This Week's Podcaster's Toolkit Pick The Zoom H4n Pro — an audio classic. A handy portable recorder that accepts 4 XLR microphones, with a built-in stereo mic on top for when nothing else is plugged in. Records to a memory card, and doubles as an audio interface. A high-confidence recommendation. Why PodcasterToolkit.co Exists A quick history lesson: the whole reason for starting Mike Murphy Unplugged was to share knowledge of tools, gear, and resources, and help fellow one-man bands and creative entrepreneurs figure things out together. PodcasterToolkit.co was the site that existed in idea-form from the very beginning — a well-organized home for carefully curated tools and resources, built as a one-stop shop for creators to get things done. No fluff, just the good stuff. The Big Picture Plan The blog will be loaded with practical, instructional how-tos about podcasting and related topics — repurposing podcast scripts into blog entries along the way. The shop will feature podcasting and content-creation gear, linked directly to Amazon. The tools section will cover business and productivity software actually used and loved, like FreshBooks, Scrivener, Elegant Themes, and Lynda.com. Tutorials & videos will build out a YouTube library over time. Steps to Launch Read the complete show notes and resources on mikemurphy.ai.
