Getting The Best Sound

I’m really looking forward to connecting with you on the podcast.
Here are some tips to help make sure we create the best-sounding podcast possible.

Seasoned Zoom user with a podcast microphone setup? Great!  

If you don’t -here are four ways to get the best sound to help us make sure the show makes for enjoyable listening.

1. Where possible please make sure you’re in a quiet environment. It’s super helpful if you can stay away from noisy fans, open windows, open-plan offices. Please also make sure you have all your devices (computer/cellphone…) off or, set to silent!

2. Rooms with soft furnishings are better than corridors or rooms with hard walls and floors where sound can bounce around. It avoids you sounding like you’re stuck in an echo chamber!

3. Rather than using the inbuilt microphone on your computer, it’s better to use the inbuilt microphone in the headphones that probably came with your smartphone. If you don’t have any, it’d be great if you can borrow some.

4. Please make sure you have a strong wifi signal where you are.
We’ll make sure to test everything before we start the official interview.
