Can You Force 'Original Sound' for all participants on a Podcast Recording?

I have enabled original sound on my desktop client for my podcast recordings. However, does that force original sound for my guest as well? I can't find the answer in any of the FAQs or the Community.

 

The thing I've found is that most guests haven't got a clue about audio settings and if I send them instructions on enabling Original Sound it's just going to confuse them even more. They barely read my clear instructions to use Wired Headphones, so the Original Sound instructions will probably be ignored too.

Hi @sspzoom 

No, original sound is only for your audio. Their audio would be controlled by their settings on their end.

Bort,

 

This is a mistake to exclude this ability.literally anyone using zoom for music lessons need you to do something that prevents them from having to explain how to open settings (which is different for every OS) then how to find audio (even that navigation is rather poorly designed) then how to change the audio, while everyone else is rolling their eyes. Leave you idiotic meeting defaults as is, but why not allow the host to select the *meeting’s* audio mode. If the host can mute all, why can’t the host fix the audio to a specific setting rather that wasting everyone’s time doing so?????????!??!
