When I podcasted Grizelda in the fall of 2008, I got some complaints about the book’s sound quality.  This isn’t too surprising, since I was recording it with a $25 USB microphone in my dorm room.  I rubber-banded a Kleenex over the mike head to cut down on room noises.

Anyway, determined to make The Confederacy of Heaven into a better, stronger podcast than Grizelda, I’ve been looking into better sound recording options.  Turns out that Carleton’s Cinema and Media Studies department has a sound booth that’s open for student use.  For free.  All you have to do is sign up for an appointment, so I did, for tomorrow afternoon.

I get to talk into a real microphone tomorrow!  I’m going to feel like a DJ.
