A second in the series about what you can do, inside and outside of production, to get your podcast to sound the best it can! Dan, a senior audio producer at Progressive Media joins Ash again to give tips on what you can do after you stop recording to make your content sound great.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Listen back to your audio, what you have recorded, before sending them to be edited. Test recordings are useful so you can discover any issues straight away.
• If you make a mistake, ensure you pause after and recollect yourself to make editing it out seamless.
• Don’t worry about editing out uhms and ahs and ‘fillers’ of conversation so much, it’s unnecessary and can often make the flow of the audio sound unnatural.
• Small mistakes are fine, they make your content feel casual and more relatable to your audience.
• People don’t realise the importance of mixing and mastering your audio, it is often taken for granted.
• If your content doesn’t sound good audibly, then people assume that your content isn’t good either.
• Recording remotely isn’t always your first choice but one of the most important things you can do to give it the best chance of sounding good is for you and your guest to use headphones.
• Do not use your built in laptop microphone, even airpods inbuilt mics are better!

BEST MOMENTS

“That little uhm in there is not detrimental to the conversation”

“If you take that relatability out of it you sterilise it and run the risk of people being alienated from your content”

“It’s not just about the raw audio, it’s about how that audio is processed”

“No single podcast I have edited has gone out with no form of processing in terms of mixing and mastering in there”

“Be wary of the internet connection you are using”
