Podcasting tips : Is podcasting that difficult?

Podcasting tips:Audio that doesn’t sound right? Yes, that does happen. Maybe you taped an interview and didn’t realize there was a problem because you didn’t hear it. Or you had a one-time chance to record anything and afterwards discovered an inescapable issue (room noise, wind, plosives, etc.). What if it was filmed and sent to you by someone else, and now it’s your responsibility to clean it up and make it usable?

We’ve all been in situations like this. Audio challenges exist whether you operate on location or in a controlled environment. We also deal with them at Music Shop Nepal. Thankfully, there are a plethora of sophisticated software tools available to deal with audio issues these days, and there is always being discovered more and more powerful solutions. (

There are some really severe cases to really put our software to the test, so don’t be surprised by how bad they sound. You’ve probably heard worse if you’ve ever been entrusted with “correcting terrible audio.” So, here are some of the most common issues we face, as well as some fantastic answers to them.

It was a lot of fun going over these frequent audio issues with Ram. Each issue presented its own set of challenges, and we had the opportunity to try out a variety of tools in order to find the best solutions. Some of our old standbys were not always the greatest. We immediately discovered that each tool has its own set of strengths, and that most of them require some tinkering to achieve the best results, often requiring the use of multiple tools. There was a lot of A/B testing of the same plug-in with different settings, some of which were quite light and others which were rather extreme.

Her are some podcasting tips for you:

Mouth Noise

When someone speaks into a microphone, the microphone is usually closer to their lips than the listener’s ear. As a result, it detects sounds that we would ordinarily ignore. Mouth noises are one of them, and they sound like a clicking, tickling sound, especially when a person’s mouth is dry. If you hear this during recording, offer the artist a drink or move the mike to fix the situation. But what if it’s on your recording and the performer is no longer available? Here are some tools we discovered to help with this problem.

Wind

You’ll never have to worry about wind noise if you’re recording indoors. You’re in luck. Wind noise can be highly challenging for individuals that need to record outdoors for location sound or sports events, often drowning out the desired sound. You can cover the mic with a fuzzy pop filter while recording to eliminate much of the sound of the wind impacting the diaphragm.

DE- Essing

Sibilance is an issue since it is so irritating and ubiquitous. Sibilance is the name for exceptionally loud “S” noises in a voice recording (typically created by the talent’s own voice). When recording, the only options are: A) relocating the microphone so that it is not immediately in front of the talent’s lips, or B) switching to a microphone that reduces high frequencies. What are your options once the voice has been recorded? In the past, we would just reduce the high frequencies (treble reduction) or utilize a hardware de-esser, which reduced intelligibility – not good. Now a days there are significantly more powerful tools at our disposal to assist us in resolving this issue.

Room Sound

The sound from the microphone will sound roomy, boomy, or washy if the talent is in a “live” (ambient, reverberant) room. When recording, the solution is to move the microphone closer to the performer so that the direct to reflected sound ratio is higher. If relocating the mic closer isn’t possible or the sound has already been captured, there are a few more solutions for dealing with the reverberant sound.

These are great for you!

What are Digital Pianos?

Acoustic vs digital piano: A digital piano is a type of electronic keyboard instrument designed to serve primarily as an alternative to the traditional acoustic piano, both in the way it feels to play and in the sound produced. Digital pianos use either synthesized emulation or recorded samples of an acoustic piano, which are sounded through an internal loudspeaker. The digital pianos do not need to be tuned, and their tuning can be modified to match the tuning of another instrument.

What are acoustic Pianos?

An acoustic piano produces sound with felt-covered hammers hitting steel-wire strings. It features electronic speakers to playback high quality recordings taken from the very best acoustic pianos. It gives you an authentic, acoustic sound that has a warmer, more resonant tone. You also have better control over the articulation and expression of the musical notes.Quality acoustic pianos have a resonance, warmth, and space to them that simply cannot be recreated by any digital means.

Acoustic Piano VS Digital Piano

An acoustic piano produces sound with felt-covered hammers hitting steel-wire strings. A digital piano doesn’t use hammers; instead it features electronic speakers to playback high quality recordings taken from the very best acoustic pianos.

