Hecz, I've been producing and mixing music for 8 years now. I'll gladly edit the audio files for you guys, so that you can keep up with the podcast. I'll do it for free, the entertainment you guys provide is more than good enough "payment". Please vote this one up so the 36 year old phenom can see this!
I agree that the series should keep going but audio is very important. They should have it ironed out by now. It's 18 episodes in already. If it stops it stops ...
The video is about the audio though. And if it's obnoxious to listen to I'm not gonna wanna listen to it. I love their stories and shit but if I can't hear someone and at the same time someone is obnoxiously loud due to audio issues, it makes me not want to watch. They really need to stop being complacent.
This channel would still be dead if it wasn't for Hitch. Learn to appreciate the effort put into this content. Its the consumer mindset. You won't learn how to appreciate effort until you make something yourself.
Hitch is in the position he's in because of Hecz. Hitch is an editor. He's paid to do this and it could have easily been someone else, hitch isn't the only editor there is. So no, although Hitch does great editing, he did not revive this channel from the dead. He simply edits and posts the content that is provided to him.
So many things wrong with this comment. Like how hard is pushing a red button waiting there for an hour or so then transfer that footage cut it up and put it out. I dont get where hitches job is super hard. Anyone that has done any basic multimedia production would know how easy hitches job really is. Its even worse because all the fanboys on here fill his head with nonsense by telling him hes good at it when clearly that isnt the case. Will not listen to this podcast until the extreme audio issues get fixed. Its unbearable
ReesesNchips One word to destroy your whole argument. Vision. You say Hitch's job isn't hard? Try to handle vision only with the help of Create. Not to mention that this podcast's audio problems aren't even Hitch's fault. Anyone who actually keeps up with OpTic knows Hitch isn't in charge of audio.
55thebassman55 So because I don't know the inter workings of a competitive gaming teams multimedia department you think that somehow discredits every other point I made?
it's bearable if you turn it really loud or are wearing headphones I suppose, it's a shame because love Castro and would have loved it to be a seamless episode, but this is better than nothing
I want to say thank you for fixing the audio, I can actually hear Castro now haha! No matter if the audio is great or bad as long as I can understand what y'all are saying, I'm good to go.
Yo Hecz I love you, but two things: 1. Don't EVER compare Harry Potter to Twilight 2. The books ARE better than the movies, even though the HP movies were great in their own right. Just saying.
+Adelice Mendez All I said was the idea is terrible just like Romeo and Juliet, so cheesy I couldn't think straight. I never said the writer was garbage just said anyone could of thought of that, especially twilight Jesus Christ
Pause at 19:08 BigT and MBoZe literally have the same facial expression and are holding their hands the same exact way and are slouched in the same position on the couch. LMAO
Considering the point in a Podcast is the Audio this shit needs to be fixed.. 18 episodes and its still constant problems. Damn if you cant fix the issue just don't waste your time recording, just cancel the series.
Just get an audio guy to come out and fix the problem, then continue the series. I don't understand why everything seems so difficult and time consuming for the OpTic guys. Best series on this channel by far! 😊
"Apologies for the Audio, tried my best to fix it - H" It's funny how they are a multi million dollar org. but yet have had audio issues every single podcast.
i honestly dont hear anything wrong with the audio. hilarious podcast, Pamaj's crashing into mixwell part cracked me up. great job guys. keep em coming
Do they do audio checks before filming? Like a test? It would make sense to me, if you CONSTANTLY have audio issues? What about live monitoring? Have hitch listen in while recording?
Hector, it sounds like you're Sidechaining the different inputs, so when you speak and castro speaks, it cuts out his voice. Instead, use something called a Gate. it will bring the mic back in through a certain db threshold, so whenever Will speaks or Boze speaks, it's like the mic will automatically activate and amplify his voice. Gates will also cut out Will's voice out of Marc's mic.
The audio can be so much better. I would definitely love to help OpTic out with the Audio issues with the Mics and make a nice podcast area in the OpTic Scuf House. I would love to work with Hitch as well so we can improve and create great videos :)
i don't know if you already do this, but if everybody mic is recording separately to make four different files (and i could be wrong about this) you should be able to put them all in a timeline, make sure the audio levels are the same, and you should be able to hear everybody. it might pick up background noise but i don't know. just an idea for you to take into consideration. hopefully you can figure it out soon.
Hey Hector/OpTic! I work in audio, and your issue is definitely clipping (I'm sure you knew this). If this wasn't caused by the source audio being too loud (if the knobs on your interface weren't turned too high during the actual recording of the podcast), then you can easily remedy the issue by running the audio through a limiter. I'd be happy to help clear up any sort of issues!
