If you have trouble with getting all of your audio to sit at the one volume level then look no further. Recently I discovered some free software to help even out your podcast sound levels. It’s called Levelator and you can use it on PC and MAC.
Once you’ve finished recording your podcast you should have a raw audio file. This is the file that you’ll edit down. That might mean getting rid of coughs, splutters, sneezes and other unwanted audio.
There’s no doubt about it – editing is a gift, but one thing I hear a lot is what I call “over editing”.
