The Post-Production Process
Here's what happens after your recording session — the editing and mastering workflow that turns raw audio into a polished, publishable audiobook.
Assembly & Cleanup
We compile all takes, select the best reads, and remove duplicate lines, false starts, and long pauses.
Breath & Noise Removal
Loud breaths, mouth clicks, paper rustles, and ambient intrusions are cleaned from the audio without affecting the voice.
Pacing & Timing
Awkward silences, rushed sections, and unnatural rhythm are adjusted to create a fluid, comfortable listening experience.
Consistency Leveling
Each chapter is level-matched so the listener doesn't need to adjust volume between files.
ACX Mastering
Final mastering to exact ACX specifications: RMS -23 to -18 dB, peak -3 dB, noise floor -60 dB, sample rate 44.1 kHz, 192 kbps MP3.
QC & File Delivery
A second engineer reviews all files before they leave our studio. Files are delivered organized by chapter, labeled, and ready to submit.
What Good Editing Actually Does
Good audiobook editing is invisible to the listener. They shouldn't notice the retakes that were removed, the breath that was softened, or the slight pause that was adjusted. They should just notice that the narration flows naturally and doesn't pull them out of the experience.
- Natural pacing that matches how people actually listen
- No audible cuts or jarring transitions between takes
- Breaths present but not intrusive — natural, not distracting
- Consistent energy level across all chapters
- Room tone used smoothly to connect takes
