FAQ
What does this gig include?
This gig includes professional mastering for finished mono or stereo mixes. I optimize tonal balance, dynamics, loudness and translation while preserving the character of the original mix.
Does this gig include mixing or only mastering?
This is a mastering service, not a mixing service. I work from your finished mono or stereo mix. Editing, vocal tuning, timing correction and changes to individual tracks are not included.
What files should I send?
Please send your final mix as a WAV or AIFF file, preferably 24-bit, with no clipping. Avoid master-bus limiting unless it is an intentional part of the sound. Reference tracks are welcome.
Do you offer a free mastering preview?
Yes, for suitable projects I can provide a short mastering preview before you order, so you can hear how your mix responds to my process. Full masters are delivered only through paid orders.
Do you offer discounts for EPs or albums?
Yes. If you need to master an EP, album or several songs, contact me before ordering. I can prepare a discounted custom offer when appropriate.
Can you prepare DDP files for CD manufacturing?
Yes. I can prepare a DDP image for CD manufacturing, including track order, pauses and the required release information. Please contact me before ordering this service.
Can you prepare masters for vinyl?
Yes. I can prepare vinyl-ready masters. Requirements may vary with side length, track order and the cutting engineer or pressing plant, including level, low-end/stereo control and file/side layout. Please contact me before ordering..
Can you help with album sequencing?
Yes. I can review the flow, contrast and overall journey of an EP or album and suggest a track order. This is available on request, usually through a custom offer.
Can you fix problems in my mix?
Some overall tonal, dynamic or loudness issues can be improved in mastering, but problems involving individual instruments or vocals usually require mix changes. I will tell you honestly if a new mix is needed.
How long does mastering usually take?
Standard delivery depends on the selected order, but mastering one song usually takes a few days. EPs, albums, DDP files, vinyl-ready masters or sequencing work may require a custom delivery time.
