Zencastr Reviews and details

Social recommendations and mentions

• I’m trying to make a podcast with my Dad remotely

  Reason I am asking is because while Zoom can do what you ask, in the free version there is a limit to 45min. Instead I'd recommend https://zencastr.com/ which is designed for what you want to do. Source: about 1 year ago

• Huge boost in downloads after switching from Buzzsprout to Zencastr?

  At Zencastr we count downloads compliant with IAB standards. We are currently working on getting officially certified by a third-party and so we haven't included this in our marketing yet. If you send me the link to your show page on zencastr.com, we can take a look to see if anything weird might be going on. josh@zencastr.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• Best Zoom alternative for online recording?

  This tool claims to be a podcasting-focused solution, not a video conferencing tool like some on our list. Zencastr is the ultimate all-in-one podcasting platform that allows you to record, edit, distribute and monetise shows from the same place. Source: over 1 year ago

• Sorry Anchor! What host do you use?

  I was using Anchor, but switched over to Zencastr. They recently updated their platform and added Hosting/Producing/Publishing. Once I build up my monthly downloads, I'm going to reach out about Advertising feature. Source: over 1 year ago

• Best platform for vertical recording of podcast?

  Before Riverside, I was with Zencaster. I was very happy with them, and they recently just went through a big upgrade. They also have Vertical Grid options in their post-production. The reason I'm leaving is due to Riverside's integration with Spotify, as well as their ability to livestream in the Future. Source: over 1 year ago

• What's a good program for recording podcasts with hosts in two different locations?

  I like Zencastr. I've tried almost all of the online recording apps, and I think Zencastr sounds the best. Also, the free version should be all that you need. Source: almost 2 years ago

• Help me record both audio sources...

  Another option is to hold your conversation through an app that can record both. There is a bot in Discord named Craig that can do this. Also this https://zencastr.com/ both are free. Source: about 2 years ago

• What programs do you recommend for recording your podcast when you have a remote guest?

  Zencastr has been pretty good. My goal when talking to remote guests is to have them do as little work as possible. No fiddling with Audacity, recording files, finding storage for those and sharing them with me - Zencastr makes that very simple because they record things client-side and then upload to my Google Drive, where I can just grab the content and process it.

• Software for recording separate video tracks for quadriplegic friend

  Https://zencastr.com may help.. I’ve found it useful for recording remotely. I’m not sure if it will give you all the control you’re looking for but it’s worth a glance. Source: over 2 years ago

• Advice on recording apps to combine actors recording separately?

  You can try Zencastr for free. I used it for a day-long event last week. Source: over 2 years ago

• Using a private Discord Sever to facilitate remote recording.

  We've used Discord as our voice chat for years. We use Audacity to record all of our hosts locally, and we use Craig in the Discord server as a backup recording in case anything should go wrong with the local recordings (which it usually doesn't). I wouldn't recommend relying on Craig specifically since it records server-side, so it'll record any internet hiccups your hosts might experience. One friend swears by... Source: over 2 years ago

• The tools of the trade - The podcasting apps I used to create 341 podcasts in a year.

  Zencastr - While many rely on Zoom for recording, I use Zencastr. Zoom is excellent for meetings, but Zencastr video and audio is just better for editing and podcasting. Because the audio and video is recording on both ends and then auto uploaded to Google Drive when you finish recording, you get great quality. They are free right now to help podcasters out during Covid, so you have nothing to lose on this one. Source: over 2 years ago

• M1 MacBook Air effective podcasting tool?

  For recording, we use Zencastr and then I edit with Studio One Prime. Source: over 2 years ago

• question about recording podcasts

  During quarantine last year we recorded using https://zencastr.com/ - quality is pretty good as it records and saves locally - we just used zoom so we could see each other. But if we have to go remote again I have a scarlett 2i2 we will record on our local pcs using audition/audacity and have the other folks send me their localized file to pull together.
