Short answer: To record a podcast remotely, use a browser-based platform (Riverside, Zencastr, SquadCast) that records each guestโs audio and video locally in high quality, then uploads the clean files โ so your recording never depends on a shaky internet connection.
Why not just record a Zoom call?
Video-call apps compress audio and drop quality when the connection dips. Dedicated podcast platforms record each participant locally at full quality and sync afterwards, giving you separate, editable tracks.
How local recording works
Each guestโs device captures its own high-quality track. When the session ends, those files upload to the cloud, so a lag or disconnect during the call doesnโt ruin the final audio.
Get everyone sounding good
- Ask each guest to use headphones (stops echo) and a dedicated mic, not laptop speakers.
- A wireless clip mic like the OBSBOT Vox gives guests clean audio with no setup.
- For video, an AI-tracking webcam such as the OBSBOT Tiny 3 keeps remote guests sharp and framed.