Every time I am down on my channel I come and listen to this podcast for motivation. You are what gives me what I need to keep on moving forward. 5 years and I am still making videos, one day I will be up there sipping on a pina colada with hecz! Never give up on your dreams, I know I won't :). Love and peace for everyone
They have one problem, and they're now a garbage business? OpTic Nation wasn't even uploading before all this. So if Nike had their website down for an hour, are they now considered a terrible company?
No, but it's expected of a brand/business of this size to have basic things such as audio working fine on a video, bearing in mind UA-cam content is part of their revenue
I don't get it. Someone fails with recording the audio and everyone shittalks Hitch. Hitch can only use the data which they give him. If the Audio is shit, Hitch can not do magic and somehow create a new audiofile. If the mic wasn't set up correctly (In this case too much gain), you can not do anything in the post-production. Hitch does a good job, his Vlogs are the best of all OpTic members in terms of editing and quality, Vision is fuckn dope from week to week and he does this shit regularly, daily, weekly. I want to see someone of you who can do better and not only talk shit on the internet.
You guys should upload all the podcast onto spotify so I can listen to these at my desk while I study I know some of them are on soundcloud but spotify is just better to me.
Hector. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to save this episode from being deleted. We appreciate it. Of course, there's haters, but they simply don't understand. They can't see past their own insatiable expectations. Hitch. I hope you're laughing at all the idiots that are blaming you for the audio even though you had NOTHING to do with it. Just know these same fools are gonna be slobbing on your knob the SECOND Worlds 2 drops.
How is it their podcast has the worst audio quality I've ever heard but every single member of optic have better audio in their own videos... For gods sake they're sitting on a couch.
You tell us a story of how you tell your daughter your always right and that she is starting to believe that you are always right and everyday you release a new vlog where you proceed to always tell everyone who watches that you are always right ... Mass social media conformity to psychologically consort the youths mind for your monetary advertising is genius
I really appreciate the effort Hecz. I love that you even tried. All the haters here piss me off and just keep expecting perfection from you guys. I love OpTic and support everything that you guys are doing.
Hecz, I've been producing and mixing music for 8 years now. I'll gladly edit the audio files for you guys, so that you can keep up with the podcast. I'll do it for free, the entertainment you guys provide is more than good enough "payment". Please vote this one up so the 36 year old phenom can see this!
I dont care about the audio just want the series to keep going
agree
+Aidan wood lol
I agree that the series should keep going but audio is very important. They should have it ironed out by now. It's 18 episodes in already.
If it stops it stops ...
True you're the true MVP

+55thebassman55 you do know hitch gets drunk every night and streams and plays cod? Then edits some videos here n there just stop saying it's so hard
55thebassman55 So because I don't know the inter workings of a competitive gaming teams multimedia department you think that somehow discredits every other point I made?
Gotta stop reading the comments, straight cancer
same I'm getting so pissed! lol
Honestly
same so mad hope they disable them
Some Optic fans are so damn toxic, probably because most of them are children.
+The Chosen One incredibly true
how does hitch get hired to do all this stuff and messes it up. and now he plays in smooths so they have terrible angles
Hitch doesn't set the audio up thats all hecz so definitely not hitches fault
But i do agree with you about the angles on smooth competition
wth, stop being a bitch lol
Luddinho98 dude he is living a dream, he is being the bitch
Erik You have no reason whatsoever complaining
I saw hecz yesterday while working at target, I had to do a double take before I noticed it was actually him
He's like 5 11 fat Mexican. I saw him at MLG Orlando
dude i work at target in illinois but its like 20 mins from where they live :(
+Ssandcrab82 UA-cam no duh he's a fat 5-11 Mexican we can see that for ourselves
+Jake Davis fuckboi
I didn't mind the audio before... But now it's honestly a lot worst being cut up like this
Jacob Marshall, You're going to be SWATTED now. Bad move. I told you to fuck off once, you didn't comply. Now you're fucked.Jacob Marshall
+Jacob Marshall lol bro I was just saying. I don't mind. I still watched the entire video. But UA-camrs need feedback so I was just saying my opinion.
Thank you Greenwall and Hitch for the upload
the audio is fine
Do you have superhuman hearing?
fishdalf it aint that bad honestly
it's bearable if you turn it really loud or are wearing headphones I suppose, it's a shame because love Castro and would have loved it to be a seamless episode, but this is better than nothing
Ya I hear everything fine
+Steven Gonzalez if you read the description he even says that he apologizes for the audio so...
I want to say thank you for fixing the audio, I can actually hear Castro now haha! No matter if the audio is great or bad as long as I can understand what y'all are saying, I'm good to go.
Yo Hecz I love you, but two things:
1. Don't EVER compare Harry Potter to Twilight
2. The books ARE better than the movies, even though the HP movies were great in their own right.
Just saying.
thank you for saying it. His ass hasn't even read the books and I would bet on that.
Lmao wtf 😂 they're both trash, both fairytales that a little kid from elementary school can think of
+RauhlDoesWork - CoD so...where's you're multi-billion dollar book series?
