Part 1: Dynamic Microphones for Podcasting

Today’s episode is part one of a two part series on microphones for podcasting, live-streaming, and voice over. In this part, we cover dynamic microphones which are often a good option for podcasting and live-streaming because they generally pick up less ambient sound when you’re recording in a space with some ambient noise or is not acoustically treated.
