The editor behind the clean listen.
I'm Connor — a freelance audio editor and QC specialist working with publishers and independent authors to turn raw narration into finished, retailer-ready audiobooks.
My job starts where the narrator's ends. I take their files and work through every chapter: cleaning up breaths and mouth noise, smoothing pacing, fixing retakes, then a full QC pass against the manuscript to catch anything that slipped through.
The goal is simple — files that pass spec first time and a listen that lets the narrator's performance shine without distraction.
