02The signal chain

From breath to broadcast, in the order sound travels.

Every service below is one stop along this path. Take the whole route, or step in at the stop you need.

  1. Capture

    Room tone first, then voices on matched condensers, one track per speaker so nobody’s cough lands on someone else’s sentence.

    Same day
  2. Edit

    Breaths trimmed to a whisper, ums lifted out, room tone laid back into every gap so the seams disappear.

    5 working days
  3. Mix & master

    Dialogue levelled, hiss drawn away, finished at −16 LUFS and auditioned on earbuds, a kitchen speaker and a car dashboard.

    Included
  4. Deliver

    Final WAV and MP3 in your folder, show notes beside them. One invoice follows, and not before.

A quote in writing

Describe the show. We’ll price the sound.

Send a sentence or a rough voice memo. A fixed written quote comes back within one working day, and nothing is billed until your final files are delivered.

05Before your session

What to bring, and what we’ve already set out.

You bring

  • An outline or a list of questions, printed if you like paper under your hands.
  • Water, room temperature. Cold water tightens the throat and thins the voice.
  • Quiet clothing. Silk jackets and jangling bracelets show up on tape.
  • Sending files instead? One WAV per speaker, in one folder.

We provide

  • Matched large-diaphragm condensers and a pop screen at every chair.
  • Closed-back headphones with a private cue mix for each voice.
  • Thirty seconds of room tone, recorded before anyone speaks.
  • An engineer in the room, and a folder of raw WAVs when you leave.