The touch of a piano is important to the player. Playing on stiff keys can be frustrating as can keys that are too light with no resistance. Digital pianos are able to simulate the weighted keys of an acoustic with seamless lifelike hammers. There is even the option on some digital pianos to adjust the touch sensitivity of the keys to suit a player’s preference. A low touch sensitivity means the player has to press the keys harder to make them louder. High touch sensitivity means you don’t have to press as hard for the same loud result.

Digital pianos have a range of sounds available so you can switch between strings, church organs or harpsichord at the touch of a button. Some digital pianos let you split the keyboard so a certain sound is played at the bottom with a different sound at the top. This can make for a more expressive and varied performance, and learners often have fun experimenting with sounds.

Some Facts

• Acoustic pianos need tuning on a regular basis as well as general maintenance and restringing. Digital pianos don’t require tuning.
• Acoustic pianos are larger than digital pianos and need much more space to get the optimum sound.
• Digital pianos generally weigh less and can be moved around and transported with little hassle.
• Digital pianos incorporate features that allow for experimentation in playing, can be motivational to practice and lets players explore composition and recording.
•  An acoustic piano offers just one sound; a digital piano gives you a broad choice of pianos and other instruments.

Acoustic vs classical guitar: In this blog you will be known about the main difference between the acoustic and classical guitar. Let’s begin with :

Acoustic Guitar

An acoustic guitar is a musical instrument in the string family.When a string is plucked its vibration is transmitted from the bridge, resonating throughout the top of the guitar. Acoustic guitar strings and electric guitar strings are made of metal. The acoustic guitar’s soundboard, or top, also has a strong effect on the loudness of the guitar. The acoustic guitar has a hollow body, and an additional coupling and resonance effect increases the efficiency of energy transmission in lower frequencies. An acoustic guitar can be amplified by using various types of pickups or microphones.

Classical Guitar

The classical guitar (also known as the nylon-string guitar or Spanish guitar) is a member of the guitar family used in classical music.The term modern classical guitar is sometimes used to distinguish the classical guitar from older forms of guitar, which are in their broadest sense also called classical, or more specifically, early guitars. It is an acoustic instrument. The sound of the plucked string is amplified by the soundboard and resonant cavity of the guitar.All strings are made from nylon, or nylon wrapped with metal, as opposed to the metal strings found on other acoustic guitars. Nylon strings also have a much lower tension than steel strings, as do the predecessors to nylon strings, gut strings (made from ox or sheep gut).

Acoustic vs Classical Guitar

The fretboard of a classical guitar is a lot wider than that of an acoustic. Quite often classical guitars will not have the fret markers (dots or inlays) along the fingerboard either.
The shape is very different too. Acoustic guitars predominantly come in a dreadnought shape which is considerably larger than that of a classical guitar and cutaways where you have access to the higher frets on classical guitars are rather rare.
Often classical guitars are a little cheaper than their acoustic cousins, which is why many beginners start with a classical guitar first.

Both these guitars are in fact acoustic guitars, except one uses nylon strings (classical) and the other uses steel string (acoustic).
A classical guitar uses nylon strings whereas the modern acoustic uses steel string, hence it’s often referred to as a “steel string acoustic”. These strings both sound and feel very different indeed. The nylon strings of a classical guitar are a lot thicker and mellower or softer sounding than those of a steel string.
With steel-string acoustic guitar strings you get a very twangy and bright sound that resonates (lasts longer) than a classical guitar. They also feel very different too. Nylon strings are thicker.
Steel-string acoustic guitars use a variety of metals for strings, including nickel and bronze and they are closer to the likes of electric guitar strings i.e., thinner and somewhat sharper on fingers

The difference in strings and shape plays a huge part in how the two guitars sound which will also be a deciding factor when it comes to choosing one over the other. Think about what type of music you prefer to listen to:
If you like Gypsy Kings-style music, Flamenco or Spanish guitar, the classical guitar is right for you and often the main, if not only, type of guitar those types of musician’s use. Pretty much every favorite band of yours will be using a steel-string acoustic rather than a classical guitar.
