097 - Upgrading My Mic Jey's Podcasting Journal

    • Personal Journals

I've had my Samsom Q2U for a few years now and I'm changing it for a Sontronics Podcast Pro ( https://www.sontronics.com/podcastpro ). In this episode, I share the logic behind my selection and the factors I am taking into consideration.

PRODUCTION NOTES:
Recording Mic: Zoom LMF-2 Lavalier mic

Recording device: Zoom F2 32 bit float Field Recorder

Recording location: Dining Table (No pillow-fort)

Recording format: WAV (32-bit float mono)

Sound Treatment Mixing and EQ: Adobe Audition

Editorial Edit: Descript.com

Mastering Sound Treatment: Auphonic Productions at Auphonic.com

Auphonic.com settings [to output as a 16bit mono WAV file]: Adaptive Leveler (on), Loudness Normalization (Loudness Target -19 LUFS ), Filtering (on), Noise and Hum Reduction (Reduction Amount: Auto), Sample rate: 44.1kHz

I uploaded the resulting WAV file to Anchor.fm to host the file and added the music from their free music stock.
