Gormongous Posted April 18, 2015 This show will be fine Delerat, but when gorm decides to record the next one and whatever the cast for it is there no harm in him sending the audio to both of us. I've actually been holding out on organizing another 'cast until we have the final version, just so that everyone who contributed can listen and see what things they can improve upon. I've also thought about and practiced a bit being a more involved host, because I assume it's easier to edit out "Let's move on" or "Can you restate that" than to try and hew meaning out of five people hemming and hawwing about what Gintama's appeal is.

Twig Posted April 18, 2015 FWIW, there were moments when I felt like I wanted to jump in and try to steer things back on track (if only because I actually do have some very (very) minor experience hosting (with my old video games podcast!!!)). But I didn't want to step on anyone's toes, 'cause I also know from LISTENING experience that sometimes when you get multiple people trying to take control it can sound... weird? Basically what I'm saying is I could watch out for that, too, or I could just keep silent until you/we get better at this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Basically what I'm saying is I could watch out for that, too, or I could just keep silent until you/we get better at this. So far i'd agree with this, but part of what makes all of the long running podcasts work is that they have got comfortable ebough that the host (or others) all feel they can step in when needed to ask for clarification, explanation or just to steer things away from a tnagent thats run away with itself. But we are not at that stage yet & it shows. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WickedCestus Posted April 18, 2015 Were you guys all using actual mics or would a laptop mic work OK? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Codicier Posted April 18, 2015 actual mics, which was almost the problem the actual audio quality is generally pretty good but people were picking up a lot of background noise while "idleing" (or the mic also picking up the clack of their keyboard automatically at a level which was impossible to filter out without also filtering out soft speach).

N1njaSquirrel Posted April 18, 2015 I dunno if mine counted as an 'actual mic', as it was a headphone mic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Twig Posted April 20, 2015 Hah! Dude, it looks like you got a horrible electric shock maybe a dozen words in. I love it. Oh gosh. I started out so well I don't even know how that could've happened. Anyway, there will be theme music if there's not already. I've not yet listened to the thing Codicier shared, but I know Gorm had some music lined up at some point.

Codicier Posted April 26, 2015 I hate my voice. Its the worst. Seriously, there has never been more malignant or troublesome utterances committed to sound than those that escaped my lips during the test recording. Not only does it have a distinct nasal almost croaky tone, it hisses. Its like basketful of snakes & frogs mixed together. I want a voice like Blambo's, a nice well behaved sound that is pleasant on the ear and needed very little attention. Unlike my own which swallows up equaliser settings, and gobbles up filters before spitting them back out at me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Delerat Posted April 27, 2015 Nobody likes their own voice. You just have to really expose yourself to it. If you pay attention to anyone who speaks in public, there are plenty with weird voices, but those weird voices just become THEIR voices and we stop thinking about it. You'll come around on it.

Delerat Posted May 17, 2015 Cross-posted from the private discussion, in case people aren't paying attention to that discussion anymore, or if anyone who isn't in there wants to join in. Alright, so if people want to do another episode just to keep the ball rolling, I've gone ahead and set up another Doodle poll for next weekend. If we want to plan a specific anime to talk about, I've been watching Kekkai Sensen. It's new, about 5 episodes or so into its first season. I am open to something else if someone has something cool they want everyone to watch.Otherwise, bring whatever else you've been watching to the table. Here's the poll: http://doodle.com/9awybyn6bnqe6ptd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Delerat Posted May 17, 2015 The reason we're thinking of just moving on is to keep the ball rolling. I've seen projects like this get stuck on waiting for one thing to be done, and then the whole thing falls apart. I'd like us to do another episode, though it's my first, and I'll take a stab at editing it since I probably have more spare time for doing so, and we'll see how it goes.

I'd like us to do another episode, though it's my first, and I'll take a stab at editing it since I probably have more spare time for doing so, and we'll see how it goes. Also, it's worth pointing out that we only really planned Episode 00 as off-the-books practice, to identify any serious snags. The snags we identified were: i) going too long on our Whatcha Watchin' segment, mostly just because everyone tried to talk about ever show they were watching; ii) generally bad practice with sound recording, including a bunch of typing, clicking, and creaking; iii) keeping consistent with what we introduced ourselves as; and iv) a bit of perfectionism with the editing. Future episodes should be improved just by the awareness of those things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seamus2389 Posted May 18, 2015 ii) generally bad practice with sound recording, including a bunch of typing, clicking, and creaking It can be a bit of a balls at times but using push to talk instead of always on for speaking can help with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
