The main thing that Podcasters want to do is get their voice out there and that means recording audio on your Chromebook with the associated editing tools to perfect the process. If there’s a major drawback to using a Chromebook, it’s that the Chrome OS isn’t something that is widely embraced by audio editing tools and the various software that’s necessary for putting together a well-edited podcast.įortunately, support in these areas is growing, with tools such as Spreaker coming immediately to mind. The Chromebooks that most people are familiar with, like the kind that are designed for light browsing, streaming video content, and entertainment, are fading into the background of Chromebook history with newer and more powerful devices rising to the forefront.Ĭloud-based apps and editing services are also becoming more powerful and feature-rich and can now cater to the vast majority of your podcasting needs. However, Chromebooks hitting the shelves nowadays are becoming more competitive in the pure processing power arena, especially with the kind of competition that includes Microsoft’s Surface Pro Series of tablet and laptop hybrids and, of course, the Apple iPad.
you’ll have to make do with cloud-based, Play Store and Linux apps which won’t be as powerful or feature-rich as the type of audio software you can download onto a Windows or Mac laptop. You need to understand that you cannot download software onto Chromebooks in the same way as you can on Windows and Mac devices.įor example, on a Chromebook, you can’t go to the Adobe website and download and install Adobe Audition on your device to take care of all your podcast recording and editing needs. However, If your Chromebook is too old to run Linux or Play Store apps you could still use web-based services like anchor.fm to record, edit, publish and distribute all of your podcast episodes. If you have a newer Chromebook that can install the Linux development environment and run apps from the Google Play Store then it will be good for podcasting.
