Simplified, Accessible, and Honest Mastering Solutions

About Our Mastering Approach

Mastering is the final, crucial step in the production process—where subtle tweaks can elevate a track to professional standards. The results achievable in a master are inherently tied to the quality of the mix, with access to the individual elements of a song we can achieve exceptional results.

Note: For tracks mixed elsewhere, the potential improvements through mastering will be directly tied to the mix quality. I'm always happy to provide an honest assessment of what can be achieved with your specific track.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between mixing and mastering?

Mixing balances individual tracks within a song, while mastering optimizes the final stereo mix for consistent playback across all platforms and devices.

Do I need mastering if my mix sounds good?

Yes. Even great mixes benefit from mastering to ensure proper loudness for streaming platforms, enhance stereo imaging, and maintain consistency across an album or EP.

What should I provide for mastering?

Send your final stereo mix as a WAV file with at least 3-6dB of headroom. Include reference tracks and any specific loudness or stylistic preferences.

How many revisions do I get?

While mastering typically requires fewer revisions than mixing, I offer flexibility to ensure you're completely satisfied with the final result.

What's your mastering process?

I use a combination of analog-modeled and digital tools to enhance dynamics, adjust frequency balance, and optimize loudness while preserving the mix's integrity.
