I really can’t think of what to upgrade now. I still have the Behringers in case of in person group recordings or if students at my school need them, the Podtrak is great and I love the new mic and boom arm. I just plug and go – its great! Ami I set? No need for a mixer, audio interface (which the Podtrak can totally do by the way) or any other go between like I needed with my Behringers.
