Creating the best audio, therefore, starts in the recording room. We\u2019ve put together a collection of <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">actionable <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">podcast recording tips you should study before recording your next episode. This advice will help you create clear and professional audio that doesn\u2019t take long to edit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Record with the right equipment<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While it\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">technically<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> possible to record a podcast episode with your laptop\u2019s built-in microphone, your listeners won\u2019t appreciate it. You need a few pieces of gear to get started. Don\u2019t worry: They don\u2019t have to be expensive. Here\u2019s what you\u2019ll need:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An XLR or USB microphone<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mixer<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pop filter or windscreen<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/7-best-in-ear-noise-cancelling-headphones-or-earphones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Noise canceling headphones<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Microphone stand<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recording\/editing software<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Undeniably, your microphone is your most important purchase.

Record in the right environment<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unless you have access to a professional podcasting studio, you&#8217;ll need to create a space to record the best possible audio. What makes a good space?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No noise from the outside. Close all doors and windows.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No machines running except your podcasting equipment.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not pets, children, or other people in the room.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lots of soft materials like couches, rugs, blankets, and carpeting to reduce reverb.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Spend a few moments warming up<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your mouth, throat and vocal cords perform better when they&#8217;re warm. Before you sit down to speak for 30 minutes to an hour, spend a few moments practicing your script and stretching your face. This will keep you from mispronouncing words and having to repeat yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Mute whomever isn\u2019t speaking<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a simple podcast editing tip that saves a lot of editing time. Mute whomever isn\u2019t speaking at any given moment. This way their mic won\u2019t pick up their voice, chair adjustment, desk creaking, or other background noises. It\u2019s just less to remove later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">5. Plant audio cues for mistakes<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mistakes are bound to happen. Slicing them out during editing is easy, but <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">finding<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> them can be challenging, especially if you\u2019re trying to edit quickly. You can create better audio and speed up your editing process by leaving a cue in the track to help you find the flaw later.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s an easy way to leave a cue in the track: Make a loud, high-pitched sound right after a mistake. This will force the volume level to spike up. Look for these spikes during editing to identify the mistakes to cut out.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6. Eliminate background noise as much as possible<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We can\u2019t stress this podcast editing tip enough. Every <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/how-to-reduce-background-noise-microphone\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">background sound you eliminate<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> during recording means less work during editing. It\u2019s critical that you take steps to ensure the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">only<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> sounds picked up by mics are the sounds you intend.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place blankets or rugs over hard surfaces.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Record under a blanket if you have to.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Turn off the notification sounds on your phone.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inform anyone else in the house or office that you\u2019re busy for a while.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interestingly, your <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">closet<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> is one of the best places to podcast. It\u2019s small (which means less surface area to create echos) and full of soft materials that absorb sound. It\u2019s funny, but it works!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here\u2019s Ira Glass, host of This American Life, getting some great audio in his home closet.

And in this matter, you can use the <a href=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/\">Krisp noise canceling app<\/a> that removes noise in real time as you record. You can use it with any recording app that supports changing audio settings, such as Audacity, Adobe Audition, Zoom and many others.<\/p>\n<p>[demo-new]<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">7. Resolve your audio issues early<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many podcast episodes have been ruined by <a href=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/audio-conferencing-problems\/\">audio issues<\/a> that no one was aware of during recording. The podcaster opens the file and finds the clanking from their heating unit, the buzzing of traffic outside, or some reverb from their office door. In these cases, you can spend hours editing the entire episode or trash the file and start over. Neither option is much fun.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your best solution is to make a test recording before you officially start your episode. Your goal is to identify any problems and resolve them before recording so audio files that go to editing are as clean as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">8. Take strategic breaks throughout recording<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t have to record your episode in one sitting. In fact, many podcasters find it helpful to take planned breaks throughout the recording. These are good opportunities to drink something, have a snack, stretch your legs, discuss what\u2019s next with your guest, and check for audio issues.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listen to what you\u2019ve already recorded to check for problems. If you followed our previous podcast recording tip, there shouldn\u2019t be any problems, but it\u2019s always good to check. If a problem appears and you let the problem persist throughout the entire episode, you\u2019ll have <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a lot<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of editing work to do before publishing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">9. Keep yourself well hydrated<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Water will settle your nerves, loosen your mouth and throat, and help you focus. It will also eliminate those natural clicking and popping noises we make when our mouths are dry. Most importantly, a hydrated body and brain help you stay focused.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drink at least eight ounces of water before you start recording. You can always pause to use the bathroom if necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">10. Create a noise profile<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A noise profile is a four to five second sample of audio from a silent room. Your editing software can use this sample to learn what should be removed from the rest of your audio. This is super simple in Audacity (our favorite podcast editing software). There is a great <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/audacity-remove-background-noise\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">tutorial on removing noise with this method<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8663\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/noisereduction.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1220\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/noisereduction.png 1220w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/noisereduction-300x241.png 300w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/noisereduction-380x305.png 380w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/noisereduction-768x617.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">11. Record each person a separate channel<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We all speak differently, but editing multiple voices on a single channel is painstakingly difficult. It\u2019s far easier to record everyone on a separate channel. This gives you control over their individual volumes and noise profiles. Most podcast recording software tools come with a multi-track recording feature.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you use Zoom to record interviews with your guests, we recommend watching this video tutorial on how to record each person a separate channel.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YT3SHcapD3E\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">12.

