Customer Testimonials

After reviewing all tools on the market for podcasting, Riverside was a clear choice. They have the best tech and user experience on the market today.

Just used for the first time. Sheesh, I'd hate to be in the audio tech space right now If you're doing virtual podcasting, I 12/10 recommend.

I have recorded several interviews this week and I'm so impressed. Even when my client's internet connection is weak/flaky, I end up with a great recording afterward. It's a game-changer!

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I use Riverside to record my podcast?

Wherever you want. Our web app works on either Chrome and Edge and we also have dedicated apps for iOS, android, and tablet – which open up new recording options – plus a macOS app coming very soon.

What audio and video quality does Riverside support?

Riverside records audio in 48KHz as standard. Audio quality may differ depending on your sound equipment and recording environment. As for video, you can record in up to 4K (UHD).

How come I get better quality audio and video for my podcast with Riverside?

We record everything locally, straight on the device you’re on, be it your mobile or laptop, then upload it to the cloud. That means the only thing affecting the quality of your recording is the equipment you use and the quality of your recording is maintained even under unstable or subpar internet connections.

Most alternatives record you straight to the cloud, making the final quality dependent on the internet connection you were using. These alternatives usually compress files to reduce their size, too which further compromises their quality. We capture and upload your recording tracks at raw, highest quality footage.

Won’t local recording take up space on my computer or phone?

No no. We record you locally but immediately upload new data captured to the cloud as you’re recording. That means it’s only stored temporarily on your device. It also means minimal lag between the time you finish recording and having all your files up in the cloud.

Why is having separate tracks a game-changer for my podcast?

Having separate audio and video tracks for each participant basically means that you have raw footage to edit and use however you want. Recording everything as one track, like Zoom does, equals more compromises, e.g., parts of the audio where people speak over each other. As for video, it would either mean having a split screen all throughout or only having the shot of the person speaking each time.

How will I get my podcast recordings from my guests? Will they need to send them to me?

Your guest recordings are uploaded to your account, just like your local recording. When you're done, you'll find all recordings in your dashboard. No need to wait for anyone to send anything.

Does using the editor cost more?

No. The editor is included in all our plans.

What podcast-specific editing features does Riverside offer?

Lots. To name a few, there’s text-based editing and color-coded timeline by speaker that keep your focus on the conversation and the people having it. There’s also Magic Episode for minimal editing and faster publishing. And then there’s Magic Clips, which picks out the best moments in your episode and turns them into social clips. These are ideal for social media and can really help you grow your audience.

And why does any of this matter?

Because poor audio and video quality is what keeps podcasters like you up at night.

How many guests can I have in the studio at once?

Your riverside studio can record up to 8 guests as a time. That means 16 different tracks if you account for audio and video separately. However, you can also share an audience link for people to join as unrecorded spectators during the live recording.

Will my guests need to open a Riverside account?

Can Riverside’s editor let me brand my marketing videos the way we want them?

Virtual backgrounds let you pick the look of it all. And, a personal favorite, you can customize your captions with a wide variety of fonts, colors, sizes, and design effects to make them on brand.

What if I want to use a different editor?

Go ahead! To save you time and irritating downloads and uploads, we have direct exporting to Premiere and Final Cut Pro. All you have to do is click a button.

How can Riverside help with repurposing my video content for different platforms?

First of all, because your have separate video and audio tracks of each participant in the recording, you and your editors can really have your way with how you want to use and reuse your footage. But, if you want a quick, no-brainer turnaround there’s also the Magic Clips feature. This will pick out the best moments in the recording and make them into short clips which you can share on social, as quick snippets on your website, and whatnot.

I would like to join along with my team. Would it be easy for us to collaborate?

Very easy. And not only because all your recordings, files, and tracks are in the cloud where everyone has access to them. With our business plans, team members can act as producers for one another, giving them absolute control over the recording without actually being recorded. There’s also a special editor role for team members who just need access to the final recordings. Finally, you can create different production environments for different projects and needs, making everything easy to find.
