Your Main Goal When Recording Remote Guests

Capture their audio as well as possible in terms of clarity, level and lack of distracting sounds.

That’s it. Then, in post-production you’ll be able to enhance the sound as necessary.

Vital to achieving this goal is sound checking each and every guest before pressing record.

When I soundcheck guests I go through a whole checklist to make sure I’m going to capture good audio. The checklist helps me understand and potentially suggest changes to the guests situation — their physical location, device (phone or computer), microphone, connection speed, mic technique, etc. And part of the soundcheck can be a bit of coaching to make sure they don’t screw up their audio during the recording process.

How do you soundcheck your guests?
