TLB Audio Quality Survey (Patreon)

Hey listeners! We have a question for you. In the course of editing recent episodes, I (Esther) have grown frustrated with the quality of our audio. Since the show started, we've been working with a starter USB mic, a cheap Blue Yeti, with a "bidirectional" gimmick that lets it record both of our voices. But since it's not a great setup, it leads to a lot of peaking and blow-outs which, to my ear, negatively affect the quality of our sound.

With that in mind, Hannah and I are debating upgrading to a more professional audio setup. But before we do, we wanted to get your perspectives on the issue. We ask that you be as honest as possible, we really won't take it personally! If you've noticed the same audio issues, like frequent blow-outs and crunchy sound, please let us know in the poll or in the comments below. We put a lot of effort into this show and we want that effort to be reflected in the quality of the end product. Again, I want to stress that your frankness is appreciated. We want your true and honest take as listeners. Thanks as always for your support!
