It’s geared towards the musician more than the podcaster, but the information still holds up.

What areas of computer recording or audio are kicking your butt lately?

I feel lucky that I am only here for another week, since the apartment I am staying in (as well as most of downtown Anchorage) is directly in the flight path of the nearby regional airport.

In fact, my podcast partner Tom took a brief moment to reflect on what he was saying just as a prop plane flew overhead. It was a cringe worthy moment at the time, but when I came to it during the post-chat edit, I couldn’t help but laugh. It was just one of those uncontrollable things, and while it may add a little character to my podcast, it also makes it painfully obvious that I am not recording in a studio.

But hey, it’s a podcast, it doesn’t have to be recorded in a studio.

My question is this: When you listen to a podcast, do background noises bug you? I assume that like me, location recordings get a pass for most of their background, but if something is recorded in a “studio,” does it bother you?
