, and I would like to ask for your help. Thus far we have been combing
through the iTunes podcast listings and inviting participants via email. It's
possible that some of you on this list have already received that invitation.
However, I would like to cover as many angles as possible, so I would like to
invite others to participate in the survey.

To qualify, you must be at least 18 years old, and have created at least one
podcast that was not *originally* affiliated with a traditional media
organization, like a radio station (if you started independently, and then later
got picked up by a station, you would still qualify).

The survey is open to video and audio podcasters. It is open to podcasters in
any country, but it is only available in English.

The survey URL is:
https://www.hostedware.com/secure/hs/takesurvey.asp?c=podcast2012

If you have any questions, or would like a copy of my forthcoming paper, please
feel free to email me at my university address: k.markman@...

I would also love any suggestions as to other message boards, directories, etc.
where I can reach podcasters. You also do not have to be currently producing a
podcast to complete the survey, so if you know any former podcasters, please
feel free to share the URL.

I personally feel like podcasting is a very exciting phenomenon that does not
get enough attention from the wider academic community, so one of my goals is to
use this research to make podcasting and podcasters more visible to academia and
the world at large.

Thanks for your help!

a paywall. You research you conducted before is only available on a pay
basis so why should we continue to feed you info when the material you

Hello, fellow members.  I truly enjoy the insight provided in this group and I
thought it was time to make a post to seek some advice from folks here.

I have been podcasting for a bit and have a nice home studio setup.  I have one
active podcast I post weekly episodes for each week and I have another starting
next week.  I have several others I want to get started, but my question is
about one of those potential podcasts.

One of the fun things about podcasting is that you can reach unserved or
underserved segments of a niche market.  Plus, you have plenty of freedom in
podcasting.  We all know those things, but what if I have expertise and passion
about a topic that is already being covered?  Should I not produce a podcast
because someone else already is?

I run a professional, competition barbecue team in the summertime and I am also
a certified judge.  I am extremely passionate about the topic and want to do a
podcast on it, but one already exists.  It has been around consistently for
several years.  It had poor quality originally as it was on blogtalk.  Now it is
away from that, which has increased the audio quality, but they do a live show
on Tuesday nights and I hear and see (cause it is a video podcast as well) some
issues.  He frequently drops calls, has laggy content, etc.  These problems go
into each episode because it is live and wouldn't be an issue since i would be
pre-recorded.  I also don't want to bash the show.  He certainly provides good
information and serves a solid audience and has plenty of sponsors.

So the big question is, do I start my own podcast or not because one exists on
the topic?  I want to offer my passion and expertise, but I don't want to be
viewed as trying to steal listeners from another podcast, etc.  I always try to
play nice with everyone.

Looking forward to the feedback.

Wow!  I think it is unfortunate that several of you have mistaken the point. 
Kris, is a college professor and collects the data for academic purposes and the
article is printed in a professional journal.  She doesn't command the price for
the article, the publisher does.  The data is also not meant for us perhaps.  It
is like any other survey someone asks you to complete.  You don't get paid to
complete it.  You do it to contribute your information to the research.

I believe in podcasting and I want to do anything possible to show people that
it is a viable alternative to traditional media sources and that it is growing
and vibrant.  After her post today, I gladly submitted my information to her
survey.  It took less than 5 minutes and if it helps bring attention to
podcasting I am all for it.

You aren't giving a college professor some priceless data she is going to sell
for millions of dollars by participating in the survey.  You are aiding academic
research.  It's not a conspiracy.  But if there is a conspiracy podcast out
there that wants to do an upcoming episode on it, I am glad to debate it.  :)

Just my humble thoughts.

I say go for it. There are 6 billion people on the planet. If you cross over a
little, it's not going to hurt either of you.

In fact, I'd reach out to the producer and let them know your intent. Podcasting
is a such a great medium in that everyone tends to want to help others get
started (thus this forum). They may be more than willing to offer insights.

You may find yourself as a guest on that show doing cross promotion. :)

Nicely said Brian.

I just had a great call with Kris. Her intent is solid, and I encourage all of
you to participate.

She should be updating here soon with more details.

Todd (and everyone else),
Yes, the linked article is behind a paywall, but I am more than happy to email a
preprint copy to anyone who is interested. I know that the way that academic
publishing works is very frustrating, but I believe very strongly in public
knowledge sharing.

I also want to reiterate that I plan to make the results of the current study
available to this group and anyone else who is interested once I have finished
data collection, as I did with the previous study. When I posted my results here
the last time, I received quite a lot of very useful feedback, and that feedback
helped me to shape the current study. I absolutely will give back to the
community by sharing my results.

I apologize if my previous message made anyone feel like I was asking them to
pay for information, that was not my intention at all. I linked to the abstract
so people could get a sense of what the article was like. But please feel free
to email me if you would like a copy.

Thank you all for your help!
-Kris

Brian, I agree with Michael.  Go for it.  If you were on the air at the
same time and day as the competing show, that might be a problem.  But with
podcasting, people can easily listen to both shows whenever it is
convenient for them.  I do a weekly podcast of old-time radio shows, and
though there are a ton of shows posted all over the internet, I get my
share of listeners who appreciate what I'm doing.

What's the topic you're considering, by the way?

And are you in Indy?  I grew up on the west side (Ben Davis HS!).

Best,

---Dan

Todd: have you ever done demographic surveys for your advertising network? If
so, where can we view the results?

