Dear John,
I cannot begin to tell you how proud I am of this project. You have an amazing dynamic sense of sound that has made a great project - brilliant! I love the way you pan certain sound effects to go from the left speaker to the right. Only a true aficionado would appreciate the nuance of this experience.
Thank-you, thank-you for being such a sound editing talent - one that was perfect for my project and funny bone.
With great appreciation,

I had the most wonderful collaborative experience while working with John and Raven Audio Books. This was my first experience with recording and John easily calmed my nerves with his easy-going, yet professional manner and we were able to create an outstanding audio poem book, Of Roots, Shoes and Rhymes. He was accessible, easy to talk and work with and so knowledgeable. He knew exactly the type of music or sound background that was needed for each poem and truly made this project unique and beautiful. I would highly recommend John and feel so fortunate to have his talents so close here in Glendale, Arizona!

Working with John and Raven Audio Books, was a easy, fun, and cooperative experience which resulted in an audio book of which I am immensely proud. the quality of the recording, the care for details, and the respect he showed to the person doing the narration for me as well as the sound of the final product was deeply appreciated. Especially as I live in Denver, and could in no way make this a hands on experience.
I can't recommend Raven Audio Books more highly.

“John lives his beliefs in providing the best service possible and it is reflected in the incredible work he does. I met John as the Owner/Producer at Raven Audio Books, Recording Studio in a group on linkedin. We engaged in a discussion and he contacted me via e-mail with the information I was looking for. He was patient and considerate for almost a year until I was ready to record my book. He directed me to another linkedin connection for production of my book and the result is a masterpiece in audio. Anyone needing to have audio produced in music or reading PLEASE feel free to contact me as I would be happy to talk with you about my wonderful experience with John Mahoney at Raven Audio Books.” Carra Riley, Author
My three recording projects with John Mahoney of RavenPheat Productions have exceeded all expectations. John has patiently guided me through every step of the recording process to set me at ease. His skillful editing of my voice and original background music have ensured that my CD’s have a rich, vibrant quality. All of this for prices which are fair and reasonable. I recommend RavenPheat to everyone and will call on John for all my future recording projects. …. Rev.

I have a unique vantage point to see and experience John’s work. I completed half of my audio book project before my darling husband, Mark, passed away. John waited patiently until I could finish the book. It turned out truly amazing. Because John is creative, professional and cares about “quality” (that hard to define something that rises above the ordinary), he added some sound and music behind some of my spoken words. The consistent response I’ve gotten from people to my audio book is…WOW! AMAZING! John’s ear for detail and willingness to get every sound “right” creates a professional result you can be proud of. Even more, John understands and appreciates the heart and soul necessary to produce excellent products worthy of circulating around the globe, helping, informing and entertaining people. You can’t go wrong working with John.

the lessons learned along the way. A memoir if you will. I did and was very pleased with the book. As time went along I decided that it might be good to have it on a CD. With no idea where to turn for such a project I searched the internet .....And I Now in the winter of my life I thought it a good idea to put on paper some of struck gold. For there among many was someone whose values were very clear to see....RESPECT, INTEGRITY, HONESTY and QUALITY all of which, although not visible are present in the final product. I have felt for many years that nothing happens on this planet randomly. My choice was as I had hoped. The very best one I could have made. Thank you John, for including all of the above, as promised.

John was meticulous and thorough. He did quality work for very reasonable price. I highly recommend his service to anyone seeking to publish a high quality audiobook.

Great job! I loved it. You have brought my book to life. I think my favorite chapter was chapter 9 where you imitated the voice of the guide on the bus. Fantastic!
I appreciated John Mahoney's guidance and professionalism as he went through the process of recording my book. The results were more than I expected and I am thoroughly pleased with my audio book.

"We found John Mahoney's audio services to be both professional and timely. He is gifted with a good ear for sound quality. Just as important, He did what he said he would do, for the exact price he quoted. He was courteous, patient, and ethical in our dealings from start to finish." Sable Creek Press
Working with RavenPheat Productions was a wonderful experience. John listened to my ideas and helped me to fine tune my project. Best of all, the finished recording exceeded my expectations.
