• Easy recording with any microphone: professional XLR, USB, wired and built-in;
• Automatic episode assembly and sound leveling for high-quality episodes, fast; and
• A selection of built-in music, or users can upload their own.

Libsyn provides its podcasters with a professional platform that are available everywhere podcasts are played. Auxbus will continue to operate independently within Libsyn, and its features and technologies are expected to be integrated into the Company over time.
