This show focuses on the technical production of audio podcasts. 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.

- Because I do a lot of live streaming - need most of my processing (comp, EQ, de-essing, gate) baked in. So I have that for both the Neumann and Shure mics. I do add a little post-processing for podcasts and YouTube videos with just some light compression... normalization, then clip gain matching to -16 lufs.
- Everything exported to .wav for videos and editing. eventually .mp3 for podcasting to... Soundcloud(!) I know, but it works best for me (I can explain).
Thanks for hanging with us, Brodie!
