Quality of Audio Editing & Restoration Services
Audio files are sent to us in varying stages of quality. Joycebomb, LLC. prides itself on editing and restoring each audio file to the best possible level of enhancement. With that being said, some audio files may be too distorted for full and total repair.
If after receiving the Client’s audio we feel it is not fully salvageable, we will advise the Client before the start of service. If the Client grants approval to continue and makes a payment, we will apply all of our commercial-grade resources to repairing the audio to the best of our ability.
Once payment is made, our Refund policy applies, regardless of the audio’s end result.
