About this course

This course walks through every stage of audio post-production used by professional sound editors: cleaning noisy location recordings, sculpting tone with EQ, controlling dynamics with compression and limiting, and delivering files that meet LUFS targets for streaming and broadcast. You will work with real-world session examples in Audacity, Adobe Audition, and Reaper, learning the underlying signal-processing principles so the skills transfer across any DAW. By the end, you will be able to take any recorded track — podcast interview, voiceover, dialogue — and deliver a polished, standard-compliant file with confidence.
