The mics have nothing to do with having the ear, a usb mic sends the same signal as an xlr mic digitally it just depends how well they are made and comes down to the internals of the mic, because its youtube and not a radio station you can sound extremely professional with the right software. I can make a $45 mic sound like my $1000 Neumann mic with obs because the technology behind audio is basic it just has to be 16 bits at 44.1khz to sound nice to the ear. Your set up is very expensive for a podcast and looks great.
The most informative video I’ve ever seen on this subject. I love the gear talk, but the best part was the work flow portion. I’m sure we could all benefit with a part two that shows us how to connect everything and recording a mock podcast and up until the final product.
All that I see in what you do is excellent. Like you say this is about more than having ideas and being good in front of the camera. There are more and more technical things about all of this, and you are definitely giving me ideas and making me pay more attention to the equipment that I purchase. Keep up the good work.
This video is outstanding! I lost my server/bartending jobs during the pandemic. At now 56 years old it is tough to pivot. I started piecing together computers PC/MacBook Pro more recently and then other equipment so that I could live stream or record videos. I recently started interviewing both Pro's and Joe's about their passion for mountain biking and sharing the stoke. Right now, it is a learning process and something I am passionate about. It isn't a money maker at all. Seeing you outfit your studio has potentially given me a business idea on how to maybe use my already purchased equipment. I live in Massachusetts, so perhaps what you are doing with podcasts could be viable here. I am going to watch Part 2 now. Thank you for your video, and a wonderful presentation. All the best to you!
Do it, Don. I'm always happy to hear of people using this info for themselves. I think it's a viable business and has been improving for me. It's still not the only source I rely on however. Best of luck!
I spent 3 days looking through youtube for exactly this. You have given me a turnkey solution; I am literally ordering everything as-is per your recommendations and having my contractor install and setup the room exactly the same. You have saved me dozens of hours of research and thousands in mistakes. I literally owe you one sir; I'll make a video of the whole process and give you credit for all on my upcoming channel. THANK YOU!
I'm so happy to hear! Good luck and glad the video was helpful. There's an updated version of this video on the channel if you wanted to see what our setup looks like nowadays.
Hey, just as a tip, you can use an EQ to open up your voice and make it sound even better than it already is. I can hear some nasaly frequencies that dominate your voice or maybe the mic is picking it up like that but you can correct it in the EQ and make your voice sound more open, warm and even more easier to listen to! It's is one of the best ways to customise your voice. Think of it as colour grading but for audio. It makes everything pop even more and will also make the overall quality of production for a podcast better. Honestly, I can make my ATR2100X sound like an SM7B by just tuning the mic to be flat in response and then copy the sound signature of the Shure mic and I'm done! It's an amazing tool along with a ton of other effects than you can layer on top of voices to make them sound amazing like compression or limiters or maybe even doing a stereo spread or a multi channel spread that outlines where the audio is coming from like in a surround sound setup! There's a plethora of things you can do to take everything up quite a few notches but there is the added work of actually learning all those things and then applying them to the audio too. All of this is just a friendly suggestion but I would recommend that you play around with the EQ a bit!
This is something I've been meaning to do! Atem control software has a built in system, and I need to play around with it. Just haven't yet. My ear and patience is lesser these days, but I'm sure you are right that it would help. Thanks for the tip.
@@AliArifVlogs I'm from Sweden, so excuse my bad English. But which frequencies you need to adjust depends on many different things. Resonance from the environment, how the microphone picks up the sound, male voice, female voice, even your clothes have an effect. So it's hard to give a specific answer, but start trying between 100-500hz. Where men's warmer voice is around 100-300 Hz and women's around 250-500 Hz.
@@TheStudioBusiness Don’t bother with the ATEM audio software. You have a Rodecaster Pro that will take care of all that for you. There are presets that you can start from then shape from there.
I am just starting up my own video podcast. Thank you for sharing, the inspiration is fantastic. I am an amateur photographer and I can really appreiciate how much you have managed to create a great atmosphere with the lighting.
I like how I was thinking “ boom mics would be nice with this set up. Then boom you hit us with the facts about the tapping and fidgeting. Great video and even better advice. Big ups and keep grinding, love from Houston,Tx.
This is literally the set up I’m going for I bought all of the equipment and then came across you video and it’s the exact same idea!!!!! I feel a bit more confident about this set up now that I can visually see it I just can’t wait to put it together all the gear comes in tomorrow 😎
Hi! How do you connect your procaster to your atem mini? Do you use a balanced quarter inch jack to 3.5mm and plug it directly into the atem or is there something in between the two devices that allow for them to play nice with each other? Thanks and i love your work!
