Software that creates, edits, uploads and publishes the podcast episode is readily available on the internet.

The ease of finding these tools online has made getting into podcast production reasonably easy.

High-quality software that provides better tools requires a certain amount of fees or subscriptions. If you want to start a podcast or learn the basics, use digital audio editing tools available free of cost and then upgrade as you go.

Recording and editing a podcast are different processes. We recommend you look for decent recording software that lets you edit the podcasts, provides technical support and keeps a record of your files, all in one place.

For saving your raw and edited files, especially with multiple podcasters, look for software that offers a split-track recording function. This helps in maintaining the quality of your podcast regardless of who is speaking.
