And now, this week's episode.
Speaker:
00:00:19
While most podcast recordings are indoors,
Speaker:
00:00:26
there will be times when you might need to record outside.
Speaker:
00:00:29
With all the unknowns that can come with that, how can you ensure you still get great audio?
Speaker:
00:00:33
Here are three quick tips.
Speaker:
00:00:35
Use the right mics.
Speaker:
00:00:36
This is where dynamic mics are great, as they offer more protection from background noise.
Speaker:
00:00:41
Lavalier clip-on mics are also good.
Speaker:
00:00:43
Just make sure whatever mics you use, they're close to the speaker's mouth.
Speaker:
00:00:46
The closer they are, the less background noise can appear.
Speaker:
00:00:49
Respect the environment.
Speaker:
00:00:51
If it's windy, turn the mics away from the sound and focus on picking up as much of the speaker as possible.
Speaker:
00:00:56
Use a windscreen too, to help block out any wind or any other ambient noises.
Speaker:
00:01:00
And finally, post-production is your friend.
Speaker:
00:01:03
Even if you limit as much noise as possible when recording,
Speaker:
00:01:05
take the time to edit the audio properly afterward,
Speaker:
00:01:08
with noise remover tools as a starting point.
Speaker:
00:01:11
By taking the time to plan for your outdoor recordings, you'll still get great results.
Speaker:
00:01:15
Until the next time, happy podcasting!
Speaker:
00:01:17
Thanks for listening.
