HGTV and testing the Podcast Factory

One of my clients, Kimberly Wilson of Hip Tranquil Chick podcast, is going to be featured on HGTV's I Want That!: Tech Toys. She'll be taking a look at the M-Audio Podcast Factory, a software-hardware package that includes a simple mixer with a USB connection and a dynamic microphone... all in one. My initial reaction is that a dynamic mic isn't as warm sounding as a cardioid, but I'll hold off judgment until I hear the sound quality. I definitely like that the included software is both Mac and Windows compatible. Should be an interesting test drive... we tape next week!