In my six months of research for a How-To video on setting up a podcast room for my students, this is the BEST one I’ve found! The “problem” I have is that our gear is used for other projects due to our budget. What I mean is that the lights, cameras and mics we also use for other projects or school events/activities especially if we have to stream. But your video is going to help me convince my administrators to approve a separate budget so that our podcast studio equipment is just used for that. Maybe I’ll present them an idea of having an admin podcast for weekly announcements and message to parents and such. But I appreciate you sharing and inspiring me with this setup. I do have two rooms in our class studio that are similar to yours that are now going to be used for podcast production. Thank you!
Great video. Just one question: If I don't have the budget to buy a live switcher that does the recording too, would I be able to directly record through a software like OBS? My plan is to have cameras connected to the switcher, switcher connected to 1- External Screen (Live Monitoring) 2- The PC (Which is running OBS and recording). Would that be possible? And what kind of obstecles would I face?
The Atem Mini is like $300 and can record directly to ssd. The Mini Pro gets you the built in preview software for monitoring. So I would just get one of those, but yes, you could also go direct into OBS out of 1 camera. Having 2+ cameras may require a switcher. We finally upgraded to the atem extreme so we could have 2 usb outs - one for the recording and one to plug into a PC if we wanted to livestream. Hope that helps!
I really love that it's all Rode stuff, with the affordable Podmics (own 2 myself) and not some fancy, expensive stuff that only a few mortals can afford. I like that it is the ideas and not the gear that are important, and yes i really love the Rodecaster Pro (1st ed.). Nice video, I am learning a lot here :-)
Well you may be bummed to hear that this video is a bit older and I have an updated one where I purchased some of that more expensive stuff... BUT I'm glad you enjoyed this one and thanks for the comment!
The Rodecaster Pro II can control MIDI software and devices to allow easy switcher actions with cameras, from what I have read. It seems that the II does away with the switcher device for the cameras. Can you comment on this and give some tips? Very informative and very helpful video. Finally, someone who gets to the point.
You had mentioned you were not a fan of the big mic arms, but the Elgato Low profile arms are pretty clean looking, the XLR can hide in the magnetic cable tray, and if you put two on each end of the table, I think it will look good on camera while giving you the table isolation you need.
Just watched your podcast videos 1 & 2 . Well done. Great business idea you brought to life. I wonder if Perth, Australia needs a similar model. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for this video! I am in the early construction stages of my in-home studio. I am a 30-year veteran in radio/television and am currently doing my radio show from home. As soon as I'm done with construction, I plan to start a podcast in there as well. My studio is very small (8x12), but for now it serves my purposes. My house was built in 1955 and there was no insulation in any of the walls, so my spray-foam contractor just completed that task. There will be drywall install this week. As for equipment, I'm using the Shure MV7 mic. I was planning to purchase the Rodecaster mixer, but then Rode released the Rodecaster 2, so I think I'll use that. I like your idea for the 4 interview mics, so I'll take your advice on that. As for cameras, I'm gonna need to shop around for some used gear. Thanks again for your advice!
Really enjoyed the video, creating something similar (hopefully) in Dublin. I just saw another video where they put the sound panels on wheels so they could move them around the space. Id never seen it before. Might be a solution to help your acoustics.
Hey Luke! Thanks for your comment. We added an overhead sound blanket but may Introduce a system like you've mentioned to help further. It's truly not too bad at the moment though.
Could you plug the cameras directly into the rodecaster instead of using the IOS device you mentioned. I am a guy who just wants one camera and will only have 1 guest at a time on my podcast.
I think you would probably need to do the opposite and have the rodecaster go into the camera! Take the outs and route them into the camera's mic input and that should work. Otherwise just record the audio on the rodecaster and sync it up with the audio from the camera in post. Just be careful that your camera can support long recording length. Some have a 30 minute cap or will overheat on prolonged sessions. The Black Magic Atem Mini is there to offset that.
Great video. I am opening my first video/podcast studio here in Ohio. It’s 1500 sq ft and I’ve been trying to figure out what to do with the space. This video helps a lot.
What would be your ideal setup now in 2023? would you still use the rodecaster pro 2 and the atem mini pro iso or any other gadgets that caught your eye
Biggest downside for me currently is the single output limitation on the Atem mini pro iso. I may be getting an atem extreme just for that. Since this video I've added boom arms, SM7B's and some other cosmetic stuff. May need to do a 2023 Tour!
