Recording with guests in other cities or countries? You’re not alone. Remote recording is a BIG part of podcasting, and while Zoom is the default for many, it’s not built for great audio. So what should you use instead? In this episode, I walk through the best remote recording options and how to make sure your podcast sounds as professional as possible, even if your guest is on the other side of the world. What you’ll learn: • Why Zoom isn’t ideal for podcast audio • The benefits of remote recording platforms like Riverside and SquadCast • What to do if your guest doesn’t have a mic • Why phone interviews should be your last resort • How to avoid tech headaches and make remote interviews easy EPISODE CREDITS: Host: Rachel Corbett Editing Assistance: Josh Newth LINKS & OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF: Download my free podcasting guide (https://www.podschool.com.au/podcast-guide) Check out my online podcasting course, PodSchool (https://podschool.com.au/) Click here to submit a question to the show (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScWepoep0HgIN1Fm5AZa5qyJ1NC5FDS0OVXNotbbdytSsHM1g/viewform?usp=sf_link) Email me: rachel@rachelcorbett.com.au Follow me: Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/_rachelcorbett/) , Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/RachCorbett) , X (https://www.twitter.com/RachelCorbett) , LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/rachelcorbett1) , YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/UCgUsLDEldBkYVF3mimdLsIw) , TikTok (https://www.tiktok.com/@rachelcorbettpodschool) or check out my blog (https://rachelcorbett.com.au/blog/) or the PodSchool website (https://podschool.com.au/) .
