I had a lot of resistance to listen to this episode. But did and I am pleasantly surprised! Andrew’s new app sounds very interesting and I will try this week.
1. Thank you for shareing the great blog with us This is a great article and very helpful for everyone keep it up and share more like this.
Got a lot out of this – both the questions and the answers. Thank you! Just wondering if the audio payer can be adjusted so that it jumps in smaller increments. Often I just want to jump back 10 seconds and then have to sit there for 30 to hear something again. Once off it’s ok, but when you’re doing it dozens of times it starts to really waste a lot of time!
I kinda want to start a podcast just so I can play with Descript. It looks that fun.
I looove Descript! I just discovered it a couple of weeks ago and have used it to edit videos and it’s friggin amazing. Unlike any video editor I’ve used before. Thanks, Andrew!
am looking forward to Descript
