Audience-Driven Audiobook and Podcast Production Services
Big-agency quality. Boutique-studio feel.
When you work with Krosby Audio, you don’t just get promises, you get guarantees. I’m transparent about my turnaround times (typically 2–5 business days), and I’ve never missed a deadline. Utilizing industry-standard production tools, including Pro Tools, Cubase Pro, iZotope RX Suite, FabFilter, Steinberg, and Native Instruments, I consistently deliver results that exceed expectations.
Podcast Editing and Producing
Make your podcast sound its best. Whether you need basic editing or full-production sound design, I’ll ensure your project is professional, polished, and engaging, from concept to launch.
I start by helping you develop your show’s concept and format during a pre-production session, followed by a host coaching session to build your confidence behind the mic. I support both remote and in-studio recording, creating top-quality sound from the start.
Once recorded, I handle detailed editing, including noise reduction, volume levelling, equalization, and the removal of filler words, awkward pauses, or dialogue errors. I mix each episode to broadcast standards and layer in lite sound design as needed. I’ll integrate your intro and outro music, source and license theme music, and produce branded podcast artwork that aligns with your show’s identity.
Each episode features a professionally written title and show notes, along with an accompanying transcript for accessibility and SEO purposes. I also handle RSS feed setup, episode uploads, and distribution to all major platforms. I’ll create a trailer to build anticipation and can provide a short social media clip optimized for your chosen platform to help with promotion.
To keep your content on track, I offer quarterly planning sessions to map out upcoming episodes and provide ongoing audience strategy to grow your listener base.
Audiobook Production and Editing
Let me help optimize your home recording setup, edit and produce your audiobook, and publish it on Amazon’s ACX platform, ensuring every step meets industry standards.
To begin, I’ll assess your current recording space for sound quality and noise control, providing budget-friendly recommendations to enhance your setup. I’ll provide best practices for clean, consistent recording and guide you through setting up a Digital Audio Workstation (DAW), if needed. You'll also receive personalized coaching on voice techniques to support long-form narration.
My recording support, offered live or asynchronously, helps you maintain tone, pacing, and performance consistency throughout your project. After recording, I’ll handle post-production editing for clarity, flow, and the removal of any distracting noises. I’ll then master your audio to meet ACX standards, add optional intro/outro content, update chapter metadata, and complete a thorough final quality check.
Once your audiobook is ready for release, I’ll guide you through the ACX publishing process to ensure your files meet all technical requirements for approval. Should any problems occur, I’ll resolve platform rejections or audio flag issues.
Optional add-ons include professional narration services, licensed intro/outro music or branded soundscapes, audiogram clips for social media promotion, and support for publishing to platforms beyond ACX.
Corporate Branded Content
Tell your brand’s story with authenticity. I’ll support you in planning, recording, and producing branded audio content that resonates and builds trust over time.
We’ll begin with a strategic planning session to define your brand voice, messaging goals, and target audience. From there, I’ll help you develop content themes that reflect your values and design episode formats that establish both authority and connection.
During the scriptwriting and story development stage, I craft clear, compelling scripts that strike the right balance between brand promotion and listener value. I use storytelling techniques to make the content relatable, human, and memorable while ensuring it aligns with industry standards and your internal brand guidelines.
Recording sessions, whether in-studio or remote, use professional-grade equipment and follow best practices to capture crisp, high-quality audio. I then edit, mix, and enhance the final product using carefully selected music, voiceovers, and subtle sound design. The result is a polished, engaging episode that seamlessly weaves your brand message throughout.
Once your content is ready, I support distribution and audience engagement by crafting strong episode titles, publishing to major podcast platforms, and exploring cross-promotion opportunities.
For long-term success, I also offer strategic support through performance tracking, optimization recommendations, and scalable content planning tailored to your
business goals.
Audio Restoration
Have poor-quality audio that needs rescuing? I use advanced restoration tools to remove unwanted noise, enhance clarity, and bring out the best in your recordings.
Whether you're working with podcast audio, voiceovers, archival recordings, or video soundtracks, I’ll tailor my approach using industry-standard software to suit your specific needs. I’ll reduce or eliminate sound interference such as background hiss, hum, static, traffic noise, and mic handling sounds. I’ll also focus on improving vocal clarity, presence, and intelligibility, repairing any issues to ensure smooth, clean playback.
Carefully, I’ll remove clicks, pops, lip smacks, harsh plosives, and other distractions, all while preserving the natural tone of the voice. I’ll perform room corrections to reduce excessive echo, improve dry sound quality, and adjust spatial characteristics for a tighter, more controlled vocal presence. If necessary, I can apply audio forensics or more advanced repair techniques to restore problematic sections.
To show you the difference, I provide before-and-after samples so you can hear the improvements. I’ll then deliver your final audio in broadcast-ready formats, such as WAV and MP3, with optional mastering or mixing available for integration into larger projects.
Audiobook and Podcast Production Training
Are you looking to take your recording, editing, and production skills to the next level? I offer customized 1:1 training programs tailored to your goals and experience level, delivered at your pace and in flexible formats to fit your lifestyle.
First, we’ll assess your current skills and workflow to define your goals. Based on that, I’ll create a personalized learning plan tailored to your tools, content style, and creative goals. You’ll learn essential techniques like noise reduction, de-clipping, de-humming, and EQ cleanup, all through real-world practice using problem audio files.
Training includes hands-on instruction with industry-standard software such as iZotope RX, Pro Tools, Audacity, and Cubase Pro. You’ll explore spectral editing, batch processing, and plugin chains to create efficient restoration workflows. I’ll also guide you on optimizing microphone placement, maintaining a consistent voice tone, and adjusting room acoustics to minimize issues before they reach post-production.
As your skills grow, we’ll cover more advanced editing and mastering techniques, including automation, compression, and meeting loudness standards for broadcast-ready audio. I’ll also teach you how to diagnose and repair common audio issues so you can confidently troubleshoot challenges independently.
To support your continued growth, I’ll provide bonus resources and ongoing support
via email.
