Podcast Radio Engineer

function like your own personal podcast radio engineer, so you can create podcasts that
make you sound like a professional host. A built-in Speech Enhancer optimizes sound for
your Mac, gender, and vocal range, improving the sound of your voice and simulating a
professional microphone, even when youre not using one. And a dynamic ducking
effect automatically reduces music volume when you speak, so your listeners always hear
the talk above the tunes.

podcast in the time it takes you to carry on a friendly chat even if your guests

or video iChat conference. Just start chatting and GarageBand simultaneously records the
audio one track for each guest, complete with buddy name and icon, so you know whos
saying what and when. And if youre using iSight cameras to record the action,
GarageBand takes a photo snapshot of each guest every time he or she speaks.
