# How to Clean Podcast Audio with Claude

Claude polishes podcast recordings through iterative terminal sessions. Upload each speaker's track, run the isolation, and compare before-and-after quality through conversation. Claude can process all tracks for an episode in one session, producing consistent audio quality regardless of each speaker's recording environment.

## Setup

claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp

## Steps

1. Connect ToolRouter: claude mcp add toolrouter -- npx -y toolrouter-mcp
2. Ask Claude: "Clean up this podcast recording using audio-isolator" and provide the file
3. Claude isolates the voices and removes environmental noise
4. Compare a section of the original and cleaned versions
5. Download the polished audio for your episode

## Example Prompt

```
Clean up this podcast recording. There is room echo, some keyboard clicks, and a noisy AC unit. Isolate the voices and make it sound professional.
```

## Tips

- Process each speaker's track separately for best results in remote recordings
- Ask Claude to batch-process all tracks for an episode in one session
- The cleaner output also makes editing easier -- silence detection and cuts are more precise
