That was really fun, both of you guys were really entertaining to listen to! I think the biggest thing aside from good audio processing to make it easier to listen would be just tighter scripting which will give it the polish that Gooosto is looking for.

Also why did both of you call Gusto, Gooosto? Is that the canadian pronunciation?

Favorite moment? When you played the sad trombone after his prom night story. Totally didn't expect it.

Heh, I saw that coming a mile away. But then, I think me and the Jayster share a similar idea of humour. :D

And I pronouced it "Goosto" because...hell, I don't know. That's the way I've always pronounced it in my head.

My current title is one of two nicknames a Halforumite has ever given me that I liked.

Always thought it was the way I pronounced it. I fucken played D&D with the guy for 2 years on Vent. It was either Gusto... "Me Gusto!" or Kevin. I'm shocked, if's it's like GUST-oh.

I think at some point in the interview I was going to say Shegokigo.... and I was like... I never said that word in my life, nor heard it and I was like SHEGODFDFMDEFFO.. or whatever that person's name is.

I pronounce it guh-stow but I don't really care one way or the other. Calleja insisted on pronouncing it goo-stow and so I didn't give a shit if I ever mispronounced his name.

Just finished remixing the Jay/Nick interview. Unfortunately, the forum only lets me upload 8MB max, and it's 8.5MB total. Hang on while I find somewhere to host it...

What service did Jay use, again? Ah, here it is:
http://www.2shared.com/audio/j3iyGS-h/The_Jay_Show-ThatNickGuy.html
It's just under 8.5MB in 24kb/s 22kHz MP3 format, playable by most modern devices, including some refrigerators.
Cutting out a lot of the dead space got the whole thing down to only about 45min, too.

Took a bit longer because at some point Dave shows up HI I'M DAVE AND I HAVE A HEADSET MIC THAT'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY MOUTH. WHY CAN'T WE HEAR NICK? Because we're all completely deaf now, thanks!

I'll keep the work files around a few days in case someone wants me to run off a higher quality copy, or something...

Thanks Pat, I appreciate it. :)

A more enjoyable listening experience for others I'm sure.

Now gotta figure out how to set it up so that it's a better product coming out of the gate.... mmm..

Post-production gets easier if you can manage to separate individual people onto their own channels (to allow for better dynamics adjustment later), but I know that is not always possible. Failing that, try to avoid "stepping" on each other during conversation, which makes manual separation easier. Pre-production is where you can really make or break an interview, though...make sure to test your levels/etc before you start recording.

I'm no professional, so I'm working more on stats than XP, but don't be afraid to do a retake if you think you need to. Easier to cut out a bad spot (dog bark/siren/cough) entirely than it is to cover it up.

Yeah, thats what I wondered, if both people could record themselves talking then Jay could mix it together. BAM. 100% better sound quality.

A microcassette recorder held close to the phone's earpiece, then played back into the computer using a cheap computer microphone while recording at 8khz mono with windows recorder.
