Our Mastering Procedures

  Printer Friendly Version

The Reference CD

he reference CD should be of a group or style of music that you like or sound similar to, or like the way it sounds. This will give us an idea of how you want your finished project to sound. So if you're a heavy metal band, don't send in a classical CD! The style of music does not necessarily have to be the same just as long as you like the sonic quality of the reference CD that should be fine.

The Proof CD

The proof CD will be exactly the same as a mastered CD except for shortened versions with occasional test tones placed in each song. This way the test CD cannot be used as a master.

Basic Mastering Rates

The basic mastering includes processes like EQ, compression, limiting, loudness, enhancing, etc. Our Basic Mastering Rates are only $60.00 per song, or $400.00 for a full album (8 - 15 songs).

The format to send me can be a MP3, a Wave File, CD or cassette. However, the BEST is:
CD 16 or 24 bit .wav files (CD-R or CD-RW)
16 or 24 bit .aiff files (CD-R or CD-RW)

More about acceptable formats.

You must send me your address along with the Demo so I know where to send CD plus shipping charges.
