GEAR I USE: Laptop: https://amzn.to/2Jpi0PM Camera: https://amzn.to/2LqBZOG
Yes, that is it. The computer audio input and output has worked great for both videos and the podcasts. Camera doesn't have great battery life for videos but it works well enough. I did get an SSD for the laptop in early 2018. SSD: https://amzn.to/2szRZHo
