Podcast Audio Editing
Clean, level-matched, mastered podcast audio — the version listeners never notice.
Good podcast audio is invisible. Nobody finishes an episode thinking about the mix; they just do not reach for the volume slider, and they do not switch off three minutes in because one voice is twice as loud as the other.
We take raw multitrack recordings and return a mastered episode: noise gone, room gone, everyone at the same level, music sitting under speech instead of on top of it.
Every episode is delivered at the loudness standard your platform expects, so it sounds right next to the show that plays after yours.
What’s included
Noise and hum removal
Air conditioning, computer fans, mains hum and street noise.
De-reverb
Reduces the hollow sound of a room that was never meant for recording.

Loudness mastering
-16 LUFS stereo for podcast platforms, adjusted on request.
Filler and mistake removal
Ums, false starts and long gaps taken out without making speech sound clipped.
Hear the difference
Listen to the gaps between sentences. That is where most of this work happens — and it is the part nobody notices until it is missing.
Straight off the recorder — room, hum and uneven levels.
Demonstration audio. Send us a real episode and we will treat a minute of it, free.
Podcast Audio Editing — common questions
Can you save a recording made in a bad room?
Usually a great deal of it. De-reverb and noise reduction have improved enormously. What cannot be fixed is a recording that clipped on the way in — that distortion is baked into the file.
What loudness do you deliver at?
-16 LUFS stereo, which is what Apple Podcasts and Spotify expect. Tell us if you need something different and we will match it.
Do you remove every "um"?
Not every one. Stripping all of them makes people sound robotic. We take out the ones that trip the listener up and leave the ones that sound like speech.
