Well, this is nice. We’ve been awarded an Emmy® for our work in film and television.

We caught up with Trevor New. A composer, music teacher and violist. He sent in this fantastic exert of himself playing at the Lincoln Center for the Kaufman Music Center, with other performers in their homes. This was all achieved live, using Cleanfeed.

Doing a live broadcast or report from a remote location is fun. Your audience will enjoy a change and it’s a chance to meet them in person

Whether you’re a producer, presenter or engineer, you probably have a bunch of questions if you’ve never done something like this before. Going live, from anywhere remote, can sometimes seem daunting. But with a bit of planning, it can be an enjoyable and rewarding experience.

It’s almost exactly one year ago that Marc (co-founder of Cleanfeed) and I were invited for a thoroughly enjoyable discussion as guests to the Blind Podcasters’ Roundtable. We’ve made a steady stream of updates since then, so let’s follow up where we were then, and now.

I recently had the privilege of speaking with Marcus dePaula. Marcus, from Me Only Louder, has an astonishing career which has contributed extensively to his podcast production company that he runs today. We caught up about his live audio engineering days, his thoughts about the podcasting industry, an insight into his workflow and how he is helping producers all around the world with his new venture; Podcast Creators Lab.

Capital UK voice artist, Howard Ritchie, recently shared his story with me on how Cleanfeed saved him from a catastrophic career disaster, saying: “There are many digital tools I could do without, but not Cleanfeed”.

Learn how a small community theatre group used Cleanfeed to record a play with their remote actors. We caught up with Jim Park, front-of-house sound engineer for Thorold Community Theatre, who explains how “And Then the Lights Went Out” came together.

More and more in a tiny package! Today we’re launching our new Player, and new enhancements to Cleanfeed Pro. Let’s talk about studio tools.

Not so long ago we announced compatibility for Firefox. Today we’re going one further! Guests will now be able to join a Cleanfeed session using Safari, on macOS. This update concludes our effort to expand support to all mainstream web browsers; achievement unlocked!

Dealing with echo in the room? Or your co-host getting picked up on your mic. Whether it’s beginner or intermediate podcasters, you’re not alone in asking these questions. Instead of writing responses on forums, I though I’d write here.

For a long time now our Clips player has enabled broadcasters & podcasters to play audio in a way that’s heard, in full quality, by you and all your guests. Now we’re introducing its cousin: the versatile Player.

Over the last couple of months we’ve quietly introduced a new feature to Cleanfeed that opens up new non-linear workflow possibilities for recording, live performances and more. I’m excited to tell you more about it!

I’ve written on the topic of browser compatibilty before. If you use an incompatible browser with Cleanfeed you’ll be directed to use a compatible one on your system. This has led many folks to assume Cleanfeed is “Chrome only” as it was when we launched over 5 years ago, but that hasn’t been the case for a long time now!

I haven’t appeared as guest on a podcast in a while, so it was interesting to appear on Chris Smith’s Podtastic Audio recently. Within a few hours, Chris went from recording session to a published podcast that sounds great — a nice reminder that a technical workflow for a podcast needn’t be over-complex to get professional results.

When we started Cleanfeed, web-based audio was very much in its infancy. As early adopters we had to focus on very limited browsers to provide a reliable Cleanfeed experience while they matured. A lot has changed in those years, so it’s time to spread our wings a little: starting right now, a guest can join with Firefox!

The clean in Cleanfeed is all about getting your audio from one side of the world to the other, un-altered. But what happens when you need something beyond that? Find out about our audio repair tools.