+Adelice Mendez All I said was the idea is terrible just like Romeo and Juliet, so cheesy I couldn't think straight. I never said the writer was garbage just said anyone could of thought of that, especially twilight Jesus Christ
+RauhlDoesWork - CoD lmao bro you got rekttt

Are you dumb? No where in that comment did i say that anything offended me. I'm done with you, goodbye now.
Its call content quality, for the amount of money that they all make and still having audio issues like its freshman year.
+C H R O N I C B O Y S 2 0 0 1 true
happy they sorted out the audio issue for castro
Lmao it's not fixed
+Jab I could hear castro fine...
+Jab it's much better, are you dense? if you can do better go ahead and hit up hecz for a job. get out of here lol
+NufcHarrison97 same
+Chris Mayland well said
Idc care about the audio I love these podcast
Don't stop doing these, personally my favourite thing on the channel
Just get an audio guy to come out and fix the problem, then continue the series. I don't understand why everything seems so difficult and time consuming for the OpTic guys. Best series on this channel by far! 😊
appreciate you trying to fix all this hecz, please don't quit the series i love it too much
"Apologies for the Audio, tried my best to fix it - H"
It's funny how they are a multi million dollar org. but yet have had audio issues every single podcast.
The truth hurts doesn't it.
wait why are you watching then
and if it's so easy why don't you have a podcast
+Chris B. CREAM so you're implying it's not easy which is contradicting yourself your fucking idiot
+Ethan Davis you're the stupid one here
NOTHING WRONG WITH THE PODCAST DONT STOP THESE, THEY ARE THE BEST
i honestly dont hear anything wrong with the audio. hilarious podcast, Pamaj's crashing into mixwell part cracked me up. great job guys. keep em coming
I don't see what's so fucking bad about the audio
I just love getting a laugh out of these dudes and their stories
Don't listen to the haters. Once you guys figure out the audio problems this podcast series is gonna be smooth.
Do they do audio checks before filming? Like a test? It would make sense to me, if you CONSTANTLY have audio issues? What about live monitoring? Have hitch listen in while recording?
pls dont delete great job idc you can fix any problems
later*
Guys, FFS this is ONE episode. If you don't like it because of the audio go watch every other PERFECT episode
You know your gonna have a good day when optic podcast is in your subox
Thanks HECZWE and Hitch for creating this podcast I look forward to seeing it in my subscription box keep up the good work
Hector, it sounds like you're Sidechaining the different inputs, so when you speak and castro speaks, it cuts out his voice. Instead, use something called a Gate. it will bring the mic back in through a certain db threshold, so whenever Will speaks or Boze speaks, it's like the mic will automatically activate and amplify his voice. Gates will also cut out Will's voice out of Marc's mic.
Does anyone know the name of the song for the outro
make the podcasts on itunes or downloadable??
The audio can be so much better. I would definitely love to help OpTic out with the Audio issues with the Mics and make a nice podcast area in the OpTic Scuf House. I would love to work with Hitch as well so we can improve and create great videos :)

Boze just don't wanna do the go karts bc he's scared he won't fit, please bro go to the damn gym.
Why worry about boze. It's not your life so just do you
Bc its not healthy at all for him.
+Muaaz ^
if you insult him while saying you want him to get healthy, you definitely don't care about him
Lol he's a fat fuck plan and simple
This is awesome Hecz and hitch please keep making these podcasts
"I watch your video's, put your pants down" WTF XD XD
Everyone hating on hitch. When he edits Vision. The Best ESports Content on UA-cam. Hitch is the GOAT
Hey Hector/OpTic! I work in audio, and your issue is definitely clipping (I'm sure you knew this). If this wasn't caused by the source audio being too loud (if the knobs on your interface weren't turned too high during the actual recording of the podcast), then you can easily remedy the issue by running the audio through a limiter. I'd be happy to help clear up any sort of issues!
is the solution streaming on twitch?
All the comments are complaining about lack of podcasts but we're are the comments about how good and funny this was
optic_castro I'm down
No
+Desi Riley piss off
+xnicegeorge2 triggered
+lawfulneptune14 hater
despite the issues i really hope you continue to do the podcast
Fixed the audio levels thank you H
Every time I am down on my channel I come and listen to this podcast for motivation. You are what gives me what I need to keep on moving forward. 5 years and I am still making videos, one day I will be up there sipping on a pina colada with hecz! Never give up on your dreams, I know I won't :). Love and peace for everyone
Why is turtle wax still in the description
Did they drop them
+Lotty no, they only had a 3 month contract with them
+Main Event Aren't they still with turtle wax? I think you mean astro... I don't remember any other sponsor change other than astro.. I could be wrong
RauhlDoesWork - CoD nah, it was turtle wax
+RauhlDoesWork - CoD it was astro and turtle wax. optic signed a 3 month contract with turtle wax
Thank you Hector for fixing the podcast!
