Podcast Episode 31 Re-recorded
http://andyroberts.me/andy-roberts/podcast-episode-31-re-recorded
Here’s another version of podcast episode 31 re-recorded on Wednesday morning with most of of the same songs roughly, as the one which went out live on Tuesday evening. So if you were there, online watching the show and chatting with Linda in one of the realtime boxes then you should notice this isn’t exactly the same performance. The instrumental guitar pieces for example, as improvisations will be will be very different. I’m sure one or two sings are missing too, and one or two added. That’s all part of the process. And the new strings will be over twelve hours old now as well, instead of being only 12 minutes since restringing. I had even thought of doing the restring live on the podcast itself, as a piece of performance a-r-t but Linda said it wouldn’t make a very good audio podcast and I came around to that point of view eventually. Here’s the web player, download link, tracklist and show notes for Podcast Episode 31:

Podcast #20: new Procaster tool, better audio quality?
http://andyroberts.me/podcast/podcast-20-new-procaster-tool-better-audio-quality
This week’s podcast is a landmark for being number 20 and for the change in technology. The switch from Ustream to Livestream was originally forced by connectivity problems and interruptive advertising. A downside was a slight loss in audio quality evidenced in the eventual mp3 files produced from the Livestream saved videos. There are several ways I could have tackled this, most involving an additional recording device such as a video camera or a digital audio recorder, which I don’t have yet. The audio recorder would cost about £150 and since the podcast doesn’t generate any income, cannot really be justified. The Livestream website kept suggesting the use of an installed app called procaster, but when I tested it the first time, it didn’t recognise my built-in webcam and seemed to want to run Windows on the Mac – yeugh!. But now there’s a proper Mac version and very good it is too. So this week is the first using that new technique, and I’m much happier with the technical quality of the podcast produced, number 20 – if not with the performance, but it was like going back to doing another prototype. In unfamiliar territory, I couldn’t resist playing about with the screencasting facilities and so there are only four songs on the cast this week, which is fine.
