Recording Software

My partner and I plan are considering to use one of our iPhones to record our podcast. We have been researching about applications that will allow us to do so and have come across one called Speaker Radio and Podcast Recorder. We came to know about this app by simply researching podcast recording applications on Google, then reading a little bit about it. We do have a few other options if anything goes wrong while using this application for recording. I have heard that the program Audacity is great for recording, so we are considering using this program instead. Once we learn more about it in lecture, we will be able to decide whether or not this will be a better and easier recording software. Audacity does seem like the better tool to use since it will then allow us to edit our podcast after recording, all using the same program. We have looked into editing our podcast and came to realize that Speaker Radio does not have an editing feature. If we do decide to record with Speaker Radio, we have research iRig to be an easy and reliable podcast editing application, also available for download on an iPhone.

Features of Speaker Radio:
-mix and broadcast your voice with sound effects
-share audio updates on social media
-manage and modify your podcast

Tips for using Speaker Radio:
-must have iOS version 5.0 (or later)
-this app will unfortunately only save with uploading to iTunes, so this should be installed prior to recording
-Speaker Radio does not allow for editing, so look into apps that were designed for the purpose of editing podcast recording, to get the most editing features out of it
-for additional information, log on to official website, www.speaker.com

We have tested out Speaker Radio and have yet to understand how to pause during recording. This may be a problem if the app does not allow us to do this. This may make the recording process very difficult as pausing will certainly be necessary.
