Postprod overhaul, control panel theme, caller names, website updates
- Fix denoise mangling host audio: strip aggressive afftdn/anlmdn, keep HPF only - Add stem limiting for ads/SFX to prevent clipping - Spoken-word compression on host (threshold -28dB, ratio 4:1) - Add bus compressor on final stereo mix (LRA 7.9 → 5.7 LU) - Drop SFX mix level from -6dB to -10dB - De-esser fix: replace split-band with simple high-shelf EQ - Pipeline now 15 steps (was 13) - Control panel theme: match website warm brown/orange palette - Expand caller names to 160 (80M/80F), fix duplicate name bug - Update how-it-works page: returning callers, 15-step pipeline, remove busy diagram row Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>

<h3>A Person Is Born</h3>
|
||||
<p>Every caller starts as a blank slate. The system generates a complete identity: name, age, job, hometown, and personality. Each caller gets a unique speaking style — some ramble, some are blunt, some deflect with humor. They have relationships, vehicles, strong food opinions, nostalgic memories, and reasons for being up this late. They know what they were watching on TV, what errand they ran today, and what song was on the radio before they called.</p>
|
||||
<p>Some callers become regulars. The system tracks returning callers across episodes — they remember past conversations, reference things they talked about before, and their stories evolve over time. You'll hear Carla update you on her divorce, or Carl check in about his gambling recovery. They're not reset between shows.</p>

<h3>Post-Production Pipeline</h3>
|
||||
<p>Once the show ends, an automated six-stage pipeline processes the raw stems into a broadcast-ready episode. Dead air and long silences are removed with crossfaded cuts. Voice tracks get dynamic range compression. Music automatically ducks under dialog. All five stems are mixed into stereo and loudness-normalized to broadcast standards. The whole process runs without manual intervention.</p>
|
||||
<p>Once the show ends, a 15-step automated pipeline processes the raw stems into a broadcast-ready episode. Ads and sound effects are hard-limited to prevent clipping. The host mic gets a high-pass filter, de-essing, and breath reduction. Voice tracks are compressed — the host gets aggressive spoken-word compression for consistent levels, callers get telephone EQ to sound like real phone calls. All stems are level-matched, music is ducked under dialog and muted during ads, then everything is mixed to stereo with panning and width. A bus compressor glues the final mix together before silence trimming, fades, and EBU R128 loudness normalization.</p>
