3-Person Podcast Recording Kit with ProFX10v3+ Mixer and Boom Arms

This 3-person podcast kit builds a full multi-host recording setup around a Mackie ProFX10v3+ 10-channel mixer, which pairs 4 Onyx mic preamps at up to 60dB of gain with a GigFX+ effects engine, editable presets on a full-color display, Bluetooth for dialing in remote guests, and a 2x4 USB-C interface that records at 24-bit/192kHz across three modes. Each of the 3 hosts gets an aluminum-bodied RCM03 condenser microphone with a cardioid pattern that keeps side and rear noise out of the take, wired with both a 3.5mm cable for direct computer use and an XLR cable for the mixer, a pair of PRO-M50 closed-back headphones with 40mm Neodymium drivers and a detachable coiled cable, and a DMS40 boom arm that swings out to 40" of reach and clamps to a desk up to 2" thick. A shared RHPA4 headphone amplifier splits the monitor mix across up to 8 headphones with its own volume control for every channel, so no two hosts have to share a level. A 6-foot RCTR106B TRS cable carries the finished mix out of the 10-channel ProFX10v3+ mixer to a recorder, powered speakers, or a streaming setup. Because every mic, headphone, and stand routes through that single mixer, a host can record a clean multi-track podcast, run a panel interview, or produce a live show without sourcing extra gear or mismatched cables from other brands. The kit scales with the show: run all 3 mics for a full roundtable, or bring the count down for a smaller episode, and the ProFX10v3+ still handles the mix, the effects, and the recording on its own.
