Reviewing Descript Rooms: Can It Replace Riverside?

Want to learn how to edit your own content using Descript? https://www.bambyacademy.com/learndescript Is it too much to ask that we have a one-stop production suite for podcasters? All I want is a way to record episodes remotely, edit them to my exact specifications and then upload them to podcast platforms and/or YouTube for one monthly subscription fee. I don’t want to use a heap of different tools and sharing files across multiple platforms. I just want one place to handle it all. This used to be something I thought to myself as I worked away on podcasts, and it felt completely out of reach. Surely no one-stop shop would exist. It’s too much for one software to handle. Well, Descript is trying its hardest to give me exactly what I asked for. But it’s not succeeding yet. In this episode, I break down where Descript Rooms is at, and why I don’t recommend it for remote recording.
