Podcasts - Personal Radio For The Masses
By D. L. Randolph, Sat Dec 10th
Podcasts are literally ways the ordinary average person can havetheir own broadcast media. What makes Podcasts different fromother types of audio content is the users must use RSS protocol.However, it also allows you to produce and create your ownself-published radio-type shows. Several radio stations use Podcasts either as their entireformat or as part of their format. These stations include KYOURadio in San Francisco, 99.5 The Mountain in Denver, and KFI inLos Angeles. Of course, the Internet provides listings for wherePodcasts can be found as well. At www.Podcasts.net, you'll finda list that is based on any topic you're interested in. Thisincludes entertainment, politics, arts, science and nature,business, lifestyle and shopping, with many of the categoriesbroken down into more specific categories. If you don't have an iPod, you may wonder why you would evenwant to find Podcasts. The term Podcasts doesn't mean a personhas to use an Apple iPod. Podcast, though, is a term merged fromthe words iPod and broadcast. Any digital audio player orcomputer with the proper software can be used to listen to orcreate Podcasts. But, users must have "Podcatching" software,also known as "aggregator" software, to be able to listen toPodcasts.
Those wanting to either listen to or make their own Podcastswill need something called iPodderx. This is nothing more than anewsreader that can interpret RSS 2.0 feeds. While the iPodderxallows for listening to Podcasts, it is also needed to help withthe broadcast side as well. Other Podcasting products available,as shown on www.alesis.com, include the 10/2 2-channel portableaudio interface. This is a 24-bit /96k USB product. The PhotonX49 is a keyboard controller, as is the Fusion 6HD and 8HD. TheMultiMix Mixers are used to mix sounds for the Podcasts. M1Active 520 and 620 nearfield reference monitors are alsoavailable. However, be ready to spend some serious cash ifyou're planning on doing any major Podcasts. Podcasts can be broadcasted world wide, adding an even broaderbase to the places you can find Podcasts. A couple of the globalPodcast sites, according to www.wickmedia.com, are CBC Radio Oneout of Canada, Triple J Podcast from Australia. Podcast sites inthe US can be found at www.podarama.com-dj.
