    Fantastic show. I cannot wait to try Syncany!

    Why do you, dear presenters, sound like you’re talking through the telephone when interviewing someone on the phone? I find it hard to keep focussed if everyone is talking like that.

      Yes, it’s strange. The balance unit is supposed to separate the outgoing audio from the incoming audio. But it doesn’t, so to avoid over-levels I have to duck the local mic levels. Assuming that the phone line is OK, I need to play with the balance unit some more to see if I can find some better settings.

    I apologise if this has been discussed elsewhere, but, why don’t you use Skype and then record the conversation? The audio quality when interviewing guests in other podcasts I listen to is higher than connecting to the phone line.

      I’m sure Tony can give you the specific reason if there is one, but I imagine it’s much simpler to have a telephone unit (which is designed for this sort of thing) connected up to the mixer with all the mics going back down the line as well as to the laptop doing the recording rather than using a separate skype laptop. Plus Skype’s proprietary, and the podcast’s produced using free software.

        Hi again,

        Now you say that, I am sure I remember it being discussed that only free software tools are used to produce the podcast. In that case, while I would like to hear better interview audio quality, I can accept why it cannot be at this present time.

        Matt
