Hey GUEST NAME Thanks so much for agreeing to come onto the podcast, really appreciate it! Here's some info for joining when the time comes. Recording will be done on Riverside.fm. You can log in to the studio at this link: [YOUR STUDIO GUEST LINK] Recording Checklist Here are some tips to make sure you have an optimal recording setup: - Use a computer with a Chrome browser that’s up-to-date. - Check your internet stability. Ethernet cable connections are preferred over WiFi. - Use an external mic, if possible. Even the mic in your ear/headphones are better than your computer microphone. - Use headphones/earphones to prevent echo and increase audio quality, even if they don't have a microphone. - Close all other applications that don’t need to be open during the recording. This prevents CPU overload. Important: Please close all other programs that try to use your mic/camera. - Turn on Do Not Disturb on your computer to prevent any notifications or alerts. - Video is a priority for these shows so make sure you're prepared to appear on camera and your setup is camera-ready (as good as it can be). Avoid having any bright light sources directly behind you, like a window. - Riverside will be uploading your video in the background, so once we end the recording stick around for a minute until the upload finishes. If you have any questions just reply to this email. Looking forward to chatting!
