Why Multi-speaker Podcast

Multicam without the headache

Three reasons editors switch to Multi-speaker Podcast.

🎧

2 to 8 speakers with colors

Each speaker has a name, a Tokyo Night color (blue, pink, green, amber, purple, orange, teal, lavender) and a role: solo speaker or wide/group shot.

Detecting who is talking

The plugin analyzes the audio of each track to detect who is talking at every moment. The cuts land automatically on the right speaker.

🎥

Automatic wide shots

Set how often to cut wide and the plugin inserts cuts to the group camera automatically. No more monotonous edits.

How it works

3 steps, automatic edit

  1. 01

    Assign each audio track to a speaker

    Give each track a name, a color and a role (speaker or wide/group). The mapping stays saved for that sequence.

  2. 02

    Pick how often to cut wide

    Set the cut method and how often to cut wide. The plugin knows when to slip a group shot between two speakers.

  3. 03

    The plugin cuts between the cameras

    Audio analysis detects who is talking at every moment and places the cuts on the right video track. You get a clean multicam edit.

Under the hood

Tokyo Night palette

Each speaker gets a color from the Tokyo Night palette: blue, pink, green, amber, purple, orange, teal, lavender. The colors are applied to the clip labels on the timeline so you see at once who is talking at every moment.

The result: a timeline you can read at a glance, even with 8 speakers.

State per sequence

Cached and restored

Speaker mapping, colors and cut settings are saved per sequence. You move from one podcast project to another without setting anything up again. The state is cached locally and restored automatically when you come back to a sequence.

Multi-project: each sequence has its own mapping. No mix-ups between your podcasts.

Frequently asked questions

? How many speakers at most?

2 to 8 speakers. Each has a name, a color and a role. You can have several solo speakers and one or more wide/group shots.

? How does the plugin detect who is talking?

The plugin analyzes the audio level of each track assigned to a speaker. The track with the strongest signal at a given moment sets the active speaker, and the plugin cuts to their camera.

? Can I change the cuts afterwards?

Yes. The cuts are regular edits on the timeline. You can move, delete or adjust each one by hand after the automatic edit.

? Are the settings saved between sessions?

Yes. The full state (mapping, colors, cut settings) is cached per sequence and restored automatically next time you open it.

? Does it work with stereo audio tracks?

Yes. The plugin analyzes the overall signal of each track, mono or stereo. What matters is having a separate track per speaker.
