Dave asks the question, "What are you using to stay organized?" as he had accidentally missplaced his interview with Rich Palmer of www.audiogumshoe.com the show is 19 minutes long (a little long, but an interesting story).

Please note the audio review of the Audio Technica 2020 microphone will be in the future (I really needed to get  Rich's story out to the public).

Thanks to everyone who commmented about the last show. Well I found out the hard way that the T30 DOES NOT allows you to plug in a microphone to the LINE IN. The line is for plugging in a CD player (or any other line device). Dave's answer was to go to www.ebay.com and buy a refurbished iRiver 899 (total cost 95.11 )

If you're not looking to spend the giant bucks on a Marantz 660 ($500), Roland-Edirol has the new R-09 coming out later this month ($400). Allan Stewart from the Marketers Podcast let me know that new models of Minidisc recorders have the ability to download to a PC. I checked into this an sony has a model MZM100 and it does connect via USB (Click the link and buy a new MZ-M100 from us and receive a free pair of Sony MDR-7506 headphones ($99 value) with your order. While supplies last! at samedaymusic.com).

Keep in mind that line in does NOT equal mic in.

Its official (I've been dying to announce for some time now) I will be a speaker at the Portable Media Expo in September. I'm doing a session titled "Planning Your Podcast: Avoiding the Ready FIRE Aim Syndrome." I was going to the expo anyway, but this is such a thrill I LOVE classroom teaching, meeting people, and helping them face to face. If you're coming, and see me be sure to stop me and say hi.
