TECH NOTES:
Unlike the first two interviews, I hooked up a Behringer B-1 (Large-Diaphragm Cardioid Condenser Microphone) to an M-Audio FireWire Solo (recording interface), which connected to my Apple G4 laptop. I recorded directly into GarageBand 2.0, where I edited and mixed MP3 files.

TECH NOTES:
Like the first recording in April, I hooked up a Behringer XM8500 (dynamic vocal mic) to an M-Audio FireWire Solo (recording interface), which connected to my Apple G4 laptop. I recorded directly into GarageBand 2.0, where I edited and mixed MP3 files. Almost found out the hard way that GarageBand limits you to 999 bars of music (35 minutes at 120 bpm).

TECH NOTES: For this recording, I hooked up a Behringer XM8500 (dynamic vocal mic) to an M-Audio FireWire Solo (recording interface), which connected to my Apple G4 laptop. I recorded directly into GarageBand 2.0, where I edited and mixed MP3 files. For my first recording for a podcast, it was quick and dirty, only because I wanted to see how easy and cheap this could be.
