Audible Ready
2ndOpinion Verified
English & German
Based in Germany, with over 30 years of studio experience. I edit audiobooks for self-publishing authors who want their work to sound as professional as it reads. Every project is delivered to full ACX compliance, verified with industry-standard analysis tools, and ready for direct upload to Audible. For complex productions — custom music integration, special chapter structures, or anything out of the ordinary — we discuss it by phone or Zoom, in German or English.
Everything Your Audiobook Needs
Precision Editing
Breath removal, click reduction, room tone restoration, retakes, and pacing — without losing the natural feel of the performance.
Voice Enhancement
Subtle EQ and compression tailored to the voice. Warm, clear, and consistent from the first chapter to the last.
ACX Compliance
Every file delivered to Audible’s exact specifications — RMS loudness, noise floor, peak levels, and file format. Always verified with 2ndOpinion.
Proof Listening
A complete pass through the finished audiobook with script in hand — verifying every word against the original text, catching speaker errors like duplicate takes, missed cuts, and anything editing alone might miss.
Music Integration
Need music added to chapters, intros, or outros? I can integrate supplied tracks seamlessly. Available on request — ask via the contact form.
Personal Consultation
Special requests, unusual chapter structures, or specific creative visions? We talk it through by phone or Zoom — in German or English.
Simple, Transparent Rates
