Had an Interview here and the old wrinkly man who interviewed me was extremely rude and passive aggressive. The best time that came out of the interview was that I did not get this job, if I had I would have 10000% quit because of the hostile and aggressive environment. do not use this company unless you enjoy talking to rude old people.

Tried to get one of my Pakistani artists studio time here but they are super selective about who they work with. We offered to do promo and pay for a few hours each week instead of booking their usual five hour minimum but extreme rules for a studio.

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.

Phoebe Jones's Review Sourced from Google
I can't recommend Janis enough. His humility, his outstanding professionalism throughout the process, his post production genius, and his kind and clever manner with which he conducts all his work. Our short film project would not be as good without Janis' contribution throughout. He is such a credit to any project. We were able to work together on ideas for sound design and what he delivered was way better than I had imagined for myself. I'm over the moon with the result and so grateful for all Janis' work & creativity on this project. Very lovely and talented human.

Ma Matt's Review Sourced from Google
Earlier this year, we collaborated with CABBAGE in Budapest for a commercial shoot on behalf of our Chinese client. CABBAGE acted as our local production partner and helped us put together a fantastic creative team for the project.From pre-production, creative support, on-site execution to post-production, the whole process was smooth and professional. The CABBAGE team was highly efficient, well-organized, and always quick to respond whenever we needed anything. Our client was extremely satisfied with the final result, and we were too.Their office environment also deserves a mention — it’s comfortable, welcoming, and fully equipped, providing a perfect base for both prep and post work. You can really feel their passion for production the moment you walk in.A special thanks to Szabi Moradi, who was an exceptional producer throughout the project. Professional, easy to communicate with, flexible, and always willing to go the extra mile to make things happen. Working with him was a real pleasure.This collaboration was not just a successful project, but also the beginning of a genuine friendship with the CABBAGE team. I look forward to working together again soon. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a reliable and talented production partner in Hungary!

DDP conducted an amazing interview for me promoting my Veteran and PTSD awareness event 2 tough 2 talk. Their team took care of all of the effects,lighting and digital artwork for our performers. Her team showed up on time and conducted themselves like professionals. In addition, they also pieced together a recap for me to promote my future events. I am blown away by their quick action, creative angle and style that they've given my event. Beyond anything imagined you took everything to a superior level. I could have never done that on my own. Thank you so much Digital Distortion Production cant wait to work with you again!

Jessica Spencer's Review Sourced from Google
I hired 5Gear Studios for a corporate event we hosted in June. From the very beginning, they were great to work with. Darren took the time to meet with me and discuss in detail what we wanted. The booking process was smooth and their staff are responsive and easy to work with.Come the day of the event, the staff were prompt and friendly. They do a great job of catching moments without being in the way or being obnoxious. Unfortunately we did have a snag, it was one of the hottest days of the year and our venue lost power so we were evacuated from the building -- the filming team followed us to a second location and continued to film, rolling with the punches without hesitation. They were amazing to work with.I have only seen a draft of our sizzle reel so far but I am impressed with the turn around time and the quality of the reel.Overall, I highly recommend 5Gear for any videography needs.

Darren and his team are a pleasure to work with, incredibly capable and put the clients needs front and center. Production and shoots run smoothly and on time. Great final product. Our go-to agency, bar none.
Chris Walshe's Review Sourced from Google
I've been working with the 5 gear team for almost a decade now. They are my go to video production company no matter the scale. I've hired them for single videographers covering events, commercials, green screen capture and motion design, video editing and all the way up to large scale livestream shows with clients such as Samsung. Every single time is flawless and professional! Darren and his team always check in with me multiple times before any shoot and there is clear communication throughout. The videos are always of the highest quality and with their robust backup system I've even been able to recover footage I've lost. I would highly recommend them for any project.

Camp LUCK's Review Sourced from Google
Thank you, Episode 11!It’s hard to capture in words what a summer camp experience means to kids. A very “regular" experience like summer camp is even more meaningful for kids with unique medical conditions. Since 2010 Camp LUCK has provided a positive experience that helps everyone reach their potential by building self-esteem, friendships and character in a safe environment. We want our “heart kids” to be “regular kids” for a week and participate in awesome activities that they might not normally be able to. Episode 11 volunteered to capture that experience — and did so — through the words and pictures of some of our campers. The campers’ candid interviews are a powerful reminder of what Camp LUCK means to these kids and their families. And without question, the video documents how much fun they have just being kids.

