Ask Megan

"Hi, Megan, do you have any tips for recording in an open space like an expo hall?"

We recommend using a dynamic microphone if you can, like the Samson Q2U or Shure MV7, and get nice and close to the mic. 

If the final audio needs a little polishing, ​Magic Mastering​ can help smooth it out and give it that finished sound without a ton of editing.

That's all for this week! Thanks for listening & keep podcasting!
