Studio Cayenne

After 30 years of combined experience in Audio Production, Lidwine Hô and Léo Poumey decided to create Studio Cayenne in 2025.

With 10 years of experience as an independent sound engineer on movies, Lidwine has worked at Radio France, France.tv (French public Radio and TV) and Audible. She's specialized in binaural sound, audio drama, and podcast production.

Léo Poumey is a performing and studio musician. He is also a mixer, original soundtrack composer, music arranger, and podcast producer.

They both have expertise in consulting and training.

They set up their studio on a floor exclusively dedicated to audio in a 1920s house, a stone's throw from the Saint-Ouen flea market and Paris, in a calm and bucolic environment. The neighborhood was formerly called "Cayenne," which gives its name to the studio.

Léo and Lidwine also work with two authors associated with the studio: Anne Lamotte, journalist and podcast creator for public radio France Culture, France Inter, and Nouvelles Écoutes, and Agnès Mathieu-Daudé, writer and museum curator. Her work has been published by prestigious French publishers such as Gallimard, Flammarion, and École des Loisirs.

Studio Cayenne's goal is to work with all creators and producers who are interested in collaborating, tailoring teams to meet the needs of each project thanks to a network of experienced professionals in all areas of audio production.
