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 21: Mary Mazurek
My guest is Mary Mazurek - audio engineer with 25 years experience, radio producer at WFMT Chicago including the “Live from WFMT” show, and instructor in the Department of Audio Arts and Acoustics at Columbia College in Chicago.
Because she's doesn't host her own podcast show yet (coming soon!), she joined the show from her makeshift studio in her closet including a homemade pop filter using a knitting hoop and panty hose!
We had an awesome conversation about many vital topics:
- Trying out her new microphone - Shure MV-51 USB
- EQ frequency bands and how they affect the sound
- Fletcher–Munson curves
- Compression philosophy and tips
- Microphone choice
- Microphone placement
- Proximity effect
Thank you for being a wonderful guest, Mary!
