Podcast recording

Podcasts we record

Interview shows with guests, co-hosted formats, internal company updates, educational series and fiction with narration — as long as spoken word is central. We do not run live YouTube or Twitch production from this room; we deliver audio you can feed there later.

Teams from Amsterdam often cycle in; directions are on contact. Remote guests may join from a laptop when tested beforehand; pure remote capture via Riverside is not our default, but we discuss workarounds at intake.

Room and gear

The podcast table sits in a treated zone within our 3 rooms. 24 mic inputs on the console cover two hosts, a guest and a side mic for demos. Monitoring uses closed-back headphones to limit bleed.

Noor de Vries handles scheduling and podcast production; she helps decide half-day batch blocks versus hourly bookings. Longer days fit within Monday–Friday 09:00–23:00, Saturday 10:00–20:00, Sunday closed (night sessions on request). or by arrangement outside those hours.

Prep for hosts

Bring an outline on paper or tablet, not rustling sheets by the capsule. Silence phone ringtones in the room. Water between takes; avoid loud snacks at the table.

• Send intro/outro music ahead if you want it played in session (not recorded unless agreed).
• State who leads each segment so we can plan muting.
• Schedule breaks — an hour non-stop tires voices and skews levels.

Sample rate and mono/stereo choices are explained in our format guide.

During the session

The engineer sits in the control room behind glass or beside the table, depending on layout. We mark retakes on request but do not live-edit unless you want a radio-style workflow. Guests get the same headphone mix as hosts.

Our ceiling is 8 people in the building including crew; larger panels split across sessions or layouts. Minimum participant age 16 unless a parent or guardian books in writing.

What you receive

By default each speaker gets a 24-bit 48 kHz WAV plus a stereo mixdown for quick review. MP3 for hosting on request. Filenames follow your episode numbering when you supply it.

Editing, noise reduction, intro music mixing and Spotify loudness mastering are outside the recording fee — we can refer editors or outsource by agreement. Loudness notes live in the format guide. Archive: 12 months, then deletion per privacy policy.

Podcast recording rates

Consumer prices include VAT. Business clients receive ex-VAT invoices with 14-day terms where agreed. Deposit 30% on confirmation; free cancellation until 5 days ahead. See terms and conditions for no-shows and moves.

Not included

Editing, show notes, transcription, music licensing, room hire without engineer and location work off Haarlemmerweg 247 are outside Podcast recording. We do not promise chart ranks or download counts — we deliver solid technical audio.
