Auphonic gives us non-engineers the sound quality that we want at the push of a button (literally).įrom automatic leveling and noise/hum reduction to encoding your finished episode (and pretty much everything in between), Auphonic is definitely a hidden gem in the podcasting world. And while having a good microphone is the most important element here, good mixing is up there, too. Unfortunately, most of us aren’t audio engineers. Even if your content and guests are amazing. The thing about podcasts is that if yours doesn’t sound good, many people won’t listen to it.

It would be a real shame for you to miss out on any of that awesomeness. And you know what? They’re all fantastic and amazing, and there’s a reason they are staples in the industry.īut there is a lot of podcast software out there that you might not know about yet, too. Pretty much everyone gets recommended the same set of “best podcast software” when they’re starting out: Audacity for recording (or Adobe Audition / Avid Pro Tools if you’re fancy), Skype for interviews/guests/cohosts, and probably either Libsyn or Blubrry for hosting. It’s easy and cheap to get started, and the internet is full of some really high quality podcast software that not only will make your podcast sound better, but can also take the whole production to a more professional level. Everyone and their uncle has something to say about things they love the most.
