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 48: Kirk Bowman
My guest is Kirk Bowman, host and producer of The Art of Value Podcast. Kirk is seriously on top of his game in the area of podcast production. We had fun discussing his equipment, workflow and processing, etc. (list of topics is below)
I asked Kirk to send me the stock settings for the Broadcast preset in the multiband compressor which comes with Adobe Audition (because tons folks use this preset). See the show notes for a screenshot.
Kirk also told me about a channel strip which has a phase 'rotation' function (which is different than the much more popular phase 'inversion'). See the show notes for a screenshot.
Here are some other things we discussed:
- MOTU 1248 interface
- 4 XLR inputs
- Routing matrix
- AVB (audio over ethernet used to connect multiple interfaces together)
- Thunderbolt to Mac
- Built-in effects
- Match Loudness in Adobe Audition
- Multitrack recording
- Processing each track to -18 LUFS using Auphonic
- Multiband compression during mixdown
- Editing
- Upgrading equipment as he grew
Thanks for being a great guest, Kirk!
