What it is
Adobe Podcast is a set of web tools for spoken audio. Enhance Speech takes an uploaded recording and cleans up the voice so it sounds as if it were made on a better microphone, with controls to balance speech, music and background ambience. Studio, still in beta, records and edits in the browser, lets you download the original recording of each speaker separately, and makes audiograms with captions.
Free use comes with daily and per-file limits on Enhance Speech and handles audio only. Premium raises the cap to 4 hours a day and files up to 1 GB, and adds video files such as MP4 and MOV and bulk uploads. Adobe now offers Premium through its Adobe Firefly Pro plan rather than as a separate low-cost tier, so check the plans page before you subscribe.
