Quality of Life Tips
- This lesson is packed with things that will make your life as an editor easier. There are some gems in this one.
Hindenburg Pro was made for spoken word audio
Included in the course is an extended trial and discount on Hindenburg Pro. It's where we'll record and edit. It has the right balance of easy and powerful for beginner to advanced podcasters. It's easy to learn but involved enough for you to have control over how your show sounds. As long as you're not doing advanced sound design or music, this what I recommend. Yes, I am a senior trainer at Hindenburg, but I was a big fan for years before I started working there.
This course is not sponsored by them and I don't receive a commission on sales. I'm just a Hinden-nerd.
Each lesson is short and easily digestable
The average lesson is about 5 min. My goal is to teach everything in ways that you can understand. No numbers, no math, no big audio terms without explaining them to you.
By the end of the program, your audio will sound pro and you'll be a competent editor
You'll be able to confidently edit yours - or someone else's spoken-word audio projects from start to finish.
BONUS
Free Extended Trial & Discount on Hindenburg Pro
Get an extended 60-day trial & a 30% discount on the first year of a Hindenburg annual subscription.
Who made the courses?
This course is led by me, Bek Johnson. I'm an audio engineer, podcast editor, and producer. For over a decade I've worked on countless podcasts, audio workshops, and webinars. And trust me, I know the struggle of trying to figure out this audio stuff on your own. I've had a pretty hard time with a lot of it myself. (Really!)
F.A.Q.
