Recording Room
Recording Room Features
The recording room is a 9' x 11' room in the basement that has been built with heavy insulation and thick drywall to ensure that sound stays in the room.
The room includes a Rode mixer and four-microphone recording system with studio quality headsets. There is a dual-monitor sit/stand one-touch adjustable table and a Dell computer to mix and edit, and upload and publish podcasts and videocasts.
The following equipment is available for use in the room at all times:
- Four PorLine Microphones with boom stand and pop filter
- Four Tascam TH-300X Studio Headphones
- Rode Podcaster Pro Mixer with four audio ports and Bluetooth compatible for connecting to phone audio (adding incredible ease when adding your sound effects to your podcast)
- Dell desktop computer for editing, saving and uploading/publishing audio/video files
Upon request, LawShare provides (at no additional charge) use of a Sony Alpha Camera for streaming video, which allows for up to 30 hours of continuous recording.
Rode editing software allows sound to be recorded on 14 separate tracks for complex editing, but can also be a single recording for non-professional users.
LawShare provides in-person basic equipment and software training up to two hours at no charge to acclimate a new user. LawShare makes available video links for additional self-training on the equipment.
LawShare is not a production company and has no professionally trained audio/visual staff on-site. For professional support, development and publication of a podcast, members must contract with a consultant. LawShare does not provide direct A-V or technical support for recording after the initial equipment training.