Academia operates on completely screwed-up economic models. It's not the fault
of individual academics. Heck, they're rarely even paid for journal publication;
their reward for their work is (maybe) getting to stay employed.

Have Fun,
Steve Eley

Thanks for the messages thus far and I am in Indianapolis, Dan.  Just south
actually in Franklin, although I am not from here originally.  I am from
southern Illinois, just outside of St. Louis.

As for the topic I am interested in that has another similar show already, is a
podcast about barbecue competitions.  I run a professional competition team that
competes in KCBS sanctioned contests in the summer.  Cooking and competing with
barbecue is truly a passion.  While I know I have the passion and the expertise,

Just because the other podcaster beat you in terms of having a podcast on
this subject really doesn't mean anything. Using the same logic we would only
have had one comedy on TV or one action movie.

     Your reason for wanting to do a podcast on this subject is due to your
interest also. You don't need to ask permission, apologize, explain or invite
the other host on your show.
     I mean, if the other guy was your best friend and you had taken a vow to not
have a similar podcast, then I could understand, but otherwise you've a wide
open road in front of you. Many programs, product, etc. are based on improving
something that is already out there. It's competition. There are no locked in
topics or monopolies.

Todd,

Perhaps if you read Kris' entire post you would have seen, " If you have any
questions, or would like a copy of my forthcoming paper, please feel free to
email me at my university address:"

I have contacted Kris and she is willing to share the paper.

As others have noted, this is academic research, so you are not giving away a
million dollar idea here, just your opinion.

Whether you participate in the current study or ask Kris for a copy of the paper
is voluntary.  I see no need to flame her.

Just my opinion. :-)

There's rarely any problem with two or more people doing the same subject. Just
look at anime or video game podcasts. There's thousands of them. In fact it's
probably best to give the listeners some variety. Consider that there's 24 hours
in a single day, so that even if someone listens to every episode of the other
show they're still going to have plenty of time to listen to your show. And what
is the producer of the other show going to listen to?

There's rarely a problem with doing a podcast on a lesser known subject. In fact
it's good that you have a topic to talk about. There's tons of podcasts about
people talking about just whatever's on their mind and very few of them are
worth listening to.

I don't think that Todd "flamed" her, and frankly I had the same thoughts when I
first followed the link. Perhaps some clarification in her original letter that
her link would take you to a page which required payment to see the paper. She
supplied the link, Todd didn't Google it. Now you're ripping on a guy who gave
podcasters Power Press, one of our most important tools to make posting and
tracking our our sites easy.
     If there was a misunderstanding, fine, I think everyone is cool with that.
But if this is just a generic protect the academic thing, then perhaps the
academic needs to develop some clarity with her letter and explain some
controversial points that will be found when someone follows that link.
      I did take her latest survey and had planned on writing directly to her for
a copy of the final paper when it was done, but this still doesn't change the
original impression when I followed the link; which was the same one Todd had.
Donald, maybe you should back off and let things be.

Hello all,
In the interest of sharing, I have posted the slides from a presentation I gave
in 2010 that covers data from my original 2008-09 survey. These data were not
able to be included in the paper that is being published in New Media & Society.
The analysis in this presentation covers the open-ended survey question: How did
you decide on the content of your podcast?

The presentation is available on Slideshare:
http://www.slideshare.net/KrisMM/markmanpodcasting2010

If you would like a copy and do not have a Slideshare account, again, please
feel free to email me.
Sincerely,
Kris

If I recall correctly, provided you configured it properly, when browsers like
the iphone or iPad access the player it should fall back to html5 compatibility.
This has been a function of that player since the first iPhone was released.  
So it should work for those platforms, but it's not as good as a proper html5
player with flash fallback.  We had designed one for Marc Maron that was on his
libsyn page, but i don't know what happened to it.  It seems to be replaced by
another html5 player.  You may want to check with support if they can hook you
up with that one.

I did a detailed analysis of all the costs associated with amazon s3 and I
concluded that for my podcast at least libsyn was a better deal than amazon
s3. The problem with s3 is you pay per byte downloaded and as your podcast
becomes more popular it quickly becomes more expensive than libsyn. As I
recall, if you're getting more downloads than 400 per episode, libsyn was a
better deal.

My attitude is that you should plan for success and therefore I want with
libsyn instead.

On the other hand, amazon s3's free tier might be just fine if you're not
planing on that many downloads.

Kris, Donald, Group

I get asked at least 2-3 times a month to provide input on the new media
space, academics, journalist, people writing books people fishing for
info etc.. Up until recently I have given of my time and information
freely. Sadly what has caused me to become critical, is that I am always
told by the person doing the research/asking questions that they will
provide a copy of the research once it is complete.  More often than not
ends up not happening thus may reluctance to share.

It has to be a two way street, after all I love to share info with the
11,000 podcasters we work with, anytime we can feed them cool data
points we try to do so.

Kris responded saying she is happy to share the findings, and I am happy
she is doing so, and retract my initial criticism.   9 out of 10 times
sadly this does not happen.

My response was obviously taken as me being against academics. But even
academics are now protesting the pay-per-play journal system, case in
point Elsiver has come under a lot of heat lately on this topic and over
8500 academics are now publishing to open journals, and boycotting Elsiver.

Seeing many of the colleges, universities are getting federal, state
funding it only make sense that if a tax payer is paying the bill, the
research papers should be published in the open when it is not of a
classified nature.

One thing you can do as well. If your using PowerPress Podcasting plugin, it has
a HTML5 player Audio or Video that you can select. If the browser hitting the

fallback.
