How a local bookshop turned conversations into a weekly show
Librairie Dumas in Laval wanted to record casual book discussions between staff members. The raw audio was recorded on a single smartphone placed on a counter. Background noise from the shop floor was constant.
We cleaned up 45 minutes of audio per episode, separated voices, added a gentle musical intro composed specifically for the show, and wrote bilingual show notes. The podcast now has a loyal following of about 2,200 listeners per episode, and the bookshop reports that customers regularly mention hearing specific recommendations on the show before visiting.
Total production time per episode: roughly six hours from raw file to published feed. The shop owner spends zero time on post-production.
How we think about podcast audio
Clarity over loudness
We master to -16 LUFS for most platforms, but we never sacrifice dynamic range for volume. A whispered confession should feel intimate, not compressed into the same level as a laugh.
Editing that respects the speaker
We remove ums, long pauses, and technical glitches. We don't remove personality. If a host trails off mid-thought and circles back with a better phrase, we keep the better phrase and trim the false start, but we don't manufacture a version of the host that never hesitates.
Consistent delivery cadence
Listeners expect episodes on a schedule. We build a two-episode buffer into every retainer so that a missed recording session never means a missed publish date.
Platform-aware formatting
Apple, Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon each have slightly different metadata requirements, chapter marker support, and artwork specs. We handle those differences so your feed looks right everywhere.
Three ways people typically work with us
These aren't rigid packages. They're starting points that we adjust based on your quiz results and the conversation that follows.
Launch sprint
For creators who haven't published yet. We spend two to three weeks building your show from scratch: concept refinement, recording your first batch of episodes, creating cover art, composing intro music, setting up your RSS feed, and submitting to major platforms. You walk away with a live podcast and a clear production workflow for future episodes.
Post-production drop-off
You record on your own and send us the files. We edit, mix, master, and return polished audio within 72 hours. This works well for hosts who enjoy the recording process but don't want to spend evenings cleaning up audio. No minimum commitment; pay per episode.
Monthly retainer
Everything from recording coordination to publishing. We become your production team. Most retainer clients publish weekly or biweekly. The retainer includes editing, show notes, scheduling, and a quarterly review of listener analytics so we can adjust episode length, release timing, or content direction together.
Common questions
Do I need my own recording equipment?
Not necessarily. For remote recordings, a USB microphone like the Audio-Technica ATR2100x and a quiet room are enough. If you prefer to record in person, our studio in Laval is available for booking. We can also recommend affordable gear setups depending on your budget and recording environment.
How long does editing take per episode?
A typical 30-minute conversational episode takes us four to five hours of editing time, including noise reduction, levelling, and adding music. Interview-heavy episodes with multiple audio sources can take longer. We always quote turnaround time before starting.
Can you edit episodes recorded on Zoom or Riverside?
Yes. We work with multi-track exports from Riverside, SquadCast, Zencastr, and Zoom. If your platform only exports a single mixed track, we can still improve it significantly, though separate tracks give us much more control over individual voices.
What hosting platform do you recommend?
We most often set up shows on Buzzsprout or Transistor, but we're comfortable with Libsyn, Podbean, Captivate, and others. If you already have a host, we'll work within that platform.
Do you handle video podcasts?
Our core service is audio production. We can coordinate with a videographer for simultaneous video capture, but we don't offer video editing in-house. We do prepare audio tracks optimized for YouTube upload if you're handling the video side yourself.
