The latest incarnation of our podcast studio. The tin can computer speakers were not working out and we needed better studio monitors (we don't just do vocal podcasting with this gear). KRK RP5 (Rokit Powered 5) Powered Reference studio monitors were added. And these active speakers kick ass.
Also the mixer's mic preamps were not giving us the right ooomph on the mics, so we added the M-Audio DMP3 Mic Preamp. The Audio-Technica AT2020 is a highly regarded budget condenser mic which we added because the AT897 had to be used to shoot video for another project.
From left: KRK RP5 studio monitors, Audio Technica AT-897 Shotgun condenser microphone, Yamaha MG12/4 Mixer, Audio-Technica AT2020 condenser microphone with Stedman Proscreen 101 pop filter, M-Audio Nova studio condenser microphone with Stedman Proscreen 101 pop filter and Samson stand, Sennheiser HD 280 Pro studio monitor headphones, M-Audio Mobilepre USB (USB Bus-Powered Preamp and Audio Interface), M-Audio DMP3 (Dual Microphone/Instrument Preamp), Apple iMac G5 iSight 17-inch (with 1.5gb of memory), and Shure SM-58 dynamic microphone.
Not in pic, the iPod 40gb Clickwheel with Griffin iTalk and lapel mic, and Behringer Eurorack UB802 Mixer.
You may want to look at the previous versions of the setup: version 4 and version 5.