Use your microphone properly<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Good microphone discipline will keep your voice even and clear. It will also reduce the amount of editing you\u2019ll have to do later. These tips are important:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place your microphone even with your mouth.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sit back a few inches from the mic. Keep your mouth off of it.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place a pop filter between your mouth and the microphone.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep a stable distance from the mic (closer = louder, farther = quieter).\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Breathe slow and evenly. Sitting up straight makes your inhales quieter. If you need to inhale or exhale deeply, move your mouth away from the mic.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep your body still with your feet planted or the mic will pick up background motion, such as your shirt or headphones wire rustling.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t move things around your desk. If you like to use paper notes, move them silently.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">14. Wear headphones while you record<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you speak normally, you don\u2019t actually hear your own voice. You hear a version of it from inside your own head. You don\u2019t hear the version that everyone else hears. (This is why we all hate to hear recordings of our voices &#8211; it doesn\u2019t sound right.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wearing headphones during recording puts your ears right in front of your mouth (so to speak) so you can hear your true sound. This allows you to self-review and adjust your voice as you speak to make it more pleasing to your audience. For instance, if you hear a POP every time you say a word with a hard constant (\u201cp,\u201d \u201cb,\u201d \u201ck,\u201d etc.), you\u2019ll know to soften that sound.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">15. Stay quiet when it\u2019s not your turn to speak<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In normal conversations, we tend to insert phrases like \u201cyes,\u201d \u201cright,\u201d and \u201cuh-huh\u201d when other people are speaking. These interruptions are often considered polite because they exhibit your involvement in the conversation, but they can be distracting and confusing for podcast listeners.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Rather than try to remove these little phrases during editing (which would be a lot of work), train yourself to stay silent while other people on your show speak. If you need to express interest or active listening to your guests and\/or co-host, do so with body language.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">16. Watch your volume levels as you record<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep an eye on volume level in your recording software during your session. Most tools display your volume as a scale from green, yellow, to red.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8665\" src=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/audacity.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1220\" height=\"980\" srcset=\"https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/audacity.png 1220w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/audacity-300x241.png 300w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/audacity-380x305.png 380w, https:\/\/krisp.ai\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/audacity-768x617.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1220px) 100vw, 1220px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modulate your voice to keep your volume in the green. Let yourself wander into the yellow when you want to add emphasis, but stay out of the red.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">17. Be judicious with sound effects<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sound effects can add personality to your show, but only if they\u2019re done well. It\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">very easy<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to make your show seem cheap and lowbrow with extra elements, especially if you use loud and obnoxious effects. Use these elements sparingly and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">only<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> when the content calls for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">18. Trust your ears and instincts<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our last podcast recording tip is the most important: Listen to everything you record and follow your instincts. How does it sound? Does anything sound off? Ask yourself what can be improved, whether through editing this time or through better recording next time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re happy with your performance, make some notes about your setup.
