How Does It Work?
I’ve placed my order, now what?
Meet Your Specialist
After placing your order, our team will reach out to you to schedule your 1-on-1 audio consultation. During this remote consultation, you’ll discuss your content with your assigned audio specialist and review your audio signal chain – your recording environment, microphone, hardware, software, settings, etc.
*Please allow 12-14 hours for our team to contact you.
Audio Asset Inspection
After the consultation, you’ll provide sample recordings of your production, your music themes, sound effects, and voice-over recordings (if applicable), as separate files to your audio specialist.
Our team will then dive and inspect every piece of audio for quality and consistency, and identify and address any potential issues that may get in the way of delivering high-quality audio.
Custom Session File Creation
Following the thorough inspection, our audio specialists will doctor each piece individually for optimal dynamics, equalization, and noise. Each asset will be assigned its dedicated track, and the entire compilation will be assembled into a software session file for editing software of your choice.
This file can serve as a template, ensuring a consistently full and balanced audio output whenever you create content, ultimately delivering a delightful listening experience for your audience.
Ready for Launch
With the mix effects applied, levels fine-tuned, and audio tracks assigned in the session file for all audio assets, the only remaining step is to simply drag and drop the audio for your new content onto their respective tracks and proceed with the editing.
The sound of an audio engineer right in your computer.
How Does a Custom Session File as a Template Affect Your Content?
Production templates streamline your creation process. By having pre-configured settings for audio levels, effects, and presets, you can significantly reduce the time it takes to produce high-quality audio. This allows you to create more content in less time, which can be especially useful for meeting tight deadlines and releasing content fast.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
S-Tier Audio is not an audio editing service. We make it significantly easier for your content to sound the best it can. Or team gets your content audio mixed & balanced and save the knob, fader, and effect settings in a session file for your preferred editing software. You then use that same session file every time you want to create new content/episodes.
-
A session file in software typically refers to a file that stores the current state or configuration of a user's work within the software. It contains information about open documents, settings, and the arrangement of elements on the workspace. By saving this information in a session file, users can easily resume your work exactly where our audio experts left off, without having to mix, adjust settings, and proccess your audio.
-
The process commences immediately with the quick delivery of your Audio Best Practices Guide to your email. Following your 1-on-1 audio consultation with your dedicated audio specialist, you can anticipate the completion and delivery of your personalized session file within three business days.
-
Yes, you absolutely can. Most of our clients were already releasing content before having a custom session file made for them. What they experience was a heightened level of clarity and balance in their audio and their listening experience.
-
Not everyone may find it suitable. S-Tier Audio custom session files
cater to individuals, groups, and businesses that view audio as an
integral part of their brand, prioritizing it rather than treating it as an afterthought. Whether starting a content, podcast, or production
venture, or give their audio identity an overhaul, these custom files are crafted for those who want to begin or enhance their journey with top-notch quality. -
No, no, no -- not physically. This isn't Zoolander. However, the experience will resemble having someone enter and handle all the knob adjustments and level settings and leave the room before you enter.
-
This presents a challenging decision. Like any undertaking, achieving an improvement in output quality requires investments. For instance, if your budget limits you to a laptop microphone, having a custom session file might not provide as much benefit, as the original audio would need significant editing to meet our quality standards.
We strongly encourage you to keep releasing your content, and if your budget allows in the future, please contact us so we can enhance your audio experience even further. However, it's worth noting that we will soon introduce a budget-friendly, non-custom version of the session files. Stay tuned for updates by signing up to our newsletter.
