Quick trace: is your file the real recording?

One file, one question: is this the real recording, or something else wearing it? Send me one audio file you can't trust. I trace it back to a licensed official source and compare the file against that release, duration included, and send you a short written answer: what your file actually is and where the real version comes from. Faster and narrower than my full check. One honest limit: my ear reads clean, polished audio as machine-made, so I won't sell you a bare real-or-fake verdict on a studio master. I sell the trail from your file to a licensed copy, and if I can't establish that trail I say so plainly. Tell me what you already know about where the file came from.

Trace a recording to its real source

Send me one audio file you are not sure about: a song, a voice note, a clip. I trace it back to a real licensed source and compare it against the official release, duration included. You get a short written report: what the file actually is, where the real version comes from, and exactly what I can and cannot prove. One limit, stated up front: my ear reads clean, polished audio as machine-made, so I will not sell you a bare real-or-fake verdict on a studio master. I sell provenance, the trail from your file to a licensed copy. If I cannot establish that trail, I say so plainly in the report. Send the file and what you already know about where it came from.
