My guest is Aaron Dowd - Podcaster Success Lead at SimpleCast and host of The Podcast Dude

Great conversation covering lots!:

  • Shure Beta 87a microphone
  • Scarlett solo - audio interface
  • Logic Pro DAW
  • RX Dialogue De-noiser and De-clip
  • Loudness meter plugin aiming for -16LUFS
  • Bussing all voices to a single channel and adding effects to that channel, which effects all the voices simultaneously -- dialogue de-noiser (light setting), some EQ, de-esser, an RMS Compressor, and adaptive limiter. 
  • Editing in Logic Pro
  • HD 600 headphones
  • Using the Forecast app to convert to MP3 and add chapters. During production he marks where chapters will be, usually when the host asks a question, etc.
  • Link to a tutorial on using Forecast and podcast chapters: https://medium.com/simplecast/forecast-by-marco-arment-what-it-is-how-it-works-and-why-podcasters-should-take-a-look-ba446ffa8a35
