Podcast Editing
Cutting a raw recording into a finished episode: removing false starts, long pauses and tangents, while keeping the conversation natural.
- Price
- From $165.00 per episode
- Free trial
- One episode up to 30 minutes, edited and mastered, no card, no commitment.
What to send us
The raw recording, separate tracks for each speaker if you have them, your show's style for cutting tangents and filler words, and any segments to add or remove.
What you get back
A finished episode with false starts, long pauses and unwanted sections removed, plus timestamps for chapters and anything you asked us to flag.
What to check before you sign off
Listen to the episode without the raw file for comparison. Good editing is not noticeable; if a cut makes a speaker sound unnatural or a joke lose its timing, flag it.