This looks really good and the Rode mics are actually visually better for the setup. So you're having this space rented out to people who have their own podcast shows?
I would like to see recommendations for a lightweight, fast setup but professional looking mobile version of podcast lighting equipment that is usable in various locations, without needing to rent from a near shop each time
We don't have a mobile setup really yet, but I know DSLR Video shooter did a 'podcast in a box' style setup that could be cool. This is something we may be looking into this year!
@@TheStudioBusiness in a box without lighting is easy to make and not practical to use in different environments like both for sofa and table. The other difficulty is having a wide shot without direct lights while also having hair light in a light weight package. But stands and good lighting equipment for professional look is very difficult to do lightweight.
Great work mate! When you put those sound blankets up; Make sure you get longer lengths than you need so they have deep S folds; this will increase their performance ;)
Thanks for the tip! The guy I hired to install the one I have in there now (not shown) was a bit of a jabroni, so it's more like a sound blanket hammock now.
I need to step up my video podcasting set up. I use Zoom and a Line Mic. I plan on having a setup similar to this in 2023. Thanks for the inspiration and info bro ‼️‼️‼️💯🎙️🎥🎬
Do you have any idea how long I have been looking for a simple clear cut video on setting up a video podcast. Thank you for basically being the only person that did.
I probably won't do a whole video on it, but it's from home depot. 2ft panels. Then I just built a simple rectangle frame with 2x4's and some thin plywood. simple led strip behind it, and that's it. It's not bolted to the wall or anything so it can be removed.
Great job on the studio set, equipment chosen and info. keep up the great work!.. remember EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE my friend. Looking forward to viewing more. BtW just subbed, liked and bell notifications on! : )
Thank you, J! I appreciate the nice comment and sub! There's a part two to this video/series on my profile. If you had anything else you'd like to see, just let me know!
Was watching out of curiosity for the sound set up but noticed in the lighting section your rigging was unsafe. Your gobo head needs to be put on correctly (the circle side actually is the part you slide the gobo arm through, you dont put it on the baby pin in this scenario), and you also want to make sure both your bigger knuckles on the right side. Right now especially since you have a fixture overhead you want to make sure your knucles are on the tightening side (right side) so that in case it loosens they dont fall on your talent. Besides that great set up
Love the setup, looks really professional. I Dont use the rodecaster, I use an Audient interface and a Warm Audio WA12 Mic Pre which gives me the sound I like.
love your set up. just doing the same for our studio for our podcast. currently using the stream deck as a switcher but thinking of switching to the Atem Mini Pro ISO because i am in the podcast and sometimes when conversations are flowing i forget to switch the angle. sooooo yeah the ISO would definitely help me fix the mistakes LOL. anyways great video again. thanks
You are welcome! I did an updated version of this video on the channel if you want to see a more up-to-date walk through. Atem is still key part but we upgraded a bit. Glad it helped. Thanks for the comment!
I hear too much noise coming out of the 1/4" Monitor in the Procaster (the new RPC II has much clear sounds I'm told) So I run things into a MixPre 6 II and then out into my FX3.
Hey sorry for the late reply, but I don't have much experience with outdoor podcasts. Like all of them, I'd say just keep it interesting and moving. Are you referring to like run and gun mic to people interviews or more sit-down traditionally style but in an outdoor setting?
@@TheStudioBusiness no worries. Thank you for getting back to me. Sit down interview style. Just outdoors 🤔 was thinking just a recorder (potentially the new vocaster by focusrite and 2 SHURE SM58’s
Outstanding video, I'm about 80% ready to go with my set-up and just about all my gear selection mimics yours. One question...have you had any signal issues running HDMI cables from the cams into the ATEM due to cable length ? Asking because my set-up has a "control room" (area) that is 15-20 feet away from the live action so that is a bit of concern though I suppose I could use HDMI active extenders ?. BTW, also dig that you are using Neewer products...these have been great finds for a lot of my shoots, especially where I am not having to travel the gear and things are static in the studio.
We run 10ft HDMIS now and they are fine, but I've heard that going over 20-25ft can cause some problems. I'd do some research on it, maybe tech has improved, but I recall when I was doing that homework, that was the verdict. Glad you enjoyed the video! We posted an updated one a few months back with some new stuff in there.
Definitely a nice space! I would still recommend getting boom arms instead. The blue compass boom arms and rode psa booms are pretty clean looking and will help with the desk noise. Great work!
