Descript makes my life easier. I record a lot and with Descript I just drag in my output and use my mouse to go from raw file to final output. Pretty great for the non technical.
Great concept; however, doesn't allow you to create a sample without charging. It claims you have three projects, but in reality, you don't get to try this out without being charged which is very, very frustrating. I would like to try before I buy- that's only reasonable. There's no customer support.
Descript transcript and caption are perfect. However ‘overdub’ massive bugs, voice clone quality is weak- voice too fast. Overdubbing long scripts crashes the app. Bulk gap editing is buggy. Adding ‘studio sound’ buggy too. Worse support takes several days to get a reckon overdub issues, and takes several iterations before they understand anything. They resort to a video even for tge simplest issues with overdub - seems they don’t really know much about overdub. Documentation is out of sync, outdated. Frustrating to use.
Previously, I had used the Adobe suite for video/audio editing. Switching to Descript was the best decision I've ever made for productivity gains. Descript's app is powerful yet extremely intuitive all at once. While full-time content creators may still require the Adobe suite for more advanced effects/editing, Descript does 99.9% of things businesses need to produce short-form content for social or long-form YouTube Videos/Podcasts in a far smarter & faster way.
