Yog Radio logo

Yog Radio (aka YSDC-R Bradford) is a semi-regular Cthulhu Podcast coming out of Yog-Sothoth.com.

Yog Radio deals with all things Call of Cthulhu, Lovecraftian and gaming in general, along with (un)healthy doses of gamer chit chat from the quite insane show hosts.

Shows 1-6 were encoded using the MP3pro standard and so will sound OK in any MP3 player, but feature much better audio quality using MP3pro compatible players. For Windows users, an MP3pro WinAmp plug-in is available. For Macintosh users, Audion may be a suitable choice.


Show Hosts

Equipment

The first episode of Yog Radio was recorded simply enough on an iRiver IFP 790. This is the same iRiver that's been used previously to record the World's Largest Dungeon' podcast from RPGMP3.com and the Masks of Nyarlathotep Game Audio Recording on Yog-Sothoth.com.

The next two episodes were recorded using the same iRiver but connected to single Lavalier (lapel) condenser mic. Using the old tin can for support. Show #2 featured a Skype interview using a PC laptop also recording to the iRiver.Yog Radio #3 was also recorded under a duvet (literally) on advice that it would improve the audio response, which it did, but at some cost to the hosts working conditions.

Show #4 used three Lavalier mics into a very cheap £10 mixer, this proved not to be a wise move and better equipment was sought.

Show #5 was a field recording and used a newly acquired Marantz PMD 670 digital audio recorder, two Lavalier mics and a Shure SM58 microphone.

Show #6 back in the studio used the PMD 670 linked to a Behringer UB1202 mixer and two Lavalier mics.
