Better Podcasting #288 - Even More Rodecaster Pro II Problems / Media Host Segment: Guest Chris Ferrell's Recent Experience

In the Better Podnering this week topics include:

• SP has even more Rodecaster Pro 2 problems
• iOS transcripts are here
• Multi-tracking audio within OBS
• A simplified podcast experience using the Vocaster Two

For this week's media host segment, our guest Chris Ferrell joins us to discuss his recent experience switching from Podbean to Spotify for Podcasters. Why did he switch? What does he like about Spotify? What does he miss about Podbean? We'll discuss it all and more.

Finally, in this week's Better Podback, we have a follow-up to last week's Target challenge, and there's a question about the original Rodecaster Pro voltage.
