What a finished hour includes
A “finished hour” is one hour of polished, listener-ready audio, not one hour of raw, unedited recording.
We get the project ready and turn your manuscript into a read-ready document, whether you’re recording with us in studio or on your own.
Raw read time varies by narrator, but an hour of raw recording typically nets 45 to 50 minutes of finished audio.
Editing, retakes, and audio cleanup, then loudness mastered to ACX-approved specs.
Two full listen-throughs, with pickups re-recorded before it goes to you for review. Then we handle any retakes you want.
Every track is exported to ACX file spec and tested in ACX Lab, then distributed to platforms, or handed to you as files for your own archive or distribution.
Plus library systems and other retailers.
