I had the pleasure of working with Tom and Chicago Podcast Studio to build my studio in Atlanta, and it's been nothing short of amazing. From the initial design based on my space's layout to the selection of furniture and equipment, the process was seamless. In less than six months, we've hosted over 100 sessions without a single complaint, a testament to their expertise and attention to detail.

As someone who never even owned a camera, Tom's guidance was invaluable. He educated me on camera basics like aperture, ISO, and shutter speed, elevating my skills to a level that impresses other production teams. Our studio is now thriving, grossing up to $3k weekly.

Looking forward to expanding in 2024 with at least three sets, and we're excited to collaborate with Tom and Chicago Podcast Studio again. Their dedication and expertise are worth every penny, and we're even considering their premium package for the next project. Huge thanks to Tom and CPS for their exceptional service!

Thank you for this! Our studio in Bangkok was inspired by your original videos! Looking forward to more content like this and inevitably sharing our setup.

I remember watching the original video, Glad the algo brought me back!!

Thank you for sharing the ins and outs of a video podcast production. This is the most thorough and concise explanation on YouTube 🙏

[TheMrPope]

I’ve loved what you have done over the past few years. Super helpful and looking forward to seeing where this goes for you and your team. Props!

[mrkeys]

The amount of vital information you shared in this video is insane!! Thank you so much. For the life of me I couldn’t figure out how to get over recording pass 30 minutes without my camera either overheating or dying 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

[NICOSAY]

I'm so fired up to try to build mine here in France based on your amazing work ! Thanks for sharing this much value man

[JihadPowell]

[eduokito]

This is an awesome content! Thanks for sharing it with us, I'm creating my podcast/interview studio in Peru and this is very helpful. Very thanks!

[MichaelNatrin]

It blows my mind when video guys don't multitrack their audio

[TheTravelingTrader]

Great video. Do you use any LUTS for the video footage?

[dustinbailey]

I also set-up my 4 person studio conf table style almost identical to the first studio tour video you posted some time ago. Now I’m adding another set and will likely replicate much of the same with the furniture. Awesome to see you doing so well from when you started and your info was super helpful- thanks for sharing. I went with LUMIX S5iix instead of the fx30’s and the full frame in a tighter spaces has allowed us to have a much smaller footprint with roughly the same cost as the Sony’s. Looking forward to more videos in the (hopefully near this time) future!

Great video- We set up our studio by watching your previous videos. Thank you so much!

[OgDj]

Great studio!
I’m just starting my podcast, and this is inspiring

RESPECT! ✊🏾

[MrDavidwhatley]

Thanks so much for this, and you're my inspiration for building my own podcast studio.
I'm planning on 2 sets and have a Mega Desk also 😂 one set is a rolling table for up to 4 participants and the other set will be more intimate for 2. Size wise its 26x15' and plan to rotate the Mega desk 180⁰ depending on the set being used. 3 FF Canon cameras, and using the Rodecaster Pro 2 in tandem with the Atem mini pro ISO.
Hopefully it will be enough to start.
For editing, do you think I can upload to Riverside and use their AI editing tools to get a decent result?

Great followup video. We built our podcast recording studio based on the first video you released, which was super helpful. Thank you. The one area we are still trying to iron out is the quality of audio from the Rodecaster to the ATEM mini. We have the same cable you referred to and the mic input on the ATEM set to line. This takes care of the noise issue. However the audio recorded internally on the rodecaster seems to be higher quality then the audio we are getting when it is sent to the ATEM. I'm wondering if you ever any issues going from a balanced output (rodecaster) to an unbalanced input (ATEM). Also, how do you deal with audio delay/drift? Looking forward to the next video!

I have all u have and more but need some space where I can lease it out.. great motivation video

[jamesumoh]

Hey bruh…you included links for all your equipment except the (video) monitor arms. I’m in desperate need and yours look perfect in every way. Please let me know where 🙏🏾 thanks!

[JaimeSanchez-ujri]

In terms of quality will the A7III be superb to a crop sensor camara like ZVE10?

[rickyemmerson]

Curious with this setup, I’m assuming you’re only getting 1080p out of the switcher?
