What Soundtrack Boston does

Soundtrack Boston is a private, full-service audio post-production facility located at 162 Columbus Avenue in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood, operating since at least 1984 as part of the Soundtrack Group network alongside Soundtrack New York, Finish Post Productions, Motion Cyc Studio, and Aircraft Music Library. The company delivers commercial audio post-production, film and television ADR, sound design, and talent payment/casting services, executed across seven dedicated studios (A through G) equipped with industry-standard gear including AVID S6 consoles, Neve and Millennia pre-amps, and a broad microphone inventory. Its engineering team holds credits on Academy Award- and franchise-tier productions (CODA, Black Panther 2, Jurassic World: Domination, Killing Eve) and has been recognized with Emmy, Clio, and Hatch awards.

The business operates as a B2B professional services firm targeting national and regional advertising agencies, film/TV productions, and production studios requiring voice casting. Revenue is generated through project-based, quote-driven fees for studio time, engineering services, and bundled talent casting/payment processing, with no publicly disclosed pricing. Go-to-market is direct enterprise sales — clients engage via phone (617-303-7500) or email — supplemented by referrals from an extensive logo list that spans entertainment (HBO Max, Netflix, Amazon, Apple TV, CBS, AMC, BBC, PBS, DreamWorks), insurance (Progressive, Liberty Mutual, MassMutual), financial services (Fidelity, AmeriSave), retail (Home Depot, Subway), automotive (Toyota, Hertz), telecom (Comcast, Cox), and government (US CDC, LMI). Remote ADR kits, Zoom/Source Connect integration, and on-site production offices extend the facility's effective service area to the Continental U.S. and enable hybrid in-studio/remote supervision workflows.

Direct peers

• Formosa Group: Hollywood-based audio post-production and sound design house with deep feature/TV ADR and advertising credentials. Directly comparable in service mix (mix, sound design, ADR) and target clients (major studios, agencies).
• Smart Post Sound: Boutique audio post-production house specializing in film/TV sound design, ADR, and re-recording mixing. Direct peer in service offering and target customers (independent film, streaming series).
• Sound Lounge: Long-standing NYC-based audio post-production facility serving advertising, television, and film clients with sound design, mix, and music services. Closely comparable offering profile to Soundtrack Boston's commercial and broadcast work.
• Soundtrack New York: Sister facility within the same Soundtrack Group network, providing overlapping audio post-production, ADR, and commercial mixing services to advertising agencies and film/TV producers out of New York City. Operationally and commercially near-identical to Soundtrack Boston.
• One Union Recording Studios: San Francisco-based audio post-production and recording facility offering commercial mix, ADR, and sound design. Comparable as a regional, multi-studio post house targeting advertising and film/TV clients.

Broad incumbents

• Todd-AO (Warner Bros. Post Production Services): Long-established audio post-production operation now part of Warner Bros., providing re-recording mixing, ADR, and sound design for film and television. Functionally overlapping service offering but with the backing of a major studio.
• Skywalker Sound: Lucasfilm's premier feature-film sound post-production facility, operating at much larger scale with re-recording mixing, sound design, and ADR for major theatrical releases. Overlaps with Soundtrack Boston's film/TV ADR capability but at a significantly larger scale.
• Technicolor Post (now Streamland/Mikros): Global post-production services provider with significant audio post capacity across picture, sound, and VFX. Overlaps with Soundtrack Boston across the broader audio post-production services market, though operates at substantially larger scale and broader portfolio scope.

Emerging players

• Harbor Picture Company: New York-based post-production facility offering audio mixing, ADR, and finishing services with both in-person and remote capabilities. Comparable to Soundtrack Boston's mix/ADR offering and remote kit pivot, though stronger on the picture-finishing side.

Regional players
