FAQ
What is Mastering?
Simply put, mastering is the last creative process in the recording of your music.
The process entails critical listening and making the necessary adjustments to improve, rebalance, correct flaws, edit, and restore your music to its fullest potential.
The mastering engineer will use the best equalizers, compressors, and processing gear designed to bring out the details and sparkle in your mix.
Your final mixes, taken from several sources, different studios, and different engineers, are reviewed and then mastered.
What is Audio Restoration?
Audio restoration is the process of removing artifacts and anomalies to make a recording clearer. With the help of some wonderful technology from Izotope and other companies that specialize in restoration, along with careful equalization we can remove noise, buzzes, crackles, and hums, and we can bring a recording to a much-improved state. Audio restoration can be used for both music as well as forensic audio
What can I do to prepare my mixes for mastering?
* When mixing, try to reference your mixes against source material that you are familiar with, like your favorite CDs or streaming music.
* Apply minimal compression (or none at all) to your 2 track mixes. But in the end, hand us your mix the way you like the sound. Feel is always more important than being technically correct!
* On an analog recorder, you may want to experiment with the level input, as some people enjoy the sound of tape saturation. Be sure to play back the first mixes and make sure they are printed how you wish.
* If you've already tried to master it yourself, or had someone else do it that you weren't happy with, let us know! We want to make it better for you, and it's better if you're honest with us.
* Don’t Rush! Take your time and make sure your mixes are what you want. While mastering can sometimes vastly improve a mix, it can't fix a bad performance or lackluster mix.
* Use Reference tracks to give an idea of what you want.
* Ask questions. Don’t be afraid or intimidated by the process. I am happy to explain the process.

How long does it take to master something?
There is no definitive answer, but an average full music CD consisting of approximately 40-50 minutes of music (10-14 songs) usually can be finished in about 4-5 hours. A single with a few different versions can usually be finished in an hour or less.
