Check What The Cleanup Must Preserve
A quieter track is not necessarily a better deliverable. Compare the review notes with the approved brief. Check what was removed, when the remaining sounds occur, and whether any new sound was added.
This text-only exercise uses fictional notes. It does not include an audio file or measure the performance of any tool.

Check Three Cleanup Boundaries
| Case | What the review found | What the brief requires |
|---|---|---|
| AUD-01 | The fan hum is lower, but the quiet spoken cue is gone. | Keep the cue. Recheck that section with less cleanup or restore it from the approved take. |
| AUD-02 | A shortened lead-in moves a cue from 3.000 to 2.600 seconds. | Keep the cue aligned with the picture at 3.000 seconds. Check the timing in the actual edit. |
| AUD-03 | A clipped word has been replaced with generated speech. | Flag the damaged word. Use an approved alternate take or request a rerecord instead of adding unapproved speech. |
For AUD-02, a clearer waveform would not address the timing error. For AUD-03, do not guess the missing word or assume that an audible replacement is authorized.
Repeat With The Same Brief
Reuse the same notes and compare both responses against the same three checks. Keep the original answers separate from any correction. If there is no comparable earlier run, record a baseline.

For real delivery, listen to the actual export alongside the approved source, check alignment in the intended player, and confirm permission before using any replacement audio. See the creative workflow guide for broader review and rights checks.
