How The Audio Book Pros
Service Works

We work closely with authors throughout the audiobook publishing process to ensure
your audiobook matches your vision. Here’s what you can expect.

Audiobook Questionnaire

We start the audiobook publishing process once the final interior is approved. We’ll send an audiobook questionnaire that asks you to describe your ideal narrator based on gender, accent, and more. Our questionnaire also asks you to specify any words that need special pronunciation and any other special notes.

Narrator Selection

We open a casting call to 500+ professional narrators. Narrators that are a good match will submit five-minute auditions for your approval. You’ll typically get five to ten different auditions. This step takes seven to ten business days.

Recording

After selecting a narrator, it’s time to start recording. Your book will be recorded in chapters if it has them. We send the raw audio recordings for you to review for misreads and mistakes, then rerecord any edits. You’ll receive a changes form to record all necessary changes.

Editing

After you approve the raw audio, we record and add backing music to the opening and closing credit files. We then go through the recording word by word to apply manual detail editing for breath control, lip/mouth sounds, pace corrections, and remove any other unwanted sounds.

After this, we apply a carefully balanced mix with EQ, Compression, Saturation, and other production tools to achieve a nice and warm overall sound. The final step of the editing process is to master and format the audio to meet audiobook requirements and ensure outlets accept them.

Final Review

Once editing is complete, we’ll send you the final audiobook to review. When you’re satisfied and approve the final product, we’ll distribute your audiobook to retailers, making your work accessible to a broader audience of eager listeners.

Superior Quality Audiobook Creation

Our service helps you publish a high-quality audiobook without breaking the bank. You can also set your narrator preferences based on gender, accent, and tone of voice. We pair you with the perfect narrator to bring your book to life. Once complete,

The Audio Book Pros helps you sell your audiobook through Audible and Apple.

Why Publish an Audiobook With
The Audio Book Pros?

The Audio Book Pros stands out as a top publishing company because of our dedication to our authors. Here are four reasons why you should partner with The Audio Book Pros for self-publishing audiobooks.

Talented Narrators

The narrator sets the tone for your book, so picking the right one is crucial. That’s why we’ve put a lot of time, energy, and effort into curating a roster of amazing narrators. Our audiobook publishing service consists of over 500 talented narrators to help you find the perfect match for any audiobook. Our experienced audio producers know how to make audio sound great and give the audience a great listening experience.

Quality

While producing an audiobook via ACX at a lower price is possible, these cheaper narrators are usually amateurs. The narrators on ACX also do all of the work of a sound engineer even though they lack the skills for editing, mixing, and mastering. This results in a subpar audiobook.

Quality matters, especially when listening to longer audio files like audiobooks. With The Audio Book Pros, everyone focuses on what they do best to ensure a great listening experience. Our narrators focus on recording an entertaining performance that readers will enjoy and connect with. Our audio engineers go through the audio to perform detailed edits and remove unwanted elements. They also apply a carefully balanced mix of pleasant and warm overall sound.

Adjustments for Headphone Users

We know a good 75% of listeners prefer to use headphones, and headphones tend to catch unwanted details in audio like loud uncontrolled breaths, lip/mouth sounds, and background noise. Our audio engineers pay special attention to these details and remove them so headphone users can enjoy high-quality audio.

Satisfaction Guarantee

As always, satisfaction and quality are guaranteed. With careful attention to detail, we ensure your self-published audiobooks reach their highest potential. Your dedication to excellence is matched by our commitment to helping your audiobook succeed.
