Oh my, do I have a lovely microphone to show you today!
The sE Neom microphone presents an intriguing option for podcasters seeking USB-only solutions.
With its distinct design, on-brand red meshing, gunmetal colouring and unique features, the sE Neom aims to carve out a niche in a crowded USB microphone market.
I have been testing this microphone now for about 6 months in a variety of locations and use cases. As a podcaster myself and a producer of over 50 podcasts, Iâm always looking for microphones to recommend to my community.
So I decided to put this one to the test.
Thanks to Chris from Sound-Music for sending me this microphone! Theyâre a great bunch of humans based out of Melbourne who distribute the best gear to audio/production stores around Australia.

I used to be quasi-famous.
It was a long time ago and not a place I particularly want to revisit, but as I reflected on how I built Bamby Media into the successful business it is today, there has been one key ingredient.
An unfair advantage.
This podcast episode is my origin story. I hope you enjoy it.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to listen to 200 AI-generated podcasts?
âNo. Thatâs ridiculous. Why would anyone do that?â I hear you say.
Iâm flaky on the âwhyâ myself, but the thing is, I did it and those are hours of my life I will never get back.
I listened to 200 fake podcasts generated with NotebookLM to see for myself whether the podcasting industry is about to come crumbling down.
Although I went slightly insane throughout this experience, I feel it was well worth it. I definitely never want to hear the phrase âdeep diveâ again, but other than that Iâve ventured out of this mess mostly unscathed.

Youâre about to start a podcast and youâve decided you want to edit it yourself.
At first, this seems like it should be fairly straightforward.
Get the audio/video, make a few adjustments, cut a bit of the nonsense out and you should have something thatâs good enough to release.
But then you start researching online what software you should use to edit your show and everybody and their dog has an opinion on what software to choose.
And for some reason, the editors of the world are quite adamant that their tool is the best one to use. There can be no other winners.
Unfortunately, a lot of the information you find online may lead you down the path of complex editing tools that make you want to throw your computer out a window.
And as a long-time editor myself with almost two decades of experience working with audio and video, I can sometimes be a bit of a snob too.
I do have clear favourites and if Iâm amongst other seasoned editors, no doubt we would have a healthy debate about why what we use is supreme.
But thatâs not the purpose of today dear reader.
Today, I want to help distil the endless possibilities that youâre presented with as a DIY podcast editor, into a comparison of two tools that there has been quite a lot of discussion about online. Descript vs. Riverside.fm.
Youâve probably heard of Riverside.fm with its super convenient virtual meeting capabilities. Itâs been a trusty sidekick for recording interviews remotely. It wasn't long ago that Riverside started offering editing capabilities too. Smart, right? If you're already using Riverside, you might think, "Hey, why not just edit here too?"
But is it as good as it sounds?
On the flip side, there's Descript â an editing tool that, truth be told, had a rough start years ago as it was a pretty bad user experience. But time has been kind to Descript, and now itâs a pretty solid choice in the podcasting world.
So, letâs see how these two stack up against each other based on a few key factors: ease of editing, customisation, speed, AI tools, and learning curve.

There seems to be quite a lot of buzz about Googleâs new AI tool, NotebookLM and how it can potentially impact the world of podcasting.
As a podcast producer and founder of podcast production agency, Bamby Media, Iâm always testing new tools to see how they can benefit (or hinder) the industry I love so much.
Armed with a healthy dose of hope and scepticism, I decided to give Google NotebookLM a whirl to see whether the podcasting world should be worried.

Why does recording audio have to be so difficult?
If youâre trying to record audio of a very high standard, youâre often met with a barrage of choices you have to make.
What microphone do I need?
Is my location too noisy?
What am I going to plug my microphone into?
How do I record multiple people at once?
What software am I going to use to record it?
In the consultations I have with content creators, this line of questioning is one of the first topics we cover and I often see their eyes glaze over when I start listing all the options.
I can confirm, there are too many options.
But my advice is to focus on one thing at a time, and today Iâm focusing on the software that you use to record.
For the audio-only folks out there, there is very simple piece of software that will make your life easy. At least this portion of your life. I canât guarantee the rest of your life will fall into place based on this decision. Sorry.
Today Iâm excited to share a game-changer in the world of audio recording - Shure Motiv Mix, which at time of writing is currently in its Beta phase and itâs completely free to use.

Itâs happening. Youâre finally launching a podcast.
Youâve been thinking about it, planning it, buying the gear, deciding not to do it, then deciding you want to do it, then getting scared, putting the gear back in the cupboard, then getting it back out, then realising you really just need to do it.
You know, all the normal emotions that fresh podcasters go through.
You get over the initial hurdle of committing to the process, but then you start thinking what that first episode needs to be like.
It needs to be amazing.
The kind of episode that someone will listen to and think, âThis is possibly the greatest podcast in the history of the world. Iâm hooked and I will now be a raving fan forever. I will give them my first born child as gratitude for how good this podcast episode is.â
Sure, thatâs one way to attack your first episode, but maybe itâs not the smartestâŠ
In this episode, I step through how I believe you should approach your first podcast episode.

