The Importance of Audio Quality

00:01:24
Speaker
Okay, there's a never-ending question about audio quality.
00:01:27
Speaker
Do you think audio quality matters?
00:01:33
Speaker
Sige, ito yan.
00:01:34
Speaker
Itong point ko dyan.
00:01:36
Speaker
And this is my own opinion.
00:01:39
Speaker
Tatanungin muna kita, pag nanonood ka ba ng YouTube, pag mahangin yung audio, tinutuloy mo pa?
00:01:47
Speaker
Depende kung gaano kalakas yung hangin.
00:01:50
Speaker
Pwede ba, nasa outdoors and then mahangin yung, mahangin yung, what's up guys, welcome to my blogtops.
00:01:58
Speaker
It really affects, I think.
00:02:00
Speaker
Yeah.
00:02:00
Speaker
Kasi audio is 50% of the video.
00:02:06
Speaker
Because even how good the production quality is, if you're a bad audio, you can just swipe it.
00:02:11
Speaker
You can swipe it.
00:02:13
Speaker
It's on YouTube.
00:02:15
Speaker
How are we, podcasters?
00:02:18
Speaker
We don't have audio.
00:02:19
Speaker
We don't have video.
00:02:21
Speaker
Especially the audio only, the purists that are called audio only.
00:02:25
Speaker
How do you convey your message if it's sad to be audio quality?
00:02:28
Speaker
Right?
00:02:29
Speaker
So, for example, this is not me, but just an example.
00:02:33
Speaker
The podcast is discussing about relationship.
00:02:38
Speaker
Relationship is the topic.
00:02:40
Speaker
Kasi yun yung sikat, yun yung madami, di ba?
00:02:43
Speaker
Yung isang podcast, ang topic is about ghosting.
00:02:48
Speaker
So yan, nalala ko yung last year, ang daming relationship topics about ghosting.
00:02:53
Speaker
So, pag pinakinggan mo yung isa, tapos medyo hindi maganda, lipat ka.
00:03:00
Speaker
Sayang.
00:03:02
Speaker
Sayang yung opportunity na mapakinggan yung episode mo kung mag-switch lang or lilipat lang yung listener.
00:03:09
Speaker
So, audio quality, though at first it's not that important, especially if you're starting and you don't know yet what you're doing, okay lang yon.
00:03:20
Speaker
Pero there's always an expectation that eventually you will be improving.

Encouragement for Podcasters

00:03:25
Speaker
You will improve.
00:03:26
Speaker
Especially if you do it on a consistent basis and you research and you apply the lessons you learn while you're studying what techniques to do or editing tips that you get on a group or on YouTube or wherever, kesa sa workshop or a specific course.
00:03:46
Speaker
Believe me, that's what I did.
00:03:47
Speaker
You apply it and eventually you improve.
00:03:50
Speaker
Because you just practice it.
00:03:51
Speaker
If you do it always, the repetition
00:03:55
Speaker
Pag palagi mo yung ginagawa at nakuha mo na yung tamang timpla sa pakinig mo, kasi kung maganda sa pakinig mo yan, most probably maganda rin sa pakinig ng iba.
00:04:04
Speaker
Para wala lang naman tayo ng hearing senses.
00:04:08
Speaker
Malakas at mahina lang naman yan.
00:04:10
Speaker
So, yun.
00:04:11
Speaker
So, importante ang audio quality.
00:04:13
Speaker
In my opinion, kasi yun lang yung pinangahawakan natin sa listeners natin.
00:04:19
Speaker
And we are only borrowing the listeners' time.
00:04:23
Speaker
Kung 20 minutes man yan, kung 1 hour man yan, or long form na 3 hours, maladyo rogan, or kung siyong podcaster na naglo-long form,
00:04:33
Speaker
we just have to borrow the time of our listeners.
00:04:36
Speaker
So let's ensure that if they click the link and it routes to our episodes, we give them 100% quality.
00:04:43
Speaker
It's not perfect, it's the editing.
00:04:46
Speaker
You know, there's no arms, no ass, no ass, no... We'll be able to do that.
00:04:57
Speaker
breathing, mga clicks, mga hiss.
00:05:02
Speaker
Darating tayo dun.

Personal Growth and Community

00:05:03
Speaker
And wag mong in-compare yung sarili mo sa iba.
00:05:07
Speaker
Kasi yung iba, most probably, yun yung trabaho nila.
00:05:09
Speaker
Kaya magaling sila.
00:05:11
Speaker
Yeah.
00:05:12
Speaker
Kung nagsisimula ka pa lang, ito lang yung kaya mong gawin.
00:05:14
Speaker
Improve mo next.
00:05:15
Speaker
Don't ever compare yourself to others.
00:05:17
Speaker
Kasi pag ginawa mo yun, you're just setting yourself to fail.
00:05:21
Speaker
And hindi natin gustong mangyari yun.
00:05:23
Speaker
So don't ever do that.
00:05:25
Speaker
You can improve by practice.