Hecz is the goat for sorting the audio out
Good job on fixing the audio Hecz! still some issues but it's a lot better than before.
When tf will this be on iTunes ....
Why does Will always have that "it's 7pm and I'm ready for bed" look haha
Oh it's back so glad, I missed it when it first came out
Thank you for not quitting the podcast!
How do I tryout for optic
I figured since it was re-uploaded the audio would of been better
Worth the wait, good job for fixing it boys
How tall is Hecz?
So many people complaining about the quality, yet they're sitting there watching 😂
Where's DTreats
Thought optic was à big brand/company, cant even fix an audio issue smh,
You thought wrong lol
You think because they cant fix a simple audio issue, that they arent considered a Big brand/Company? You have to be kidding me fam.
They have one problem, and they're now a garbage business? OpTic Nation wasn't even uploading before all this. So if Nike had their website down for an hour, are they now considered a terrible company?
No, but it's expected of a brand/business of this size to have basic things such as audio working fine on a video, bearing in mind UA-cam content is part of their revenue
You try fixing it you fucking loser
We're all really sorry for the audio. Sorry
Water balloon toss completion, pair up see who can throw it and catch it from furthest away without balloon popping
I don't get it. Someone fails with recording the audio and everyone shittalks Hitch. Hitch can only use the data which they give him.

Stop complaining everyone, if you dont like the audio instead of complaining just dont watch. Love these podcasts.
I went to Chicago last year and played the shit out of whirlyball. greatest thing ever.. we need that everywhere
What mics???
GREAT AUDIO MATE
lol
Nahhh Boze 😂😂😂😂 I was just thinking about that chicken salad I had earlier.
do a synchronized podcast where you guys are at champs, be on the phone with each other and make it like a news report
a few thousand dollars of audio equipment, and Boze's hairline is STILL fucked up.
Why isn't the audio fixed yet?
Its running bases
HAHAHAHAHA I LAUGHED SO HARD WHEN MBOZE DID HIS "MMM"
This podcast content was amazing! I loved it great job!
You guys should upload all the podcast onto spotify so I can listen to these at my desk while I study I know some of them are on soundcloud but spotify is just better to me.
did they just repost this?
Why the reupload?
Hector. Thank you for the time and effort you put in to save this episode from being deleted. We appreciate it. Of course, there's haters, but they simply don't understand. They can't see past their own insatiable expectations. Hitch. I hope you're laughing at all the idiots that are blaming you for the audio even though you had NOTHING to do with it. Just know these same fools are gonna be slobbing on your knob the SECOND Worlds 2 drops.
A+ for effort :) I appreciate all that you guys have done for esports and I can't wait for the future. Have a good day!
Thank you for the re upload
Audio sounds decent to me I'm not complaining about it.
I had to hook my computer up to a PA system to be able to hear everyone thats not Hecz, not sure why the audio is so low.
How is it their podcast has the worst audio quality I've ever heard but every single member of optic have better audio in their own videos... For gods sake they're sitting on a couch.
Extremely different, They Have one mic to focus on, While the podcast has 4 different mics you have to mix in
Comments like this is why they don't want to upload podcast anymore, they don't have to do any of this
you do realize that you can adjust the audio levels in editing, idiot.
I thought his mustache was fake... until i searched him up on youtube LOOOOOL
The audio is bearable, quit crying about it. Thank you to Hecz and Hitch for not giving up.
WHY DOESN'T WILL GO TO ANY EVENTS
I'm a 37 yr old phenomenon too.. But smart enough to know my place is to be a fan.
if you seen his twitter, they fixed the audio. relax people. they aren't perfect. enjoy the series as it is
You tell us a story of how you tell your daughter your always right and that she is starting to believe that you are always right and everyday you release a new vlog where you proceed to always tell everyone who watches that you are always right ... Mass social media conformity to psychologically consort the youths mind for your monetary advertising is genius
Can you guys try to have hutch seananners and sark on at some point?
audio is a lot better than last time
you guys should do some hockey smooth comp
Hitch you did great with what you had in front of you. Thank you for putting out the video.
P.S. Y'all should do wallball.
Thanks for the re upload it was funny
Need to record each voice on different channels like a mixer!
apologies for the AUDIO on episode EIGHTEEN of a PODCAST. What?
Dizzy home run derby? Even implement the dizzy technique into things like the soccer penalty shootouts and things like that.
I really appreciate the effort Hecz. I love that you even tried. All the haters here piss me off and just keep expecting perfection from you guys. I love OpTic and support everything that you guys are doing.
hitch must have spent 6 hours to increase the volume every time Castro spoke
"Apologies for the Audio"
-Every Podcast...
Kick ball can also be played at baseball parks.
