Podcast Audio Production
Spending Too Much Time Editing Your Audio Podcast?
We make things sound good.
Really, really good.
We can go into the technical jargon about spectral editing, multiband compression, and mastering standards, but you’re not here to learn a new toolset, and we don’t want you to waste your precious time doing so.
We handle the technical audio podcast production stuff, so that you have more time to focus on your content.
It’s really that simple.
Our Audio Production Packages
Essential Audio Production
Perfect for new podcasters and hobbyists, our Essential podcast package takes your show’s assets and episode recordings and produces a polished final product.
We’ll ensure that your episode flows smoothly between sections, and that your audio quality shines. We’ll arrange everything in the correct order, remove any long gaps, and take care of volume levelling, noise reduction, mixing and mastering.
Standard Audio Production
Ideal for existing podcasters and entrepreneurs looking for a more professional feel, our Standard podcast package produces streamlined podcast episodes.
On top of everything included in our Essential package above, we’ll do in-depth editing and audio restoration, so you can say goodbye to the hundreds of umms your guest used when answering what you thought was a pretty simple question, as well as their cute dog that decided it’s voice in the background was more important than its owner’s. We’ll also add some light sound design and music placement to give your episodes that extra wow-factor.
Standard editing typically results in episodes that are as much as 15% SHORTER without losing any actual content – that’s like listening to someone say “Ummm… like…” non-stop for 9 minutes in an hour.
Custom Audio Production
Ideal for established brands and narrative podcasts that have more complex arrangements and production elements, our Custom podcast package produces immersive podcast episodes.
On top of everything included in our Standard package above, we’ll add unlimited sound design and music to your episodes (perfect for shows that rely on world-building through sound effects and music). We’ll also content edit your recordings, so that your episode flows in a narrative arc that builds and keeps listener intrigue.

Essential Editing
Your episodes' recordings will be edited to start and end naturally, with any long pauses removed.
Standard Editing
Your episodes will be free from mistakes, retakes, and unnecessary crutch words ('umm's, 'aah's, 'like's).
This can make up as much as 15% of an episode - that's like listening to someone say nothing but 'umm' over and over for 7 minutes in a full episode!
Audio Restoration
You can recover recordings that may otherwise be unusable. Your episodes will be free from any distracting sounds that can't just be edited out - like Zoom dropping in and out, dogs barking in the background, or pens being clicked while people are speaking.
Light Sound Design & Music Placement
Add extra style and emotion to your podcast episodes with simple sound effects and music beds.
Unlimited Sound Design & Music
Add alluring soundscapes, effects and music to your podcast episodes.
Great for storytelling or true crime shows that aim to create an immersive listening experience.
Content Editing and Narrative Building
Ideal for NPR-style shows with multiple recordings and scripted sections, your episode and all its recordings will be organised into a narrative that creates a compelling story.
