We’re considering developing an open-source desktop app (Linux, Windows, Mac) for podcast creation.
It will feature a customizable workflow where every tool is a plugin, including:
Noise reduction
Mouth noise editing
Simple multi-channel audio editing
Music insertion
Automatic local transcription, manual correction
Chapter editing
Metadata editing (ID3, RSS) with LLM
Local publishing
Publish to host (including Castopod support, but not only)
@Castopod Descript completely changed audio and video editing for me. I can't imagine using anything else for talk-centric content.
It acquired SquadCast for perfect remote recordings.
Both are web apps wrapped in a browser to be native apps. I would love an open source version of it.
@Jeremiah @Castopod A Descript-esque editing experience (text-based editing) would be amazing!
I know @kdenlive is capable of doing so using their STT VOSK/Whisper integration, so it might be a starting point: https://youtu.be/3Qg6TS_FfXw
