Introduction to radio equipment
Our school's podcast room, which we may use to record our radio show, was shown to us and its usage was explained. We studied the distinctions between various types of cables and inputs, such as combo jacks, headphone jacks, etc. We learned about many microphone kinds, including condenser and dynamic microphones that connect to an audio mixer or interface via XLR cables before connecting to a computer, phone, or other device. Phantom Power, which can be obtained via audio interfaces or mixers, is needed by condenser microphones. While dynamic microphones only pick up sound from one side of the device, often the top, condenser mic detects and receives sound from all sides of the device.

Steps:
- Connect the audio interface to a laptop with a USB charger
- Connect one of the XLR connectors to the microphone's XLR plug
- Connect the other XLR connectors to the audio interface
Note: To know that the audio is coming from the microphone, it shows feedback when you apply sensitivity onto the studio/individual microphone (tapping/speaking) (Image 1.6), whereas it doesn't show feedback when you exert sensitivity (such as tapping) on the laptop's microphone, near the webcam. (as seen on Image 1.7)
> Apple's Voice Memos is used to test for the result of the connections
