Hi there! It's Peter again and I'm back with another update. New to Alitu are... Folders 🎉

You asked, we listened, and now it's here! Staying organised is often the most overlooked aspect of podcasting. But as your podcast grows, it becomes more and more important. Today we will show you...

​

How to organise your files into Folders

You can easily group your existing audio into folders by selecting them and clicking: Move to folder > New folder. Here's how:

And how to stay organised

Keeping tidy going forward becomes easy too as you can upload files directly into designated folders. See it in action:

Additional updates:

• 🏁 Improvement: we've greatly decreased the loading times in My Library. That means your files load faster even if you have a lot of them. Less waiting, more podcasting.
• 👉 Bug fix: we've fixed a bug where files you selected on the previous page of your Library would sometimes get unselected.

Alitu will now show you a little dot inside the transition button. The dot lets you know there's a transition between your audio clips. Useful to ensure all your transitions are in the right place, before you hit 'Build.'

Try it for yourself and let us know your thoughts 😊

Alitu can now remember the transition settings you used last time, so you don't have to set them again!

When you create a new episode, it'll include your default episode intro & outro PLUS the transitions and fade that you set on them last time.

So now, there are even fewer clicks required to go from hitting 'new episode' to getting in published.

See how it works in action:

We hope this will help you save time while making your episodes and would love to hear what you think.

Hey there,

We are making it easier to add a bit of organisation to your "My library".

You can now bookmark or pin your favourites and they will appear at the top of your library everytime.

Really handy if you use use the same files for creating your podcast episodes.
​
Thanks!

Hi there,

We are redesigning the Library to help you find the right file faster. It's easier than ever to rename your clip, change the audio type (advert, music...) and delete what's not needed. Regardless of where you are in the app

No need to go back and forth between your episode and the Library. You can now rename & delete files straight from the Episode Builder. Staying organised has never been this easy. Give it a go next time and let us know what you think!

Hi there,

Putting together your podcast description has always been a bit of a chore among podcasters. You've recorded everything, edited your audio and assembled it all together. You're dead keen to get it out to your listeners, yet the description box is dauntingly blank. Not anymore!

Alitu can now generate a great podcast description or episode title for you at the click of a button!

When you are at the publish stage, you just need to select the "write using AI" button and shownotes and titles options will appear.
​
You dont need to use these, you can always just use your own.

Hi there,

The call recorder has had a facelift and some new features have been added to make it even easier to make scheduling, hosting and managing your calls simpler.

🎤 Start Recording when everyone is ready

You now have more control over the start and end of your recording. You can start recording immediately (for great behind the scenes content) or only hit the button after you have a 'welcome' chat with your guests

👀 Everything where you'd expect it to be

We made sure that all the buttons you use most often (like mute and unmute) are always on hand. And the new call screen aims to keep you informed rather than overwhelmed.

🗨️ In call- chat function

Whether you use it to send a link to interview notes or send funny comments during the call, chat is always useful. And in this update the experience got a little bit better. Send links, use emojis, all in a new, cleaner interface

🏵️ Easier access to settings (before and after the call)

Swapping to different microphone or headphones got easier too. You can now help your guests pick the right mic during your call – and before you start recording. Swap between external headphones or mics with ease and make sure the mic is picking you up well.

👥Your studio is now branded with your name

if you're named Alitu, like us, your guests will now see 'Alitu's studio' everywhere as soon as they arrive. All this to make the entire experience a bit more inviting. A warmer welcome!

Hi there,

Help, I'm seeing double! Duplicate any episode

With this new update, we are bringing you a way to quickly duplicate any of your episodes. Just click this button 👇

Enter a new name and an exact copy will appear in your My Episodes page! All your intro music, transitions and fades will still be there

Create a Template
If your show follows a standard format, the new duplication feature is for you. It allows you to re-use and build on existing episodes. Let's say some of your episodes follow a 'Ask Mike' format. In those episodes you have a special jingle set up and custom tr ansitions throughout.

You can now create a template-style episode for this format and duplicate it for every 'Ask Mike' episode. This can save you a lot of time as all you have to do is add your recordings and hit 'Build episode'.

That way, you could have your next episode ready in minutes! Try it out! We hope this will speed up your workflow and would love to hear your thoughts!
