First, my sincere apologies for the sound quality this week. It was an in-person interview and I haven't been able to arrange a pair of clip-on microphones yet. Hopefully in six months or so, when my budget improves I'll be able to purchase the ones I want but they aren't cheap! I swear it didn't sound that bad in editing but I just listened to it on Spotify and was not happy. I remember Dave from 'The Shallow End' imploring content creators to invest in a microphone. I am using an OK one for the online interviews but after this I feel it's crucial to invest in some clip-on microphones for in-person interviews in the future. Thanks Dave! Just know I'm working on it.
In the meantime, I just recorded another in-person interview and to make sure sound quality was as good as I could get, we recorded it in my car! Quite unique. The sound is much better for that one! No echo that sounds like we're talking in the bathroom!
