Audio Editing and Enhancing
What we do
We're an audio production company based in the United States that helps you sound your very best with our audio editing and enhancing service. We've done podcast editing for some of the largest companies in the world such as Elsevier Publishing Company and Salesforce. There's nothing basic about our service. It's thorough. We encourage you to put on your headphones and listen to the work we've done. You can find cheaper audio editing, but you won't find better. In fact, our podcast editing on a series of shows helped win our customer CMI's 2016 Award for Best Podcast.

What you get with our audio Editing service
• We eliminate or reduce verbal flubs and noise such as hiss, hum, plosives (popped P's), sibilance (distorted S's), mouth and breath noise, wind, false starts, unwanted sections, repetitive words, filler words (uh and um), long pauses, thumps, rumble, crackle, pops, sirens, animal noises, phone and computer sounds. We also adjust your volume levels and equalize the tonal balance of your recording. And if you provide it to us (or purchase them from us), we mix in your intro, outro, and sponsor messages.
• It's easy to order from us. You can make an online purchase based on the length of your recording (see prices below). After you've completed your purchase, leave your browser open so we can re-direct you to our Script and Instructions form where you can drop your audio file(s) into our Dropbox and give us your instructions. When we complete the work, we'll post the finished presentation on a special download page (we'll send you an email informing you that your audio is ready).
• We'll correct any mistakes we make in editing and/or enhancing. Let us know if we need to make a revision within 30 days after we've sent you our first email letting you know that your audio is ready. We'll take care of it. The free revisions of your audio excludes any instruction changes (i.e. any additional instructions after you've sent us your original instructions). See details of our revision policy.
• Our turnaround time is 2 to 5 business days per recording.
If you have questions, try our frequently asked questions page, call or email us.
Samples of our audio editing and enhancing:
We encourage you listen to before and after examples of any audio editing service you're considering -- and listen with your best set of headphones. If an audio editing company doesn't post before and after audio samples, you won't know what they can do. Below are examples of projects we've worked on:
Sample 1:
MAKE-READY PODCAST: A customer purchased 10 podcast editing and enhancing jobs from us to transform his raw recording into a ready-to-go podcast, We eliminated uhs, ums, and other verbal mistakes, eliminated hiss and hum, and adjusted the volumes between the host and the guest. The customer also purchased our Intro and Outro Package — which we inserted into the show.
Before:
After:
Sample 2:
UNNECESSARY WORDS, DIGITAL POPS, AND A PHONE RINGING: In this brief sample of a podcast we repaired, we eliminated 3 problems:
1) The host said the word "the" two times in a row
2) Digital pops
3) Phone ringing
Before:
After:
Sample 3:
LOW MICROPHONE VOLUME AND HISS PROBLEM: A customer sent us a recording he made where his microphone wasn't working. In fact, his voice was recorded by the guest's microphone who sat across from him. Besides very low volume, the recording also had hiss and verbal flubs. We enhanced the interviewer's voice, and removed the hiss and flubs.
Before:
After:
Sample 4:
PODCAST EDITING AND ENHANCING OF DISTORTION, HISS AND UNEQUAL VOLUME LEVELS: In the before editing audio sample you’ll hear that the podcaster recorded herself on the left channel, and she chose the right channel to record her guest. You’ll notice at the very beginning the guest is making some noise. We removed the noise, reduced the hiss, adjusted the volume levels and made the recording sound more natural by converting it to monaural.
Before:
After:
Sample 5:
REMOVING THE HISS FROM AN AUDIO TRACK FOR A FILM: A filmmaker sent us the audio track from a documentary film he was creating that had a lot of hiss in it. We removed the hiss but kept the breath noises in the audio track to preserve the emotion.
Before:
After:
Sample 6:
REMOVING THE NOISE FROM AN AUDIO TRACK FOR A FILM: An independent filmmaker sent us the audio track from a movie he was creating. We asked the filmmaker to send us the video so we would know which sounds were intended for the movie and which ones weren't.

Price
We accept credit and debit cards and PayPal.
All of our orders are processed through PayPal (even if you use a credit or debit card). You don't need to have a PayPal account to make a purchase from us.
NOTE: We don't edit or enhance secretly recorded audio.
Buy an Audio editing and enhancing project
$9 per minute (5-minute minimum)
The price for editing and/or enhancing is based on the length of your raw recording (before editing). Round off to the nearest minute. We charge $9 per minute. For example, if you have a 10 minute and 38-second recording, the price is 11 x $9 for a total of $99.
If you just need a portion of your recording edited and/or enhanced, you can order enough minutes just for that section (although keep in mind we have a 5-minute minimum order requirement). For example, if only 7 minutes of a 30-minute recording need our attention, just order 7 minutes. We'll work only on the section you inform us needs improving.

Purchase 200 or more minutes and save!
$6 per minute when you purchase 200 or more minutes (in one order)
If you have at least 200 minutes of audio that you need edited and/or enhanced, or you plan on publishing several podcasts but you haven't recorded all of them yet, buy at least 200 minutes and get a reduced per minute price. When you do the math, you see that this is a significant savings over buying indivitual editing projects. For example, if you do 10-minute podcasts and you purchase 200 minutes, we'll edit 20 of your 10-minute recordings for $1200 (breaking down to $60 per podcast as opposed to $90 if you bought just one editing job).
We'll help you keep track of how many minutes you've used each time we send you a link to your latest download page of an edited and enhanced presentation.