Recording on location used to be such a huge pain in my ass.
Iâd have this big carry case with my trust Zoom H5, Rode lapel microphones and clips, wind socks, XLR adapters for the lapels so that theyâd connect to the Zoom and then a huge amount of leads to make sure all my bases were covered.
And then a few brands started bringing out wireless microphone options that could connect to your phone.
Some of them were okay, but most of them werenât good enough for me to switch from my bulky setup. I was capturing much better sound doing it my way.
As the technology improved, so too did the wireless microphone options that were brought to the market.
Again, I was still dubious, but I decided to bite the bullet and put the Rode Wireless Pro to the test. Iâd looked at some reviews on YouTube, reviewed the sound quality and inclusions and decided it may be a viable option for myself and our clients.
For the tests that I conducted, I was focusing on how the Rode Wireless Pro system handled a diverse array of recording environments. I tested in a quiet hotel room, at the beach, on a train, in the park and using the included lapel (wired) setup vs the completely wireless option.
Iâve been using the system now for almost three months, and Iâm ready to give you my recommendations.

After recently watching Happy Gilmore for probably the twentieth time, it got me thinking about how we present ourselves as creators.
I found myself reflecting quite existentially on the impact that Adam Sandlerâs character had on my view of where the world of content creation currently sits.
And I honestly think itâs all a little boring.
Overwhelmingly people are presenting as the âprofessionalâ version of themselves, especially on LinkedIn. This makes sense as we predominantly put out content to draw the viewer/listener into ultimately buying something from us.
We present as the authority.
We present as a leader.
But are we showing enough of ourselves to keep our content interesting?
In this episode, I go through a few key lessons I learned from Happy Gilmore about content creation.

Currently, the global creator economy is valued at around $155 billion.
By 2030 itâs expected to surpass $525 billion.
Thatâs a lot of wig wams.
And I know it might seem like every person and their pet is a âcreatorâ these days, but it shouldnât stop you from exploring this option for yourself too.
Being a content creator can mean many different things and encompass a variety of industries. Itâs not all about selling the latest products, jumping on the newest trends and vlogging about your latest dental checkup.
There is nuance to this industry. Itâs fun, creative, explorative, educational and thinking of yourself as a creator will open you up to delivering more valuable content for your audience.
No doubt youâll also make more money as a result.
But the first step needs to be answering the all-important âwhyâ.
Iâve got some practical tips to help you answer that question in this podcast episode.

Here at Bamby Media, weâve been producing podcasts for clients for almost a decade and Iâd say at this point weâve worked with almost every podcast hosting platform out there.
From Omnystudio to Simplecast, Podbean, Libsyn, Blubrry, Acast to name a few.
But do we really need that many podcast hosts?
Donât they all largely do the same thing?
The short answer is yes, they do all largely have the same basic functions.
But I do feel that not all podcast hosting platforms are created equally.
There are definite advantages to some hosts over others, and after years of experience in this space, there are two hosts that Iâve found to be the standouts in the field.
Buzzsprout and Captivate.
Iâm going to give you the breakdown as to why Iâve chosen these two, and who ultimately wins in a battle between the two.

One of my favourite things to do here at Bamby Media is run consultations for aspiring podcasters.
We jump into a virtual meeting together and I get giddy with excitement while they explain their idea for a show.
Then we get down to business and I start asking the harder questions.
Why do they want to start a podcast?
Who is it for?
How will their podcast be any different to others in their field?
Where are they going to record their podcast?
Who is going to do the editing?
The point of me asking these questions is not to overwhelm them, itâs to make sure theyâve thought it all through. Because there are plenty of people who start a podcast on a whim, get 7 or so episodes in and then realise they canât keep up.
From the hundreds of podcasts weâve worked with, Iâve seen the value of a long-standing podcast and I know that a proper plan goes a long way.
Our role here at Bamby Media is to help podcasters launch and produce their shows and grow their influence. It takes time, strategy and a significant investment to create the type of podcast that will create engaged listeners.
Today, Iâm running through the full step-by-step of how I recommend you start a podcast in 2024 and beyond.

When youâre listening to a podcast episode, do you notice the technical aspects of the edit?
If you said yes, Iâm going to bet youâre either a very avid podcast listener, or youâre an editor yourself.
The truth of it is that most listeners donât notice the editing on a podcast (unless itâs particularly bad).
The listener doesnât hear the original raw audio. They havenât seen the hours it has taken to craft a conversation into a compelling story, or the subtle use of silence to heighten emotions at key points.
What they hear is a polished episode that (hopefully) is a pleasure to listen to.
And the podcast editor has therefore done their job.
Our role is to make the edit so seamless that the listener accepts that it was recorded that way to begin with.
But the editor knows better.
The editor has shaped the story, got to know the host and/or the guest on a granular level down to every vocal tic and theyâre invested.
I recently spoke to Matthew Bliss at MB Podcast Services about the role of the podcast editor and Iâd be thrilled if you checked it out.

