Thank you for leaving the recorder in frame. I enjoyed seeing it in real time use. Keep up the great work.

I think this is a great introductory series that helps solidify basic concepts, even for budding podcasters (like me) who are only interested in the audio side of things.

I did some tests for mastering audio for web. When played back on mobile devices limiter set to -6 dB sounded the best.
So, mixing beforehand around -6 dB sounded perfect.
For other projects, like -21 or -23 LUFS _for broadcasting, _ I mastered to whatever was required.

Good video. This motivates me to even learn how to use my new X-T3 to create videos, something I'm struggling with even though I have a good technical knowledge of photography.