I’m thinking that for V2 I’ll be doing a new desk and mic arm setup. This really just doesn’t have the room for the boom arms. I have a blue compass as my home and love it. Thanks for the comment!
Cameras feed into the atem, we select which camera input will get played as it records. So all of the cutting between the cameras (and thus people talking) gets done LIVE, so the video file it spits out is 'precut'.
I uploaded a part 2! You guys can find that here: ruclips.net/video/vGzUPobCZYs/видео.html
What actually records the video? Is it Rode software?
Love your videos! Can you do a review of your table from your first video? Most people would like to know more about your table.
The mics have nothing to do with having the ear, a usb mic sends the same signal as an xlr mic digitally it just depends how well they are made and comes down to the internals of the mic, because its youtube and not a radio station you can sound extremely professional with the right software. I can make a $45 mic sound like my $1000 Neumann mic with obs because the technology behind audio is basic it just has to be 16 bits at 44.1khz to sound nice to the ear. Your set up is very expensive for a podcast and looks great.

Hey great tips man I really appreciate you and your help! Keep up the good work 👍🏼
I would like to see recommendations for a lightweight, fast setup but professional looking mobile version of podcast lighting equipment that is usable in various locations, without needing to rent from a near shop each time
We don't have a mobile setup really yet, but I know DSLR Video shooter did a 'podcast in a box' style setup that could be cool. This is something we may be looking into this year!
@@TheStudioBusiness
in a box without lighting is easy to make and not practical to use in different environments like both for sofa and table. The other difficulty is having a wide shot without direct lights while also having hair light in a light weight package. But stands and good lighting equipment for professional look is very difficult to do lightweight.
Great work mate! When you put those sound blankets up; Make sure you get longer lengths than you need so they have deep S folds; this will increase their performance ;)
Thanks for the tip! The guy I hired to install the one I have in there now (not shown) was a bit of a jabroni, so it's more like a sound blanket hammock now.
By far brother this is the best informative video I’ve seen for people that wants to start podcasting thank you so much
LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED
very helpful
Very nice setup! I’m just starting out and I can see a studio like this in my future of podcasting! 👍🏾
Wow Extremely transparent info. Respect!
Great video man!! Quick question, what are you using for curtains?
I believe they are linked in the descriptions. Just some cheap ones from Amazon, nothing special.
Thank you. Inspirational & informational.
I need to step up my video podcasting set up. I use Zoom and a Line Mic. I plan on having a setup similar to this in 2023. Thanks for the inspiration and info bro ‼️‼️‼️💯🎙️🎥🎬
very helpful and clean explanation, thank you boss
Do you have any idea how long I have been looking for a simple clear cut video on setting up a video podcast. Thank you for basically being the only person that did.
Maaan, me and my team are looking to build something pretty similar atm, so great insight here!
Thank you for the video. Where did the table come from. I use folding tables now, but I like the look of the one you have. Thank you.
Can you make a video on the wall panel…I absolutely love it
I probably won't do a whole video on it, but it's from home depot. 2ft panels. Then I just built a simple rectangle frame with 2x4's and some thin plywood. simple led strip behind it, and that's it. It's not bolted to the wall or anything so it can be removed.
Can you explain how to setup the screen with the video monitoring and audio monitoring
It's built into the black magic atem hardware. No software.
What's the recording software you use. On your monitor where you look when you switch screens
No software, that's just the built in look for the Atem Mini pro when plugged into a monitor.
Please tell me how I can buy the metal looking item hanging in the background? Thanks.
Dam sweet video smooth like a pro. Not to mention the setup is amazing
Appreciate it!
Do you need a computer to run this setup? Or between the rhode, atem, and monitor you don't need a computer?
Don't need one. We just have it there in case we want it and we use it to name the files before recording - that's it!
Dude, this is gold. Thank you for sharing.
Great job on the studio set, equipment chosen and info. keep up the great work!.. remember EVERYTHING is POSSIBLE my friend. Looking forward to viewing more.
BtW just subbed, liked and bell notifications on! : )
Thank you, J! I appreciate the nice comment and sub! There's a part two to this video/series on my profile. If you had anything else you'd like to see, just let me know!
Was watching out of curiosity for the sound set up but noticed in the lighting section your rigging was unsafe. Your gobo head needs to be put on correctly (the circle side actually is the part you slide the gobo arm through, you dont put it on the baby pin in this scenario), and you also want to make sure both your bigger knuckles on the right side. Right now especially since you have a fixture overhead you want to make sure your knucles are on the tightening side (right side) so that in case it loosens they dont fall on your talent. Besides that great set up
Thank you for the comment, we have yet to have it fall on anyone 😅
Absolutely amazing!! Thanks for sharing. Have a wonderful day. 🔥
Thank you!!
