Setting up a dedicated audio recording hardware setup is an expensive affair for podcasters who are just starting out. Hence, there is a need to use software and overcome the drawbacks of hardware.
I will be working on Icho, a tool which will help podcasters refine their recordings and bring it at par with levels achieved in studio recordings. The tool will let anyone with a phone record and produce quality podcasts without any dedicated hardware.
One of the primary reasons to post my progress publicly is that it makes me accountable and helps keep track of my work.
