Mark L.

I’m a Podcast Producer & Audio Engineer from New York City specializing in post-production sound, music, & podcasting. I have over 20 years of experience producing audio for streaming & broadcast. I can help you with anything from audio editing & noise reduction to full-on multitrack mixing & mastering. I'd love to talk to you about your audio project or podcast. ABOUT ME: -------------- * I've been an audio engineer & podcast producer for regular shows with iHeartRadio, Hitachi, Book of the Month, & PC Magazine. * I have mixed music for artists signed to major record labels including Columbia Records, Sony Music, Virgin Records, Astralwerks, & Kitsune * I have mixed and mastered songs that have appeared on various TV and cable networks including NBC, CBS, HBO, Showtime, & MTV I am an expert in software like Ableton Live, Pro Tools, & Audition. I'm also an 'old school' engineer who grew up using only analog equipment, so I understand audio technologies & software thoroughly. Ultimately though, I use my ears & creative talents to get things sounding right. Send me your recordings & any notes you may have, & I can likely handle the rest. You'll receive a finished file with high production value in almost any file format that you need.
