Grey salad. Well, I suppose that’s quite threatening. twitter.com/RussInCheshire…

@AthanSpod My guess is that the peak volume is *already* actually quite high because of transient peaks (so simple normalisation doesn’t work.) That’s usually the story with non-pro voice recordings. Maybe there just aren’t enough good, free podcast production tools yet.

@AthanSpod Yeah. Needs dynamic range compression and normalising, at least. There used to be a tool called The Levelator you could point amateur podcast producers at that would try its best to work things out well, but I think it went away.

Working on my Edinburgh routine where I spend five minutes at the start of other comedians’ performances jumping up in front of them and asking the audience to allow cookies and sign up to a newsletter for 5% off their first three jokes.

@AthanSpod Ah, should have read this one first! Maybe not all boosting algorithms are created equal, though…

@AthanSpod Sadly not for Android, but the Overcast podcast player has a great feature (“Voice Boost”) where it dynamically levels the podcast audio stream. The programmer is a podcaster and knows how stuff should be levelled, too. Wonder if there’s a similar feature in an Android app?
