Client feedback
Remote records that run smoothly.
Remote recording only works when the technology disappears into the background. The guest needs to feel comfortable. The host needs to stay focused. The final recording needs to sound and look professional.
“The Podcast Studio Glasgow has provided us with an excellent, high-quality service. Our remote records always run smoothly, the audio quality is impeccable, and Mark and Cam are always on site to assist with any issues. Would thoroughly recommend!”
— Mike Muncer, Producer & Co-Host of Carry on up the PodcastWhy it matters
Remote podcast recording matters now more than ever.
For years, podcasters have relied upon the ability to bring in guests remotely, especially when being in the same room together is not possible. This applies especially when your guests are not in the same country as you. It can also be due to time constraints, where it simply makes more sense to bring in your podcast guest remotely.
While there are many online solutions to these problems, the results are mixed at best.
Guest kit varies wildly
Your guest’s microphone and camera may not be up to scratch. While that is often outwith your control, it means they may not sound and look as good as you do.
Zoom compresses everything
If you use a service like Zoom to record your podcast, the audio and video for both you and your guest are heavily compressed. Low-quality audio, visible artefacts and unstable video are not ideal.
Professional capture
Either you or your guests can be in another part of the city, country or world and you will all sound and look as good as possible.

Why Riverside
We do not use Zoom to record remote podcasts.
We never use Zoom or other free-to-use video call services to record our remote podcasts. We use Riverside, a service designed to help create better-looking and better-sounding remote podcasts.
The end result is strongest when the host is in the studio. There, you can use our professional-grade audio and video equipment, while your guest joins the discussion remotely using Riverside.
We also use advanced audio tools to improve the quality of audio captured from remote podcast guests, with results that can be dramatically better than a standard video-call recording.
- Host records in the studio with professional microphones, cameras and lighting
- Remote guest joins from anywhere in the world
- Separate audio and video tracks make editing cleaner
- Better quality than compressed video-call recordings
- Ideal for interviews, expert guests, international contributors and panel conversations
StreamYard, Zoom and free tools
Can Podcast Studio Glasgow do better?
The short answer, factoring in the details outlined above, is yes.
StreamYard works in a very different way from Riverside. With many streaming or video-call platforms, compression affects the audio and video before you ever reach the edit. That can leave everyone on the stream looking and sounding sub-par.
Our set-up is a million miles better because it is designed for podcast recording, not just video calling. You get the advantage of a professional studio at one end, a proper remote capture workflow, and production support from people who record podcasts every week.
Better for the host
You record in a controlled studio environment with professional audio, cameras, lighting and technical support. You can focus on the conversation rather than the tech.
Better for the guest
Your guest can join from wherever they are, without needing to travel to Glasgow, while still being captured in a workflow designed for high-quality remote podcast production.
Use cases
Perfect for interviews, experts and international guests.
Interview podcasts
Bring in guests from anywhere without compromising the quality of the host’s audio and video.
Business podcasts
Record with clients, partners, internal teams or expert contributors who cannot make it to Glasgow.
Panel conversations
Combine in-studio contributors with remote guests for flexible, professional multi-person recordings.
International guests
Your guest can be in another country while you record in a controlled studio environment in Glasgow.
Video clips
Capture material that can be edited into short video clips for LinkedIn, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts and your website.
One-off specials
Ideal for special episodes, guest interviews, campaign content, expert commentary or timely conversations.
Frequently asked questions
Before you book a remote session.
Can I be in the studio while my guest is remote?
Yes. This is one of the best ways to use our remote recording setup. You get professional studio audio and video, while your guest joins remotely from wherever they are.
Can everyone be remote?
Yes. We can support fully remote podcast recordings where nobody is physically in the studio. Speak to us about your setup and what you need delivered.
Is it better than Zoom?
Yes. Zoom is built for meetings. Our remote podcast recording workflow is designed for better audio, better video and cleaner files for editing.
What if my guest is not technical?
That is normal. We help manage the recording process so the guest can focus on the conversation rather than the technology.
