Professional audio that serves the story, performance and music. I’m Wesley, a Senior Audio Engineer, Mixing Engineer and Music Producer with 7+ years of professional audio-production experience, 6 years producing music for clients, and more than 15 years developing my craft as a producer. I work across music production, mixing, audio editing, dialogue restoration, audio post-production and vocal processing, using Pro Tools, Ableton Live and iZotope RX to deliver clean, polished and technically reliable audio. My professional post-production background includes Final Mix, ADR/voice recording, dialogue cleanup, editing to picture and multilingual localisation for internationally distributed television, animation and digital content. I have worked on high-volume productions and recognised projects while maintaining demanding technical and delivery standards. As a mixer, my goal is not simply to make elements louder or cleaner. I shape vocals/dialogue, music and effects so they sit naturally together, creating a cohesive mix rather than competing layers. As a music producer, I bring more than 15 years of hands-on production experience, with particular strength in electronic music, house, cinematic textures and emotionally driven arrangements. I can help with: Music production from concept through final mix Mixing and mastering Vocal editing, processing and cleanup Dialogue restoration and noise reduction Audio editing for video, podcasts and digital content ADR / voice recording preparation and editing Sound design and atmospheric audio Stem mixing and session cleanup Remixing, arrangement and production enhancement I work carefully, communicate clearly and focus on delivering audio that supports the creative intent of the project. If you have a track, recording, dialogue edit or production that needs to sound polished and professional, I’d be happy to discuss it.

My name is Bernard van Hoven, I am a full time professional Sound Engineer from South Africa. I specialize in audio editing, mixing, mastering, sound design and audio cleanup and I am passionate about what I do. Getting an exceptional product is one of my top priorities and I will always put the project first. My writing style is professional and I will keep it that way, unless you want to work with my more chilled side, either way, I am friendly, so don't hesitate to send me a message. NOTE: I do not use any AI assistance in my work, I care more for the art than popping out 100s of productions as fast as possible. I have 7 years audio experience and 4 years industry experience. I have a diploma in music technology from Emendy Multimedia Technology Institute. I primarily work in audio postproduction as a Final Mix Engineer in which I have about 5 years experience on a variety of post jobs. I have worked on a project that won the award for Best Documentary at the South African Film and Television Awards. (Yes, I didn't personally win for best sound, but it definitely helped us win!) What I do: -Audio Editing for documentaries, reality tv, podcasts, audiobooks, advertising content etc. -Mixing & Mastering with relevant loudness metering (EBU R128, ACX, streaming etc.) -Audio Production -Noise Reduction -Sound Effects & Foley -Music Production & Composition -Field Recording Communicating and revising until the work is great is important to me. I am happy to do short demos. I do loudness analysis for all my work to ensure optimal loudness levels for all the different sites and outlets available. I am proficient in most broadcasting specs and streaming site requirements, and can easily adjust to meet any parameter targets necessary.
