Podcast Setup

 

In need of help.

I'm trying to create a professional podcast set up.

I need the most help with the PC build.

I also need some recommendations on how I'm going to capture the audio and edit it.

Please throw me recommendations and any questions you have. Guide me in the right direction. I appreciate it. 

 

 

The two links I'm comparing

I have an excel sheet of what I have listed so far comparing the two and my choices.

For how to capture and edit audio, I would recommend you pick up a Focusrite Scarlett Solo/2i2 and use a good XLR mic like an Audio-Technica AT2020. Recording and Editing can easily be done in Audacity, a free and good piece of software.
