PES 104: Marc Bakos of Cleanfeed

My guest is Marc Bakos - audio engineer and partner at Cleanfeed.

We discussed his service as well as lots more:

• Marc's setup: TLM 49, Yamaha MG-12 mixer, Dbx 286s on insert, Prism Sound Titan external 1U sound card ($3k)
• PMC TB2+ speakers in his home studio
• What is Cleanfeed?
• The audio and technical backgrounds of Cleanfeed's creators
• Chrome on Android works well!
• Audio Quality: Pro version offers up to 320kbps quality. Standard voice 64kbps. And it can record in Stereo. Constant bitrate CODEC so there are no artifacts (OPUS)
• No drops - how? Will try peer to peer initially. Fully encrypted. If firewalled, it goes through a relay server.
• Ducking? No!, but can turn it on on a per participant basis.
• Leveling/Processing? No.
• No local recording for participants - all recording is done in the "studio's" Chrome browser.
• Remote guests are combined onto one track
• How does it avoid dropouts and glitching, etc.?
• Downloading mid-show? Yes.
• What can participants do to make sure their audio comes through clear and uninterrupted?
• Good metering
• Cart wall - cool, but no volume control at this time.
• Multiple input devices - bring several devices into Cleanfeed.

Thank you for being a great guest, Marc!
