In today’s episode we show you when and how to setup a mix-minus when you record a podcast with your Sound Devices MixPre and you have a remote guest via Skype. A mix-minus makes it so that your remote podcast guest doesn’t have an annoying echo of their own voice in their headphones.
If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.
