Frequently Asked Questions
What audio format should I use for podcasts?
MP3 at 128-192 kbps is widely compatible for podcasts. AAC (M4A) offers better quality at the same bitrate. Apple specifically supports M4A, while most podcast directories accept MP3.
Why does each platform have different loudness requirements?
Platforms normalize audio for consistent listener experience. Matching their target means your audio passes through unchanged. Mastering too loud causes reduction; too quiet may introduce noise amplification.
