Summary

I am creating a series of children's bedtime books I have already recorded the narration in my own voice and created the background music and songs. I am looking for an experienced audio editor/sound designer to polish the final audio while keeping my voice sounding natural and authentic. Tasks include: • Clean up and enhance narration audio (remove background noise, improve clarity, volume leveling, gentle EQ and compression). • Keep my voice sounding like me – no AI voice replacement. • Blend my narration smoothly into AI-generated songs. • Create seamless transitions between spoken narration and music. • Balance music and narration levels so the words are always clear. • Add subtle bedtime atmosphere where appropriate (soft clouds, gentle magical ambience, calming effects). • Deliver audio files that are easy to synchronize with individual pages of a children's picture book. • Ideally provide timestamps or separate audio segments corresponding to each page/spread. Project details: • Initial project includes two stories, with additional books planned. Please provide: • Examples of audiobook, meditation, or podcast editing work. • Your estimated turnaround time. I would like the final result to feel warm, professional, calming, and magical while preserving the authenticity of my own narration.
