Podcasting in the Classroom with Vocaster
In today’s rapidly changing education environment it can be a challenge to keep students engaged and inspired. Educators are looking for new ways to address the varied learning styles of their students, and podcasting has emerged as a unique way to explore subjects.
Vocaster ensures that student’s voices are captured in high detail, ensuring an engaging listening experience. Vocaster’s intuitive design is accessible for users of all technical levels, and the innovative features allow students to focus on content creation rather than troubleshooting complicated equipment. Vocaster is compatible with headphones with a 1/4″ jack and any XLR microphone, ensuring a seamless integration with the vast majority of learning environments without significant investment in additional equipment
Adding the Focusrite Vocaster to your educational resources can help support innovative and inclusive teaching methods. Podcasting allows students the opportunity to more actively participate in their learning journey, and the Vocaster supports that by not letting technical challenges get in the way of your student’s creativity.
Podcasting Feature Highlight: Enhance
The Enhance function on the Vocaster can add warmth and presence to your voice, eliminating the need for compression and EQ processing. Simply pressing the Enhance button on the top of the Vocaster enables this feature. Enhance offers four podcaster-approved voice presets to bring out the best in any voice. The presets can also be tweaked inside of Vocaster Hub.
Podcasting Feature Highlight: Auto Gain
The Auto Gain function on the Vocaster will set the microphone input levels automatically, resulting in a consistent and optimal signal level. This feature is perfect for students new to recording audio. Auto Gain helps your students avoid distorted audio and will save time during post production by reducing the need for manual level adjustments. Auto Gain can be enabled with the button on the top of the Vocaster, or via the Vocaster Hub companion software.

Chris has also been named ‘Best New Guitarist’, ‘Best Blues Guitarist’, and ‘Best Pop Guitarist’ in successive years by the readers of Guitarist Magazine.
Chris kicks off the project with his distinctive guitar stylings. He settles on a chord progression and adds interest to the piece with extra expressive sounds with his guitar.
Acclaimed recording artist, songwriter, and vocal producer, KARRA, is known for her top-selling Splice vocal sample packs, and collaborations with some of the biggest DJs and producers in the industry.
Having amassed over three billion streams and 300,000 fans across her social platforms, KARRA also produces content documenting her creative process, career, and life.
For the second instalment of the video series, KARRA builds on top of Chris’s solid foundation with her own vocals and production style.
The final part of this series is brought to you by the founder of In The Mix Scottish audio engineer, Michael Wynne. In the Mix is the largest community of music makers and audio engineers on YouTube, with over one million followers.
