SoundTech unveils LightSnake Podcasting Kit

SoundTech Professional Audio today unveiled the SoundTech Podcasting Kit (site not updated), an easy-to-use package allowing anyone to create and place Podcasts on the Web. The SoundTech Podcasting Kit includes the LightSnake XLR Intelligent Microphone Cable, Sony Acid XMC software with a 1-year Acidplanet Prozone membership, a tripod microphone desk stand, and a professional microphone. The included LightSnake Intelligent XLR Microphone Cable plugs directly into a computer's USB port, reducing the complexity and clutter traditionally associated with digital recording. The LightSnake features SoundTech's patented "Live when Lit" technology cable ends that glow and flash as sound is transmitted, and Sony Acid XMC recording software allows users to easily record as well as edit Podcasts. The included 1-year subscription to Sony Acidplanet Prozone provides Podcast hosting that allows anyone to subscribe and listen to the Podcast. The SoundTech LightSnake Podcasting Kit is due to arrive in the first quarter of 2007, and is priced at $150.

Noisy audio cable

I have the Guitar version of this audio cable (it has a 1/4" mono plug at the business end instead of an XLR jack). The cable works, but if you have to bump up the input gain on the device there's LOTS of noise from the "Live when Lit" feature. The audio thumps and glitches in time with the blinking light.

Other than that, it works great!
