PES 003: Kate Astrakhan

About this episode

Kate Astrakhan

Session #3 with Kate Astrakhan, Owner of Audio Adrenaline! Kate also hosts the Make Your Bed podcast. She has a ton of experience in radio and voiceovers - including that famous Greyhound commercial on which she sang, "Go Greyhound and leave the driving to us."

We discussed many audio topics including:

  • Kate not using plugins
  • Her Misophonia (see below, it's related to sound)
  • Her opinion on USB microphones
  • Her love of Behringer equipment
  • Super-detail editing
  • Adobe Audition

She also brought up an amazing use of a de-esser, and hopefully she will share that secret with us in the comments, etc.

*Here's a bit about Misophonia: also known as selective sound sensitivity syndrome, starts with a trigger. It's often an oral sound -- the noise someone makes when they eat, breathe, chew, yawn, or whistle. Sometimes a small repetitive motion is the cause -- someone fidgets, jostles you, or wiggles their foot.
