Zach Moreno and Rockwell Felder of SquadCast
In episode eight of Podcaster Stories, I sit down with Zach Moreno and Rockwell Felder of remote recording platform SquadCast, and the Between 2 Mics podcast.
After looking to use a remote recording solution for their internal team meetings, both Zach and Rock were disillusioned at what was on the market. They knew audio and reliability could be better, and so SquadCast was born.
They believed remote recording should - and, more importantly, could - be just as good as offline audio recording. We sit down to discuss the evolution of SquadCast, and how the podcaster experience is at the forefront of everything they do.
Topics up for discussion this week include:
How limitations of other remote platforms led to the creation of SquadCastWhy SquadCast is built from the podcaster's viewpointHow Zach and Rock's day jobs led them to how they approached SquadCastWhy audio quality equal to offline recording was a core goalHow SquadCast's progressive upload technology differentiates them from othersHow SquadCast solved the problem of audio drift in remote recordingsWhy the SquadCast team refuse to settle for the status quoHow the users of SquadCast have driven the direction of the platformHow they're trying to help educate remote podcasters through their Remote Podcast Stats Report and State of Remote Podcasting webinarWhy data shows the use of headphones should be mandatory for all podcasters How their well-known Board members and advisors became involvedHow the reciprocity of the podcast community drives Zach and RockWhy analytics is the next big challenge to bust in podcastingWhy new podcasters shouldn't get bogged down by the technical side of thingsWhy tools should concentrate on solving existing problems, not ones that haven't been found yetWhy you shouldn't be discouraged early in your podcasting journeyWhat Zach and Rock appreciate about each otherSettle back for an open and interesting chat about remote recording, and why settling for the status quo will only hold the podcasting industry back.
