I’m Luke Batterbury, an Australian audio engineer, music producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist with 20+ years of professional experience across recording, production, and audio post-production. I work confidently with Pro Tools and Logic Pro, handling everything from fast music editing and mixing to detailed dialogue and vocal cleanup for TV, film, commercials, and digital media. I’m especially focused on dialogue/audio editing, restoration, and dialogue-to-picture workflows—using tools like iZotope RX, Melodyne, Synchro Arts Revoice Pro, and VocAlign, plus spectral editing in Steinberg SpectraLayers when recordings need extra care. Alongside post-production, I also create original music and perform on sessions, and I’ve contributed to international product work with Native Instruments and professional releases as a co-writer/producer.
