@PriceofMusicpod @steve_lamacq @theweeknd @radiohead It seems as much an EQ thing as a volume thing. The body of the voice tails off and just becomes sibilance. Maybe it's just how Stu naturally speaks. 🙂
Anyway, I love the content and I appreciate the stance you both take on A.I. music.

@bry_cooper @steve_lamacq @theweeknd @radiohead Hey Bryan, sorry for the late reply to this. We think we sorted it, but how are you finding the show / mic level now?
English

@PriceofMusicpod @steve_lamacq @theweeknd @radiohead Stu's mic is a real problem. I miss so much of what he's saying because his voice level just dips out at the end of sentences. It's like there's some aggressive gate effect on it, or something. Please can you address this issue? Otherwise, really enjoy these podcasts.