Amazing ---- Goals!
This is what I've been looking for, very nice
Love the setup, looks really professional. I Dont use the rodecaster, I use an Audient interface and a Warm Audio WA12 Mic Pre which gives me the sound I like.
I’m wondering if you can use three phones to connect to the rodecaster or something similar
Where did you buy panels and how’d you hang without gluing?
can you do a video conecting all the cable from the rode caster, atem mini pro to pc windows with the link all cable in amazon?
I’d love to know a breakdown of price, and potential profit ect
It's a bit complicated, but I've had a few more months of data to go off of now, so when I do the next video, I'll try and include this a bit more.
Great stuff and thanks for sharing. Continued success!
love your set up. just doing the same for our studio for our podcast. currently using the stream deck as a switcher but thinking of switching to the Atem Mini Pro ISO because i am in the podcast and sometimes when conversations are flowing i forget to switch the angle. sooooo yeah the ISO would definitely help me fix the mistakes LOL. anyways great video again. thanks
You are welcome! I did an updated version of this video on the channel if you want to see a more up-to-date walk through. Atem is still key part but we upgraded a bit. Glad it helped. Thanks for the comment!
Great overview and helpful, I’m using slightly different gear (Aerocaster) but will be doing a similar podcast this year
May God always bless you. Thanks for the great and honest video.
I hear too much noise coming out of the 1/4" Monitor in the Procaster (the new RPC II has much clear sounds I'm told) So I run things into a MixPre 6 II and then out into my FX3.
because of your review we bought this for our podcast setup! THANK YOU. (we talked about your video in our latest episode.)
Glad I could help! I'll check it out!
This video was super valuable and genuine thanks! I had one question: any advice on how to succeed with a podcast outdoors? Interview style.
Hey sorry for the late reply, but I don't have much experience with outdoor podcasts. Like all of them, I'd say just keep it interesting and moving. Are you referring to like run and gun mic to people interviews or more sit-down traditionally style but in an outdoor setting?
@@TheStudioBusiness no worries. Thank you for getting back to me. Sit down interview style. Just outdoors 🤔 was thinking just a recorder (potentially the new vocaster by focusrite and 2 SHURE SM58’s
Thanks brother. This is very informative. I’m definitely at ground zero with my podcast. This has been very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Yeah what I am wondering is how did you make that cool looking blue background? A translucent blue sheet with a light on it?
It's just a grey curtain with a light on it, yes.
@@TheStudioBusiness great, thank you for responding!
Great setup but where did you buy the table?
thanks man
Great insight and video. Thank you
Love this video! Can you do a review of the desk? I think most would like to know more about it. Thank you!
Wife and I trying to start a podcast, this video helped a lot, thanks
Great video thanks. Do you think I could use iPhones as cameras ? Or is it better for me to buy SLR type cameras
It would be _better_ to have nicer cameras, but im sure you could use iphones and get good results. Just use some lighting!
Looks great! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
How can I connect prokast p8 with yololiv?
Outstanding video, I'm about 80% ready to go with my set-up and just about all my gear selection mimics yours. One question...have you had any signal issues running HDMI cables from the cams into the ATEM due to cable length ? Asking because my set-up has a "control room" (area) that is 15-20 feet away from the live action so that is a bit of concern though I suppose I could use HDMI active extenders ?. BTW, also dig that you are using Neewer products...these have been great finds for a lot of my shoots, especially where I am not having to travel the gear and things are static in the studio.
We run 10ft HDMIS now and they are fine, but I've heard that going over 20-25ft can cause some problems. I'd do some research on it, maybe tech has improved, but I recall when I was doing that homework, that was the verdict. Glad you enjoyed the video! We posted an updated one a few months back with some new stuff in there.
Definitely a nice space! I would still recommend getting boom arms instead. The blue compass boom arms and rode psa booms are pretty clean looking and will help with the desk noise.
Great work!
I’m thinking that for V2 I’ll be doing a new desk and mic arm setup. This really just doesn’t have the room for the boom arms. I have a blue compass as my home and love it. Thanks for the comment!
Can you explain the live cut procedure in more detail?
Cameras feed into the atem, we select which camera input will get played as it records. So all of the cutting between the cameras (and thus people talking) gets done LIVE, so the video file it spits out is 'precut'.