I could not recommend Israel Bonequi and his team at INDFilms more. They were helpful from DAY 1 with every aspect of making my documentary film: filming, editing, troubleshooting, creative brainstorming, helping me take it to a place I couldn't have on my own.Israel's technological knowledge and skills across the spectrum of filmmaking are matched only by his creativity, and his consistent kindness, generosity of time and spirit, encouragement and calm. I would add that Israel was always open to my ideas, helping me hold onto, but refine, the vision I had for my film.

They help businesses create clear, consistent, and persuasive sound across marketing, video production, and internal communications.
Audio production agencies create radio, streaming, and podcast commercials, including scripting, casting, voice-over, recording, mixing, and mastering.
In the United States, audio is now a mass-reach channel, considering 79% of Americans age 12+ listen to online audio monthly, according to Edison Research.
Podcasts have become mainstream, according to research that shows 55% of Americans listen to podcasts monthly, and 40% weekly.
The demand for audio services is growing rapidly.
According to IBISWorld, the United States alone has more than 25,000 audio production studios. It generates roughly $1.8 billion in annual revenue, while the broader professional audio market exceeded $12.5 billion in 2025 and is projected to reach over $17 billion by 2030.
Globally, the audio recording services market is projected to exceed $4.3 billion, reflecting growing demand for high-quality studio production.
This growth is also driven by the expansion of podcasts, streaming music, video production, branded content, social media marketing, and feature film production.
Podcast ads can drive unusually strong brand lift. Namely, Nielsen reports aided recall of 71% for podcast advertising vs 50% for people not exposed to them, and brand awareness lift of 13 percentage points in podcasts.
The IAB's FY2023 study reports $1.9B in U.S. podcast ad revenue in 2023, projected to exceed $2B in 2024 and reach nearly $2.6B by 2026, which is a strong signal that businesses keep investing in the channel.
The global audio post-production services market was valued at about $9 billion in 2024 and is growing at nearly 6.9% annually, driven largely by the film, advertising, gaming, and music industries.
The best audio production companies create reusable brand elements for branded content and social media, such as:
They collaborate with video production teams to deliver:
Studies show that sound quality directly affects how audiences judge a message and a speaker. One controlled finding shows that listeners rated the same talk 19.3% better with high-quality audio than with slightly distorted/echo-prone audio.
When businesses hire audio production companies, the process typically follows six to eight structured stages, including discovery, pre-production planning, recording, editing, sound design, mixing, mastering, and final delivery.

| Pre-production planning | 3-10 days |
|
| Recording sessions | 1-3 days |
|
| Editing and sound cleanup | 1-5 days |
|
| Sound design and creative production | 1-7 days |
|
| Mixing | 2-7 days |
|
| Mastering and finalization | 1-3 days |
|
| Delivery, revisions, and distribution | 1-5 days |

The cost of hiring audio production companies varies depending on the type of project, the experience of the producer or sound engineer, the location of the recording studio, and the complexity of the final content.
Typical hourly rates according to multiple agency sources include:
In large media markets such as Los Angeles or New York, premium studios equipped with Pro Tools systems, advanced mixing consoles, and acoustic recording rooms may charge $100-$300+ per hour.
Some studios also offer daily rates. Mid-range professional studios often cost $500-$1,000 per day for recording sessions.
When businesses hire audio production agencies for larger projects, total budgets often fall into these ranges:
| Project type | Budget |
| Podcast episode | $200-$1,500 |
| Commercial audio ad | $1,000-$10,000 |
| Corporate video audio | $500-5,000 |
| Music single production | $500-5,000 |
| Full album production | $10,000-$100,000+ |
| Film sound design | $5,000-$50,000 |
The timeline for an audio production project varies depending on the type of content, the complexity of the sound design, and the number of collaborators involved.
Simple projects like podcasts or social media audio may be completed within a few days, while larger projects such as feature film soundtracks or music albums can take several months.
Large productions such as feature films, documentaries, or television series require more time because they involve extensive sound design, dialogue editing, Foley recording, and multi-channel mixing.
Audio post-production for a 30-minute film, for example, can require 150-300 hours of work depending on audio quality and complexity.
| Project type | Timeline |
| Podcast episode | 1-3 days |
| Short commercial | 3-7 days |
| Corporate video audio | 1-3 weeks |
| Music single | 1-3 weeks |
| EP or album | 1-3 months |
| Film or documentary audio | Several weeks to months |
As audio becomes a core component of modern communication, organizations across multiple sectors rely on recording studios, sound engineers, music producers, and sound design specialists to produce high-quality audio.
