Podcast & post-production

Formats we edit

Interview shows, panels, internal training audio, radio pieces and narration for brand film — whenever speech is the focus. Music-heavy albums go through mixing; release loudness through mastering.

Remote interviews from Riverside, SquadCast or Zoom arrive as splits or a mix; we sanity-check quality before committing. Sessions recorded here use treated booths (2 ISO booths) and engineers who have worked at the studio since 2019.

Typical edit workflow

We structure first: intro, body, sections, outro. Then we cut off-topic passages you mark or that we filter by guideline. Long thinking pauses shorten without sounding rushed — rhythm matters more than radio pace.

With multiple speakers we balance level and EQ so no one disappears. Music and stingers sit under or between lines with ducking so words stay intelligible.

Noise, room and mic issues

De-noise and de-reverb are applied carefully. HVAC hum can often be saved; clipped Zoom echo sometimes cannot — then we discuss retakes or acceptance. New hosts: our prepare vocals for studio guide helps podcast voices too.

• Plosives and sibilance handled with EQ and manual edits
• No synthetic “AI voice” without explicit commission
• No falsifying content — edits are editorial, not deceptive

Chapters, tags and platforms

For Apple Podcasts and compatible apps we export chapter markers (titles from you). ID3 tags with title, episode number and cover art on request — you supply art; we skip embedding if rights are unclear.

YouTube cuts can tolerate longer intros; RSS feeds often prefer shorter opens. Variants are add-ons or billed at €92 hourly.

Episode vs hourly pricing

The episode package €235 covers up to 45 minutes of raw continuous conversation — edit, cleanup, level and one export. Several short pieces the same week can bundle; longer raw runs go hourly or with a surcharge.

Net hourly: €76.67. 30% deposit on series bookings; balance monthly or per episode as agreed. B2B term 14 days on request.

Location, on-site and remote

Studio at Siebensterngasse 19, 1070 Wien — U3 Neubaugasse station, Siebensterngasse exit — about three minutes on foot to Siebensterngasse 19. Bus line 13A stops at Neubaugasse / Burggasse (around five minutes on foot).. Hours: Monday to Friday 10:00–20:00, Saturday 10:00–16:00, closed on Sunday.. Phone +43 1 996 42 18.

Many clients send files only; others record at the round table with an engineer and leave with raw material while the finished show is cut afterward. Both paths use the same Neubau team.

For recurring seasons we agree a naming scheme and folder structure up front so episode 12 is as smooth as episode 1. That small planning step saves back-and-forth when deadlines stack on Mon–Fri 10–20, Sat 10–16 weeks.
