Cleanfeed Reviews

Summary: Overall I would say this is one of the best products on the market and would highly recommend to anyone who’s not sure… It’s brilliant!

Positive: This software is one of the best I have ever used. Crisp, clear sound with no interference or interruptions. Perfect for interviews and podcasts. I highly recommend!

Negative: To be honest I haven’t encountered any part that I am unhappy with.

Summary: Absolutely delighted with Cleanfeed from starting as a free user and getting comfortable with how it works to migrating to a pro licence and being blown away by how simple and straightforward it is - yet excellent studio quality sound and recordings.

Positive: No software or downloads required - runs on a wide range of browsers, easily shared with clients who can use almost any device from laptop microphone to full studio setup, ability to split and record each remote input individually, insanely low latency, adjustable settings for quality etc, simple and easy interface

Negative: Nothing.

Summary: Gave up on it after it let me down countless times. 2/10 as it had gradually became more unusable. Trial it countless times before paying for it.

Positive: Guests can join via smartphone, laptop, PC or table.
Vey good sound quality.
Easy to use during recordings.
Clear interface.

Negative: The echo. There is no echo cancelation and it's the deal breaker. You juts never know when it is going to pop up. It's a terrible issue because you spend valuable time trying to correct it and it's hugely embarrassing when you have guests. They have a so-called help sheet on their website but all it seems to indicate is that they cannot help you. they suggest options to try but when none work, you're on your own. Instead of trying to blame you, maybe the creators of Cleanfeed should just install echo cancellation.
It is also unreliable with connections. Some guests I have had were not able to connect. they joined the feed but either couldn't hear me or I couldn't hear them.

Summary: Really poor, unreliable, and not a good partner. I am surprised Cleanfeed is marketed as a vendor of choice for larger brands. It underperforms.

Positive: I really cannot say anything good about Cleanfeed. All my hopes were not realized. The hope was based on the reputation for quality audio capture, however, even that was lacking.

Negative: I was hopeful having moved over from a competitor, however, Cleanfeed cost me an entire interview: one track had me as the host and my guest audio is captured for the first 5 minutes on their track, then it drops to no data. The echo that is mentioned multiple times by others is a nightmare in post. And the interface itself is clunky and poorly designed. When I was recording the aforementioned session, each track read throughout the interview as receiving and recording; however, getting the tracks into post proved otherwise. Their master "Clips" file, as well, does not save you should there be a failure in the individual tracks.

Summary: Frustrating as I was really hopeful but having arranged with a few people and using up their valuable time trying to set it up, it just didn't work without a huge echo.

Positive: Easy to use on both sides as you only need to send a link to the other person. Also it looks really simple (good).

Negative: Could not work out how to remove echo, even with everyone using headphones and mics.
