Hello and welcome to this episode of Speak PR. This is Jim James talking to you from the UK, and I'm actually trialling a new software today called Hindenburg. And I'm trialling this for podcasting because I've been looking at the ways that we can make audio for podcasting that is simple to do, because one of the challenges for content creation these days is the complexity of the technology. I've been using GarageBand for 225 episodes and And it's great, but it's really made for music making, and I'm not really doing that. So there's lots of functionality, and frankly, some of the keys and so on are really not what I need. So I've been on the hunt. I've tried Audacity, and today I'm trying Hindenburg. So let's share with you some initial impressions and why this could well be a great platform for you if you're looking for a dedicated tool for making audio.
