Podcast Production
From raw recording to published episode. Nothing missed.
Full-chain podcast production
A polished podcast episode starts long before loudness targeting. It starts with the edit - structural decisions about what stays, what gets cut, how the conversation flows. From there it goes through cleanup, processing, delivery formatting, and metadata. Every step has to be right or the whole chain fails.
We handle every step. You record. We produce the episode. You publish.
This applies equally to independent shows, corporate communications podcasts, healthcare and legal content, internal training programs, and branded media operations. The workflow is the same. The content changes.

Production chain
Edit
Structural edit, filler word removal, dead air cleanup, false start removal, pacing and flow. Multi-speaker level matching. Intro and outro placement. Transitions.
Cleanup
Noise reduction, room treatment, click and pop removal, breath and mouth noise reduction via iZotope RX. Level consistency across speakers and segments throughout the episode.
Music & Sound
Intro and outro music placement, ad read insertion, transition effects. Music beds mixed under dialogue at broadcast-appropriate levels. All licensed or client-supplied music.
Delivery
Loudness-targeted master per platform spec. MP3, AAC, or WAV export. ID3 metadata with episode title, show name, artwork, and chapter markers. RSS-ready file in your hands.
Transcript delivery
Every episode can include a machine-generated transcript produced via OpenAI Whisper, reviewed for accuracy, and formatted for your use case. Delivered as clean text, structured for show notes, or formatted for accessibility compliance.
Transcripts drive SEO, satisfy accessibility requirements, expand the audience to non-native speakers and hearing-impaired listeners, and give your team raw material for social clips, blog posts, and promotional content. For a professional media operation, they are not optional.
For legal, healthcare, and compliance-sensitive content, transcript accuracy and delivery documentation is available as part of the production package.
