We have prioritized flexibility in our services, offering three distinct products:
When booking a mastering session, it is essential that you have a track previously mixed by yourself or by a professional. This service is designed for refining your mix and enhancing the sonics of your work in order to receive a stereo WAV file that is compatible with all streaming platforms.
For a mixing session, your multitracks will be mixed into a stereo file or stereo stems based on your specific needs. With this service, you will then need to master your song. This option is ideal if you already have a trusted mastering engineer or if you prefer to have your mix assessed by a separate set of ears.
Alternatively, our Mixing & Mastering combined package offers a streamlined and comprehensive experience. By choosing this option, you will receive streaming-ready WAV files mixed and mastered in our state-of-the-art facility using commercial-grade gear.
Furthermore, we provide four additional extras to further personalize and enhance you experience.
We do not retain any royalties when providing mixing and mastering services. You will have complete ownership of your work, and we will maintain a backup for a period of six months exclusively for recall purposes. This will allow you to request instrumental versions, acapellas, or the mix and masters in the event of loss.
Booking our online mixing and mastering services is quite simple:
1. Export stems from your DAW and take note of BPM and key of your song if possible.
2. Upload your zipped files to a cloud storage service.
3. Contact us via email to book a call with a member of our staff.
First, export your demo mix, this will be the initial reference for us to mix and master your track. The stems must then be exported from your DAW. We have the following video manuals.
Before uploading, double-check your audio files. Reload them into a new Session/Project, making sure they are in the proper order and length. Finally, zip the files.
Only upon request. Although tuning vocals or instruments is an integral part of the production process, it is highly subjective and depends on the preferences of the producer and artist. However, we do provide these services as additional options, including vocal alignment and instrument timing editing. To accomplish this, we utilize cutting-edge technology such as Autotune, Melodyne, Vocalign, Revoice, and iZotope RX, among others.
All of our mixes are delivered with a -6dB headroom to optimize subsequent mastering. If you opt for our mixing service alone, please note that mastering is essential to achieve a competitive loudness on all streaming platforms.
Mixing and mastering can significantly improve the quality of your music, elevating its sound. However, it is important to note that this process does not alter the original sound or arrangement. Instead, it refines and polishes the existing production, performance, and arrangement, resulting in an even more exceptional final product.
