Join Ash as he speaks to Dan, one of the senior producers at Progressive Media, all about what you need to do before production to get your podcast sounding the best it can be. Dan is the expert when it comes to producing podcasts and he gives some great tips and tricks to help you create the best recording and sound you can when recording your podcast.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Keep it basic, dynamic microphones work best for most people in most situations.
  • Don’t just buy things you see other people using, complex setups that you don’t know how to use are expensive and not necessary.
  • The money you can save on equipment is better placed on support services for your podcast, such as editing.
  • Don’t record in your kitchen or bathroom, it will sound awful. Any room with lots of hard surfaces will cause echo, reverb and delay all around you.
  • Knowing how to use the tech you buy is more important than what you spend.
  • Smaller rooms are better for recording than large rooms, it prevents delay.
  • The distance from your microphone makes a difference. With dynamic microphones, you need to be a bit closer to them.
  • Production in podcasting matters, those who sound good, sound professional, get better results.

BEST MOMENTS

“A trap a lot of people fall into is they use what other people use on the internet”

“You don’t need to break the bank to get good quality audio”

“Don’t record anywhere with hard surfaces all round you”

“Smaller rooms are better than bigger rooms”

“Production quality overall is much more important now”
