Post-production
Consistent sound across your entire catalogue.
You send finished edits. You get back files that meet your delivery spec, with a measurement report showing exactly what was done. Normally within 24 hours.
I've spent twenty years behind the console. Live sound, broadcast, TV, streaming. Saltwaves is the last step, run the same way every time.
Send a fileRecorded at home. Delivered to spec.
A narrator reading in a living room, Samson USB mic about 40 cm away. No treatment, no booth. The kind of file that arrives when recording moves out of the studio. Target: Nordic audiobook catalogue spec, −18 LUFS / −3 dBTP.
After
−18.0 LUFS integrated · −3.8 dBTPTwelve and a half decibels of gain, and the room doesn't come up with it. That's the part that doesn't automate itself.
What comes back
A finished master, cut to your delivery spec — not to my taste.
- Integrated loudness at your target
- True peak under your ceiling
- Noise floor handled without the pumping and swirl that aggressive cleanup leaves behind
- Mono downmix where your spec calls for it
- A measurement report per file, before and after
The report matters more than it sounds. You get a number you can hand to a distributor, not an engineer telling you it sounds fine.
Standard turnaround is 24 hours.
Podcast production companies
You already edit. You already cut. What you don't have is a way to make forty shows sound like they came from one house when six different editors touched them. This is the last step before publishing — after your edit, not instead of it.
Publishers and audiobook studios
Your narrators record at home now. The recordings that come back are fine, and they're all slightly different. This brings them to catalogue spec without raising the production budget on any single title.
Localisation and media services
Overflow capacity against your delivery spec, with a report per file so QC has something to check rather than something to listen to.
What this isn't built for
The chain processes one file end to end, with one set of decisions. That's a strength for a solo host, a narrator, a single mic in a single room. If you have a recording with several speakers, send each one as a separate file.
It's built for speech. It is not a music mastering service.
I'd rather tell you that now than after you've sent me something it can't do well.
Send raw, not published
Sixty seconds of raw audio is enough. Not a published episode — those are already mastered, and running them through anything just amplifies whatever cleanup was done the first time.
Better still: send a raw file from something you've already delivered. You have the finished version, so you have something to compare against.
No file service, no export dialogue. A mail attachment is fine.
