Welcome to episode 220 of the IABC International Podcast.
Often we're asked how to record high quality audio across the internet between two or more locations. One of the solutions available on the market is Zencastr.
Josh Nielsen founder of Zencastr joins Dan to talk about the origins of the product and what it took to bring it to market. There is also a sneak peek at what's coming to the platform. This conversation also looked at the long road to an overnight success.
One of the benefits of this solution is that it records the audio at each end of the conversation, which is saved to webservers, uploaded to the cloud and made available to download. When setting up a call, all you have to do is send a link and once they click on it, they will be connected.
Other options people use in the world of podcasting include recording audio from Zoom calls, Skype and other VOIP services. However the audio is not always of the quality that you would hope for in an audio only podcast. Sound on these platforms tends to be downgraded as we have the visual information from seeing the person on screen and we compensate for lower audio quality.

I just wrote this for a colleague and I wanted to share it with you:
We shall see the sun rise again as a community, and we will bask in its warmth together.
