They were collaborative, responsive, and committed to excellence every step of the way.Our community was thrilled with the video, and it perfectly captured the impact of our work over the past 25 years.

Min Benjamin-Hong's Review Sourced from Google
To say that Mixology Post is THE place for all your sound needs would be an understatement. Rob Kahn, the Owner and Executive Creative Director is as modest and down-to-earth as he is exceptionally talented and professional. In numerous collaborations over the years, Rob and his team have always surpassed expectations. They deliver on time, on budget, and on brief. They do everything from original music composition, sound design, sound editing, branding, commercial, experiential, narrative work... they do it all. And do it with utmost passion, care, and precision! They're really easy to work with and always bring fresh ideas to a project, big or small. Mixology's client list is a veritable who's who of industry leaders and media brands: HBO, NBCUniversal, National Geographic, Sundance, Nike, and ESPN to name just a few. But don't let their prestige discourage you: Rob is super nice and he's always willing to work with your budget. Rob and Mixology Post are my first and last resort for our sound work. Phenomenal.

Frequently Asked Questions About Audio Production Companies
What audio production services do most agencies offer?
They typically offer a comprehensive suite of services, including:
Voice-over recording: Recording and directing talents for ads, explainer videos, eLearning modules, and audiobooks.
Podcast production: Episode planning, recording, editing, mixing/mastering, and publishing. As of 2025, there were over 4.4 million titles and 400 million episodes worldwide, making it one of the fastest-growing segments.
Foley (sound design): Producing custom sound effects and audio elements for videos, games, apps, and branded content.
Audio branding: Crafting sonic logos, brand anthems, and usage guidelines. According to Amp Sound Branding's Best Audio Brands report, 139 out of 250 major brands now have a sonic logo.
Music composition and licensing: Creating original scores or helping secure rights to existing tracks to enhance storytelling.
What types of businesses usually work with these types of companies?
They usually serve a diverse range of industries, and these are the most common ones:
Advertising and marketing agencies are among the most frequent clients, creating radio spots, TV commercials, and digital ads.
Entertainment and media companies rely on audio production for broadcast content and streaming platforms.Â
The podcasting industry continues to expand rapidly, with 158 million Americans listening to podcasts monthly as of 2025, driving significant demand for professional production services.
Gaming studios hire audio teams for sound effects and voice acting, while film and television productions need everything from dialogue cleanup to full post-production sound design.
eLearning companies require professional narration for training modules and courses.
SaaS businesses and B2B service providers round out the client mix, often seeking audio branding elements like sonic logos or on-hold messaging content.
What is the difference between an audio production company and a recording studio?
Recording studios primarily focus on capturing sound. They provide physical space, microphones, and recording equipment.
You walk in, record, and walk out with raw audio files.
Audio production companies offer a broader service scope: scripting, concept development, talent sourcing and direction, editing, sound design, mixing, mastering, and final delivery.Â
Think of it this way: a recording studio is like a commercial kitchen you can rent, while an audio production company is like a catering service that plans the menu, sources the ingredients, cooks, plates, and delivers the food.
What questions should I ask before hiring one of these companies?
We would recommend asking the following questions prior to hiring:
Relevant Background
What types of audio production do you specialize in?
Can you share recent samples similar to our style, audience, and distribution channel?
What results did those projects achieve?
Services and Processes
What does your end-to-end workflow look like, from pre-production to post-production and delivery?
Do you support distribution and publishing? If so, which platforms do you cover?
Do you provide multilingual production (translation, localization, voice casting for different accents)? How do you manage pronunciation/brand terminology?
How do you handle licensing and usage rights for music, sound effects, and voice talent?
Do you use any AI tools? How do you ensure originality, permissions, and legal/brand safety?
Related to Your Project
What timeline and budget range do you recommend for our project, and what impacts these?
How will you ensure the final audio matches our brand, and who signs off on creative?
Who owns the raw sessions and final masters, and what file formats/stems will we receive?
How long does a typical audio production project take?
An audio production project can take anywhere between 1 week and over 2 months to complete, depending on project type, recording load, talent availability, and feedback loop.
Here's an approximate timeline:
A 30-60-second commercial generally requires 1-2 weeks to record, edit, and produce after the approval of the voiceover actor and script.
A 10-minute voiceover corporate narration can take anywhere between 1 and 2 weeks with a polished script.
eLearning guides take about 1-2 months for a market-ready module.
An audiobook requires 1-2 months to produce, but it may take longer if the book requires more than one voiceover actor.
Around 1-5 podcast episodes may take 1-2 months in total for pre-production, recording, post-production, and publishing.
