## Overview

Everything a narrator needs between the booth and delivery. Validate finished chapters against ACX retail-audio requirements, generate a pickup list by proofreading the manuscript against the recording, smooth breaths, choose the best of several takes, punch in corrections without re-recording a whole chapter, and capture scheduled sessions — all processed locally in your browser.

## Tools

- Audio Audiobook ACX Validator: Validate an audiobook chapter or full file against ACX/Audible submission requirements: RMS, peak, noise floor, duration, format, and chapters.
- Audiobook Manuscript Proofreader: Compare narration audio with its manuscript and download a timestamped pickup list for missing, extra, or changed wording.
- Audio Audiobook Room Tone Inserter: Add the required lead-in, lead-out silence, and room tone between audiobook chapters for ACX-compliant submission.
- Audio Breath Control Editor: Detect breaths in speech and naturally crossfade to reduce, remove, or keep them.
- Audio Voiceover Take Selector: Compare multiple recorded takes by noise, clipping, tempo, duration and consistency, then rank them to pick the best.
- Audio Punch In/Out: Replace a segment of audio with another clip
- Audio Recorder: Record audio directly from your microphone with real-time waveform visualization and download options
- Scheduled Audio Recorder: Schedule automatic audio recording with countdown timer and configurable duration
- Audio Clipping Region Exporter: Detect digital clipping and export timecoded flat-top regions for de-clipper repair or editorial notes.
- Audio Profile Setter: Set a specific encoding profile (e.g., AAC-LC, HE-AAC, Opus voice/audio)
