Congrats! nostr:npub16as8gepztj9tvyx6n9y4h3cv3gaytgpl3g32jhcxlj6mcss72uaqjwg2tf can you share the gear/tools you used for this? I have no recording gear. BTW, I followed you on Fountain.fm 🤙🏽✊🏽
Sorry if you've already seen the post. These are people who wanted to get notified when I actually released from the pilot post.

Sure, I have been learning and figuring things out as I go. I only have very casual audio recording and engineering experience.
I bought a Samson Meteor Mic, Auphonic pop filter, and a boom stand to hold them. The mic is amazing and works perfectly with Audacity on Linux out of the box. I recorded the pilot without the pop filter and you can really hear the difference. I also had to work on my voice a little to relax and get some more resonance out of it so I wouldn't need any post processing like equalization or filtering. I'm recording in my bathroom closet because it's nice and quiet in there.
To edit the recordings, I silence out any breaths I take, remove the background noise, adjust the pauses between phrases and sentences to be the same length, and finally compress and normalize to set the right volume. I'm using rss.com to host the podcast and handle the v4v stuff, and it distributes it everywhere else.
It takes a little while now to get from start to finish, but I hope to get faster with time.
Very awesome! Thanks for sharing
