Podcast Editing: The Breath Issue

Noisy, phlegm-flecked breaths on a podcast are a menace and need to be dealt with!

Frankly, they're an assault on your auditory nerve.

That said, podcast editors do need to leave a gap where a noisy breath has been removed because not to do so will make the speaker sound inhuman.

We all need to breathe and our listeners instinctively expect to hear at least something that passes for a breath between phrases, even if it is silence.

So, this edition lays out how during the audio editing process, you can tackle the problem of sticky breathing.

Tip - stay hydrated and your breaths will be quiet and unobtrusive! 

About me
Hello, I'm Serena Gay, a BBC-trained journalist and a former international satellite TV presenter.

I have many years of news and audio production experience which I now use to great effect as CEO of a podcast making company called "Made4U Podcasts".

I've  also helped run family businesses in the UK and Germany in the tourism and wine education fields.

So I understand the pressures on businesspeople to perform, promote and reach new and profitable streams of clients.

That's why these podcasts are short, pithy and full of information - not blather!
