Global delivery
Built on 10+ years of professional audio experience across games dialogue, broadcast, music, audio post-production and AI audio/data delivery.
Capabilities
Batch dialogue editing to a defined spec: noise and artefact removal, mouth-noise cleanup, consistent levels, clean handles and predictable naming. Ready for implementation, not rework.
Thousands of files handled with the same discipline as one. Timed edits, stems, alternates, region variants and format conversions tracked line by line.
Sample rate, bit depth, loudness, channel layout, naming and metadata checked against your delivery spec — with issues reported clearly instead of silently passed downstream.
Engineering-grade preparation and QC of speech and audio datasets: segmentation, cleanup, consistency passes and spec-driven output for training and evaluation pipelines.
Edit, cleanup, mix support and loudness-compliant delivery for programme, promo and branded content — to broadcaster and platform requirements.
Digital catalogue work at scale: restoration, mastering support, edit variants and consistent multi-format delivery across long release lists.
How we work
Model A
One experienced engineer, inside your workflow.
We work to your naming conventions, tracking sheets, tools and review cycles. Low onboarding overhead, senior judgement from day one.
Model B
You define the workload, spec and deadline.
Candy Pop owns completion. Scope is agreed up front, progress is visible, and delivery arrives QC'd against the agreed specification.
Model C
More hands, one point of contact.
For volume or compressed timelines, Candy Pop coordinates trusted engineers, allocates workload and runs consistency and QC passes across the batch.
Why Candy Pop
Most engagements start at a pressure point — capacity, volume or a date that won't move.
Work
Client names and titles are withheld under confidentiality. Scope described as delivered.
Case 01 / Games
Remote dialogue editing and cleanup across ongoing batches, working to the studio's file protocols and tracking sheets. Included first-pass QC and clear reporting of technical issues found in source material.
Case 02 / Broadcast Music
Large catalogue of tracks prepared as precisely timed edit variants against a strict written brief and delivery spec. Consistency across the batch led to repeat engagement.
Case 03 / AI Audio & Data
Engineering-grade audio QC and processing within a spec-driven delivery workflow, focused on consistency, validation and reliable turnaround across recurring batches.
About
Candy Pop Audio was founded by audio engineer Luke May after 10+ years of professional work spanning games dialogue, broadcast, music, audio post-production and AI/audio-data projects.
It pairs senior hands-on engineering with a trusted network that can expand capacity when a client needs more than one pair of hands — while Candy Pop remains the single point of contact.
