About James

I’m a UK-based podcast producer and audio engineer with around three years of podcast production experience and more than ten years of professional audio editing, mixing and mastering experience. I hold a First-Class BA (Hons) in Music Production and work primarily in Logic Pro.

I handle the complete post-production journey from raw recordings to polished, professional episodes. My work includes dialogue editing, noise reduction, restoration, pacing and content edits, EQ, compression, mixing, mastering, sound design, music integration, episode assembly and final delivery to the required loudness and format specifications.

I’m particularly experienced with interview, business, educational, nonprofit, social-impact and music podcasts. I bring the same attention to detail to spoken-word production that I developed through professional music production, focusing on clarity, natural pacing, consistent sound and an enjoyable listener experience.

I’m comfortable managing recurring episodes, multiple speakers, remote recordings and technically challenging audio. Clients can expect clear communication, organised file management, reliable delivery and a thoughtful approach that respects the individual identity of each show.

I’m currently available for remote freelance, recurring and long-term podcast production work.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does your podcast production service include?
My audio podcast production service can include dialogue editing, noise reduction, restoration, pacing edits, EQ, compression, mixing, mastering, music integration, episode assembly and delivery in the required formats. Video editing, captions, social clips and artwork can also be quoted separately.
How quickly can you deliver an episode?
My standard turnaround is three to five business days once all source files, instructions and assets have been received. Recurring shows can be scheduled around an agreed weekly or monthly production calendar.
What happens if my recording has poor audio quality?
I can often improve recordings affected by background noise, inconsistent levels, room sound and other common technical problems. I will assess the files first and explain what can realistically be improved before beginning any extensive restoration work.
