Podcasting Equipment?

OK, aside from the rant about the endless stream of podcasts- I do have some thoughts about possibly doing  maybe a show or two myself or pitching shows to sites I write for.  And I’ve also recently mentioned a few upgrades to the office studio.

But I’m on a shoestring budget- but I want a quality sound. I also want to uitlize Skype or some sort of phone recording technology to have guests on.

So-here’s my current setup:

1 Windows XP desktop - which currently handles most of the production/ recording functions. I’m using Spacial Audio’s SAM 3 webcaster studio to record and mix live to file. I’m also using a mic / headphone combo from Logitec.

2 Windows XP Laptop- which I’d like to use to be the recording machine. Possibly.

3 iMac- I’ve been playing with Garage Band for mixing, but it seems to only work well with files you create / record in GB. I’ve found Importing doesn’t work so well.

So, once you’re done laughing at my gear- Gimme some advice. I think I’m just a quality mic away from where I want to be, but I could be wrong….
