The IDIODC podcast today have focused on recording audio, mostly for eLearning, but I joined to see what tips I could pick up for my webinars and virtual classrooms too. 

If you didn't catch the live video session, you can see the recording here: https://www.crowdcast.io/e/recording_audio_eLearning

Part of the discussion was about hardware to use. I stated that "My Logitech 5540 headset is super comfortable, worn it for days and been fine. But you are still wearing one and it's also how it looks on video too."

Others shared about different headsets or mics that they use. 

What hardware do you like or not like?

What audio tips can you share?

  • On a slightly different note, I was introduced to the cloud solution Zencastr by Cara North and Joseph Suarez for their podcast.

    What I liked about it was that it recorded each person's audio locally on a separate track, so it's clearer and with less lag. I haven't used it myself yet, but I'm going to try it out soon!

  • Also on this session Brent Schlenker and Chris Van Wingerden talked about video very briefly at the end, highlighting that audio is more important than quality of the image.

    I agree, and I mention that in this Training Journal feature here: https://www.trainingjournal.com/sites/www.trainingjournal.com/files...
