I combine long-term technical expertise with state-of-the-art tools (including WaveLab Pro’s advanced spectral analysis) to deliver clarity and objective results.

OUR SPECIALIZED SERVICES:

1. Forensic Audio Enhancement

I specialize in improving the intelligibility of recordings for legal, investigative, private purposes, or simply want to digitalize and restore an historical family recording.

  • Speech Enhancement: Targeted isolation of voices in noisy environments (background noise, wind, traffic, or electronic interference).
  • Clarification: Using advanced surgical EQ and adaptive noise reduction to reveal critical audio details.
  • Authentication & Analysis: Detailed spectral analysis to verify the integrity of a recording and detect potential tampering or edits.

2. Cultural Heritage & Archive Restoration

Preserving history through sonic precision. I offer high-fidelity restoration for historical archives, institutions, and private collectors.

  • Digitization Refinement: Removing clicks, pops, hiss, and crackle from vintage recordings (Tape, Vinyl) while maintaining the original tonal character.
  • Sonic Repair: Fixing dropouts, hums, and spectral artifacts caused by aging or poor storage conditions, reduce or remove wind and background noise, enhance quiet sounds, reduce or remove distortion, and more.
  • Standard Compliance: Deliverables are provided in high-resolution formats, ensuring long-term preservation according to international archival standards.
