Audio Glitches on Kaye's Tracks
Added 2025-06-27 16:24:16 +0000 UTCHey folks, for a little bit now people have been bringing some audio glitches to my attention. The problem is that my voice will cut out sometimes in the middle of words. I don't catch these because nothing happens during recordings, and it happens so irregularly that the glitches don't come up in our spot checks or during the edits.
I've been trying to solve this problem, thinking it was an issue with my noise gates, the processing our call recorder does to master the sound, or even how the call recorder captures my audio. It turns out it's some kind of issue with my computer itself and how audio is processed during recording, before it's sent to either my local backup recording on Logic, and before it's sent through the call recorder in my browser.
I'm writing this to let you know that I'm aware of the issue and I apologize if it's interfered with our episodes' enjoyment or legibility. Now that I've located where the issue is happening, I will be doing my best to fix it, but I ask for your patience if we can't fix it right away. Such is the nature of problems that happen irregularly and imperceptibly during multi-hour-long recording sessions.
With sincerest regrets,
Kaye

Hi Kaye. Don't know how else to contact you, but I thought I'd give you a heads up that on the subpages of duckfeed.tv (for example thelevelpodcast.com) you're still listed under your old name and presented with an old photo.

2025-06-27 18:01:56 +0000 UTCOh, I know exactly what you're talking about and I assumed it was my phone; it was only today that I rewound and found a little skip in the same spot! Anyway, it's not a big deal - just minor audio quirks.

2025-06-27 16:52:34 +0000 UTCNot for nothing, I haven't noticed this at all on any of your shows. Then again, I'm on godforsaken teams all day so maybe my brain just skips the skip.
