1. Music Production: We offer Music Production Service with diverse activities ranging from song writing, arranging and programming services.

2. Mixing: Mixing Is An Art That Takes Years To Master & Is Likely The Most Critical Aspect Of Making Recorded Music. It Is Where A Talented Engineer Uses Equalization, Compression, Automation, And Effects Processing To Accurately Balance & Blend Multiple Sounds In A Clear & Coherent Manner.
Beyond anything else, the majority of the work done at Sophia Studios is mixing. Our clients come to us because they know we truly have some of the best mix engineers in the country as part of our team and we continue you to prove it with every project we work on. When it comes to mixing, experience transcends even the best equipment. Anyone can call themselves a mixing engineer, but truth lies in sound quality. Each of our staff engineers has years of experience and have some of the best equipment there is to get the job done. Audio or Music Mixing is the process of transforming raw audio/sound recordings into balanced audio/music pieces that are made into records and played on the radio. Part science and part art, mixing requires very good equipment, a reliable listening environment and an experienced mixing engineer. Sophia Touch has an acoustically appropriate control/mixing room with professional digital equipment operated by experienced sound engineers to bring the best out of your work.
3. Mastering: Mastering is the final step in the production of an album or single. It is a vital process that ensures maximum impact on the end listener. Attention is paid not only to the sound of each individual track, but to the overall consistency & continuity from track to track, to achieve a smooth flowing, level-matched CD. The main objective is to achieve optimum sound quality & level for the project. Rarely does a poorly mastered project find itself well received by the listening public. It's the polish that makes your sound shine. At Sophia, we can turn your demo into a more polished, commercial sounding record. This is done using subtle EQ, compression and limiting. For CD mastering we use the finest quality hardware to create a polished sound.
The mastering studio also has adequate mastering equalizers to make sure your CD has a flat frequency response and sounds great on any system. When you record at home your acoustics and monitors may not be up to scratch and you may make wrong decisions. We monitor on very high quality monitors in an acoustically-treated room and can make our EQ decisions with confidence. We also use a variety of high quality, analogue mastering compressors to even out the dynamics and make the audio louder and more exciting. We can go from transparent to dirty and in-your-face depending on the material.
Once your audio is sounding as good as it can we will burn a Red Book CD with ISRC codes and also print off a PQ sheet (required by duplication companies). Just bring in the unprocessed files on CD and we will process and deliver your mastered CD.
4. Voice-over Recording: We are your voice over experts, providing voice recording, voice production, and can supply professional voice talent. In addition to servicing our commercial clients we also cater to the needs of the acting community, producing voice over demos. Take advantage of one of our voice over demo packages designed to fit your budget and offer you great value for your money.
5. Audiobook Production: A great audiobook captures the audience from the word “Go”, drawing them in all the way to the end in one sitting. A good script requires great narration. A great narration requires complimentary and ambient production to compliment the dialogue. We create audiobooks that captures the spirit, quality and character of your words so that its message will have a lasting effect on the listening audience. We specialize in audiobooks and audio textbooks for all levels of learning, including: K-12, undergraduate and graduate markets.
