I love this video so much! Thank you for the tips. I will incorporate in my next podcast.

Fantastic content, but the music bed is too loud. I played this for some non-native English speakers, and they had a lot of difficulty understanding because of the music. Please consider making this more accessible by bringing the volume of the music down, or remove it altogether. It's not really adding much, and distracts from the great content. (A little ironic, because this is about audio storytelling . . ) But thank you for the information in this - it's really great.

Hi, Is there an option to hear yourself through the headphones while recording? If there is, how do you enable it? I am having troubles to do that. Thank you!

How I use special sound effects for making my audio story extra ordinary??

[aretherelakerstotalkabout]

I want to create a story telling series that emphasizes sports through the twilight zone template. Would sound effects be the most effective manner to capture the tone/setting. Or would having narration to set a up scene be better? Given theres multiple characters. I have the stories written out. I just don’t know how to approach it.

The music is quite loud and a bit distracting. Negates some of the authority of the speaker.

Whoever put music over this video shouldn’t be allowed to edit again till they get their hearing back.

background music is too loud to listen to the voice...
