We love podcasts, but we don’t always love the way some of them sound: if it’s hard to hear the presenter or a guest it can make even the best podcasts something of a struggle. With Vocaster, you can be sure that your podcast or vlog will sound as good as the pros.
Vocaster has been designed as a one-box solution, which makes it a great choice if you want to podcast but don’t know where to start as well as a great all-in-one solution for more experienced podcasters and vloggers.
Your Vocaster is a studio-quality and incredibly user-friendly interface that includes everything you need to capture and publish your podcast, including a software bundle worth over £500 / $600 that gives you all the tools you need for recording, editing and sharing your show. And if you don’t already have a good microphone, you can buy your Vocaster with a really great one right there in the box.
Studio-quality power for your podcast
Focusrite is famous for its high-quality musical hardware, which you’ll find in venues, broadcasters and recording studios worldwide as well as in thousands of musicians’ home and mobile recording setups. Focusrite is bringing the same high-quality audio expertise to podcasts in two versions, each one designed for a specific kind of podcasting. The Vocaster One is designed for solo podcasters, and Vocaster Two is designed for podcasts with more guests and more audio tracks. It can even record phone calls into your podcast via Bluetooth.
Whichever Vocaster you choose, you can be sure of studio-quality sound and incredible ease of use – and if you want to publish video too, both versions have camera outputs that enable you to record the same high-quality audio directly to your camera. That saves you the hassle of syncing up audio and video later on.
Your very own control room
Simply connect your Vocaster to your computer and the Vocaster Hub takes care of everything. It has podcaster-approved voice presets to deliver the full personality of your voice with incredible clarity, and its Auto Gain feature sets your levels quickly and easily for any kind of mic, including the most popular broadcast mics. And its loopback feature makes it easy to stream pre-recorded audio: intros, outros, interviews, jingles, sound effects, background music and anything else you’d like to include. It also works well with screen readers to make podcasting even more accessible.
It’s all very powerful, but you don’t need to be an expert to get started: Focusrite’s Easy Start makes it incredibly easy to get on air, and there’s award-winning support available 24/7/365 if you ever need a bit more help.
Everything you need in just one box
You can buy your Vocaster by itself, or in a Studio Pack that contains everything you need to turn your computer into a podcast production studio: your Vocaster, of course, plus a high-quality microphone, great monitoring headphones and all the necessary cables to connect everything.
If you go for the Vocaster One Studio Pack you get the Vocaster One interface, HB60v closed-back studio headphones that enable you to hear your show as your listeners will, and the Vocaster DM1 dynamic microphone. That has a built-in grille and pop filter to make you sound like you’re in the studio and to eliminate unwanted noises.
The Vocaster Two Studio Bundle is even more powerful thanks to the Vocaster Two interface and the Vocaster DM14v microphone, which includes a built-in windshield and shock mount to keep the noise down and the energy up. Like the Vocaster One Studio Pack it also includes a pair of Focusrite’s excellent HB60v closed-back monitoring headphones so you can hear every detail of your recording or stream, and it includes the same brilliant Vocaster Hub software for recording, editing and publishing your podcasts.
You can podcast with a clear conscience too, because Focusrite uses carefully chosen components, biodegradable and recyclable packaging and gets more than half of its plastics from recycled sources to make its products better for everyone.
Professional podcast power without the price tag
We’ve left the best news till last: the Vocaster delivers professional quality podcasting, but it doesn’t have a pro-level price tag. You can get the Vocaster One for just £189.99 / $199.99, and the Vocaster One Studio is just £289.99 / $299.99. If you need even more podcasting power the Vocaster Two is £289.99 / $299.99 and the full Vocaster Two Studio is £469.99 / $499.99.
