Setting Up For Podcast

I’m still hearing a slight reverb in the room.

Reverb and echoes are killers. There are no post production tools to get rid of it and it causes theatrical problems.

There is an explainer video producer that I like for the wrong reasons. He has terrific, clear video with excellent lighting, good color, and neat theatrical backgrounds. When he starts talking, he turns into a kid recording in the bathroom.

On the other side of that is Marques Brownlee (MKBHD) and his technical explainers. He recently did an explainer video about his studio. He put sound control panels in the ceilings of all his sound rooms and carpeting on the floors. He always has outstanding, clear sound. That video has over 4 million hits.

You don’t have to do soundproofing in the whole floor of a building. You can do it with two furniture moving pads and some plastic pipes.

I called it the kitchen table sound studio.
