What do you do for your podcast that your audience would likely never know or notice? Me, 'adaptive phase rotation.' You're not going to hear this asymmetric waveform (pre-rotated audio was not clipped) but I can't handle an ugly, final waveform. You worked too hard for it not to be pretty;)

Not ideal, editing audio in FCP, but this what a 'checkerboard' edit, where you remove the audio for everyone except the active speaker, looks like. Not as time consuming as it looks but the tools to cut could be better. Biggest issue is when you make a cut, waveforms disappear... a momentum killer👎

Put together a supercut video of my new PC build www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpP6... which made me want to create a page for it on my website rayortega.com/pc which of course meant I should rebuild my entire website first rayortega.com ...seems like a logical, normal progression of publishing a video 🤪

And here you are in action! Video to come! Another great talk. Last minute magic, you're a ringer 🔔 !

This is actually leveled audio. Everyone in this podcast ep. sounds equally loud. "Loudness," how humans perceive sound, is partly a function of the tone of a person's voice (high vs low) ex: most people perceive 2–4 kHz louder than lower frequencies. Here's how I 'level' audio youtu.be/_vecHTGK7Yo

The script isn't done cause I'm easily distracted but the distraction was cleaning up gear storage & now the this drawer is just mics. 🎤🎙️ Went looking for my most sibilant mic., and the mess was too much to ignore, this is better. Also interesting, this was shot using iPhone ProRes (needs a LUT)

New approach to the timeline. I'm going to add chapters to the YouTube video so I might as well go ahead and put the timeline into the same order using compound clips in #FCP. Could also help me organize the story more, pre-publish. We'll see if it sticks;) #videoediting youtube.com/rayortega
