I recently upgraded my audio equipment to get back into podcasting and other forms of content creation. Here’s what I went with:
| Microphone | Shure SM7B Vocal Dynamic Microphone |
| Audio Interface | Scarlett Solo 3rd Gen 2-in, 2-out USB Audio Interface |
| Inline Mic Activator | Cloud Microphones Cloudlifter CL-1 |
| Boom | Blue Compass Premium Tube-Style Broadcast Boom Arm |
| Accessories | Mic Stand Extension 1/4” Male to 1/8” Female Stereo Headphone Adapter |
The aforementioned hardware ensures that I have great raw input, but some post-processing plugins are also helpful! I use the following Waves (referral link) plugins:
- Greg Wells VoiceCentric
- NS1 Noise Suppressor
- Playlist Rider
- WLM Plus Loudness Meter
I use Logic Pro as my digital audio workstation (DAW). Here’s a screenshot of my workflow mid-project.
