Magix Podcast Maker
By Rob Safuto on Sep 22, 2006 in Social Media |

Magix is one of those companies that puts out good software that rarely gets a lot of attention in the U.S. I’ve used their $79 Music Studio Deluxe product for years to create and edit digital audio. A few months ago I paid $55 for their excellent Magix Movie Edit Pro 11 software. Again, this was a great purchase.
Now Magix has a special podcast product called Podcast Maker. From the looks of the functions this is a stripped down audio editing package with the added bonus of publishing RSS feeds. You can record a pair of stereo tracks and add effects such as compression, reverb and de-noiser to make your recordings sound like a pro. When you’re done Podcast Maker will encode the MP3s for you as well.
I rarely if ever use more than two tracks on an audio podcast so I may just give this a try. The price is right on this software too. It’s $20 for the download version from the Magix website. I’ve always like the tools these folks put out so I’m glad to give my readers and opportunity to try this new product.

Yes, I’ve downloaded the trial version and am using it for the next couple of weeks. I will write about my experiences. In general it seems to be a great value already at only $20.