Have you ever bought something online, thinking you scored a fantastic deal, only to realise later that it might not have been what it seemed?
Well, that's exactly what happened to me with the Shure SM7B microphone.
Today, I'm sharing my story of how I ended up with two fake SM7B microphones and the results of an audio battle I conducted between the real deal and its dupe.
Find out if the dupe is worth the savings or if you should stick with the original.

Have you ever been in a situation where an exciting opportunity lands in your lap, but something deep down makes you hesitate?
I want to share a personal story that I think many content creators can relate toâdeciding when to say no to a brand deal. Receiving offers from brands can feel like a huge opportunity, but sometimes, itâs in your best interest to pass on them as they might not serve the long-term goals you have.
Recently, I've started to receive opportunities from different software tools aimed at podcasters and microphone brands looking to partner with me. One brand in particular that I wonât name, reached out and offered to send me some of their latest products for me to review on our YouTube and podcast channels. On the surface, this offer seemed like a great idea and I agreed. I hadnât heard of them before, but I was eager to give their gear a try.
Over the next couple of days, I started to dig deeper into this brand. I realised I hadn't heard of them for good reason. I have decades of experience in the audio space, and the fact that this brand never crossed my radar was a red flag.
It's tempting to say yes to every offer that comes your way, especially when you're excited about the possibility of a new partnership. However, it's crucial to ask yourself whether this opportunity aligns with your brandâs values and how it may affect your brandâs reputation.
Next time you have an exciting offer, take a step back and consider its actual value. Are you saying yes because youâre genuinely enthusiastic about the opportunity, or are you just excited that someone reached out?

If youâve ever spent time on YouTube, youâve probably come across âfacelessâ channels.
Some even employ AI voices, allowing them to focus purely on content creation without involving their personal identities. This style of creation is becoming increasingly popular for video because it involves far less work. You donât need a video camera, lighting or recording space. I can see the appeal to some creators.
It made me wonder: could podcasts follow a similar trend and become entirely voiceless? Letâs be clear here as to what âvoicelessâ means in this context. There is still technically a voice, but itâs not your human voice.
With the increasing popularity of cloning voices using AI, are we on the precipice of stepping into a world where synthetic voices are the norm?
Imagine using AI to replace your voice altogether. No more recording sessions, just write a script, or you could go even further and have AI write your script for you. Then let an AI-generated voice say it all and bam, youâve got yourself a âpodcastâ.
To some, this might seem like a utopian shortcutâminimal effort for maximum output. To me, it initially felt very wrong and entirely impersonal. But, in the spirit of experimentation, I decided to give it a go and share my findings with you.

We have one hell of a showdown between two industry-leading microphones from Shure for you today. On one side, is the legendary Shure SM7B. On the other, its modern sibling, the Shure MV7. Whether you're a seasoned podcaster or just starting, choosing the right microphone can hugely impact your recordings. My objective here is to dive into the pros and cons of each mic, give you some sound tests, and help you decide which microphone fits your needs best.
If you are an early-stage to mid-level podcaster, the Shure MV7 offers outstanding versatility. It allows you to jump into podcasting without a massive upfront investment. Despite its shortcomings in sibilance and plosive handling, it provides good sound quality for its price. Its ability to switch between USB and XLR connectivity means it can evolve as you upgrade your podcasting setup.
For the budget-conscious podcaster, I personally see no reason for you to go out and buy the SM7B which would have you spending almost AU$1000 on a microphone and appropriate pre-amp. It does not feel necessary.
In the end, your choice will depend heavily on your specific needs and setup. Do you prioritise versatility and budget, or are you eager to present yourself like the professional podcasters that youâve seen using the Shure SM7B. I know that can be a very real factor to consider.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on the SM7B vs. MV7. What works best for your voice and setup? Remember, just because one mic is widely used doesn't mean itâs the best fit for you. Itâs always a good option to try a few, or watch reviews of different voices showcasing the microphones before deciding for yourself.

How many downloads are you receiving for each episode you release, and why should you care less about this statistic?
Well, dear reader as you no doubt know by now, download numbers appear to be the be all and end all statistic to track whether your podcast is making an impact.
Yes, I do agree that you should know your download numbers and certainly track them over time, but what if downloads are just the tip of the iceberg?
What if there's a whole treasure trove of insights waiting to be discovered, a deeper understanding of how your podcast is truly resonating with your audience and how far that reach actually goes.
By venturing past this single metric, you can unlock a wealth of knowledge about your listeners, their habits, and their preferences. This knowledge empowers you to refine your content, expand your reach, and ultimately, stay in it for the long haul. The more you track your growth, the more you realise how truly wonderful it is to keep your podcast going.

Alright podcasters and vocalists alike, it's time to settle a score! Today, we're throwing down in a microphone brawl between two titans: the legendary Shure SM7B and the lesser-known but highly regarded sE Dynacaster DCM8.
By the end of this rumble, you'll know which microphone I prefer for females with similar vocal tones to my own, as well as vocalists looking for that extra bit of sparkle.
To set the scene, weâve recorded this battle at Gasworks studio in Fortitude Valley with both mics plugged into a top-notch John Hardy M2 preamp. We're keeping things raw with no post-production on the sound, so you hear exactly how these microphones perform. All weâve done is boosted the levels to ensure theyâre the same.
