Chris Curran chats with podcasters about their audio equipment, software and workflow to help you learn how to produce better sounding podcasts. You’ll also learn solutions to common audio issues as well as plenty of tips and tricks. By listening to this show you will gain a TON of knowledge and skills that will make a HUGE difference in your sound quality _and_ save you time! Subscribe/Follow today and start listening! Your host Chris Curran has a background in podcast production (Forbes, Dun & Bradstreet, J&J, etc) as well as music production (Sarah McLachlan, Jeff Buckley, Foreigner, etc). When he entered podcasting in 2012, he noticed that most podcasters (and producers) do not have a good understanding of fundamental audio engineering concepts, which sabotages the quality of their sound from the very beginning. This show, as well as Podcast Engineering School, helps podcasters and producers reach professional levels of podcast audio production.

episode 63: Steve Stewart
My guest is Steve Stewart, owner-operator at Steve Stewart Podcast Productions and creator of Podcast Editor's Club (Facebook group). Steve also offers an Audacity workshop.
We talked a lot about editing including advanced techniques like using very short fades to make edits feel natural, finding zero crossings, off-mic noise, keyboard shortcuts, breathing, joining half words, random noises, etc.
*Note: Here's the link I mentioned to an older episode of Social Media Unscrambled where I initially forgot to press record and so we had to restart the episode, which was sooooo awkward. Listen to that craziness HERE.
Here's a partial list of Steve's equipment and software:
- ATR2100-USB mic
- Audacity
- Backup recorder
- Ecamm call recorder
- Levelator
- iZotope RX 6 (de-breath, de-mouthclick, etc.)
Thanks for sharing so much valuable info with us, Steve!
