In this episode, I review the Marantz PMD620 Professional Portable Digital Recorder. I also give a bit of an update regarding my feelings on the Zoom H2 Recorder. I also compare both the Marantz and the Zoom recorders to the Edirol R-09. Folks may be shocked to learn that if I had to replace my Edirol, there is a good chance that I might do so with the PMD620.

Catholic Mom Podcast writes: Knowing When to Call in a Pro
February 18, 2008
I’m honored to receive the review that I got from Lisa Hendey on her blog, Productivity @ Home. Here’s just an excerpt of what she said…
Enter Cliff Ravenscraft, the Podcast Answer Man. With a couple of quick telephone conferences, Cliff was able to advise me on equipment purchases and help me assemble and use my new equipment. His service was friendly, responsive, and related in terms even a rookie podcasting mom could understand.
Had I taken my normal route of consulting “dummies” books, I’m certain I would still be losing sleep and performing at a sub-optimal level. Once I determined that putting together a quality podcast in a time efficient manner was important, the end goal seemed to justify the expense of bringing a consultant on board. I am incredibly pleased with the return on my investment.
Thanks Lisa, it was a pleasure working with you!

Heil PR-40
In this episode, I’ve decided to show off one of my favorite pieces of equipment in my studio. My Heil PR40 microphone was recommended by Leo Leporte. I’m using this episode to show the MAJOR difference in the audio between cheap microphones as they compare to the Heil PR-40 sound.
Of course, I want you to know that one stream of income that I have going in my career as a podcast and new media consultant is that I am a reseller of audio equipment. The Heil PR-40 microphone is by far my most popular item. I can assure you that if you contact me directly, you’ll not find a lower price on this microphone!
If you are saving up money to improve the quality of your audio sound. Before you buy Compressors, Gates, Equalizers, etc, you should first purchase a professional microphone like the Heil-PR40 and it will increase the quality of your audio well above 95% of all the other podcasts out there.
If you want to purchase this microphone from me, please send me an email at Cliff@gspn.tv for more details.
