Hey there! Thanks for stopping by!
We're here with a fresh story from the editing trenches. We're shining the spotlight on Patrick Keller, a retired music teacher who’s now orchestrating the world of podcast editing. Imagine going from teaching vocals and piano to slicing and dicing audio waves – that’s Patrick for you!
He started his new career by working on a lot of podcast episodes that still needed editing. He quickly learned a lot, trying out different things like organizing guests and doing live shows. But here's the catch - Patrick mostly taught himself how to edit, relying a lot on plugins that, to be honest, sometimes don't work well.
With tools like RXConnect and Reaper, he now faces the challenges of audio editing without the instant feedback provided by old plugins. And talking about feedback, you won't believe where some of his adjustments originate from - a car test!
Stick with us as we dive deeper with Patrick, exploring everything from audio mishaps to eerie paranormal podcasting. Whether you are an experienced editor or simply curious, there is some valuable advice for you here.
Alright, let’s get rolling!
