Positively 10th Street
The kids are back and made an instant impact on the attitude of the podcast.
Other than the fact that I still can't figure out how to get the sound right even with two microphones, it's a great podcast. We may need to hire Smoke and Mirrors to sound engineer this thing if I can't get it straight soon.
Topics of conversation this week include summer camp, some new music, and color war.
Song List:
Emily's Song - Good Riddance - Green Day
Jessica's Song - Banana Pancakes - Jack Johnson
Josh's Song - eBay - Weird Al Yankovic
Fred's Song - Busting Up A Starbucks - Mike Doughty
Joanne's Song - Kathleen - Josh Ritter

I would be happy to lend any engineering assistance needed! It seems like it should be so easy, right? It's only one mic. Just plug it in and turn it on... then you realize just how many other sounds are floating around you, how much the room echoes, how the levels change, how loud some voices are and how quiet others are, how moving just six inches can change everything. How hard it is to do something so simple.
Just let Jackson know when you need us.

Check and see if the two mics are in/out of phase. If they are, just flip the poloarity on one of them and you should see a marked improvement. As Chris and Jackson will atest, out of phase mics have bogged down many a session while a sound engineer trys to figure out why the hell you can't hear anything.

Hi Fred - I'm local to NYC and done a bit of podcasting (maybe you've heard of Beercasting). I'd be happy to help out if there's anything I can do.
If you'd like, let me know when you're doing your next one and I'll bring my gear over.. it's already portable :)
