Master, Master!
-
Mastering is the final process before the song is released to the world! In mastering, we take the mix file and process it in a way that makes it “proper for consume”.
This usually includes making the track louder, controlling the dynamics, balancing with eq, making it wider/narrower, brighter/darker, etc.
-
You’ll get your song(s) in any file needed. We always deliver a high quality wav file (96kHz, 24bit), but formats for cd, video, etc., may be sent too. We also deliver ddp files for upon request.
-
Just like in mixing, we don’t like to limit on revisions and prefer to work in a way that takes good sense into account. Two or three revisions is usually pretty standard.
Just make sure to let us know everything you need for the song in a clean and organised manner and state everything you need us to change in the revisions, so we can do them all at once!
-
We mainly need the songs in the highest quality wav file available. If they were mixed at the studio, there’s no need to worry about that.
Reference tracks and any description of things you want us to do, helps a lot too! Other than that, we need the names of the songs, and their order. If we’re mastering for vinyl, we also need to know which songs are on side A and B.
-
Like in mixing, we do these versions free or charge. Just make sure to let us know in advance.
-
Yes! As much as we love both mixing and mastering, we believe that it should be done by two different people. The reason behind this is that after working and hearing the same song for a while, our brain begins to mask some flaws.
Therefore, a new set of ears in the mastering stage can really improve the final result. We still do both of them here, but rest assured it will be done by a different, trustworthy engineer.
