I've attended every single Podfest since 2014. And this year it was great to see so many friends and colleagues in person again!
Here are some of my experiences, notes and highlights of the event:
MY TALK:
"How to Use Compression & Normalization (Mandatory for Creating Professional Grade Audio)" ---> The full presentation will be published soon!
Outline what I covered:
- Normalization (Peak and Loudness) (When and where to normalize audio)
- Compression (Why, controls) (Demonstrations of compressors, upward compression, vocal riding, limiter, and a great sounding plugin chain)
*Audio Production Challenge for my listeners: Compress the ultra-dynamic audio clip that I used for demonstration in my presentation and send me your processed audio file!
