We have addressed the topic of remote interviews on this podcast before and today we want to zero in on the option of using Skype for your conversations. There are a few simple ways that you can make recordings for an episode using Skype, and the first of these is to use the Skype software itself to record. This method is straightforward but does result in a single-track file which can be troublesome in the editing process. Integrating other apps, such as Ecamm Call Recorder, can help you get around this issue, and there are many comparable software options to cater specifically to your needs. Tune in to find out more!
