Mixing can be done with or without the musicians present, depending on your personal preference.

Mastering

Mastering is the process of adding volume, kick and sparkle to your music. A mastered track will compare favourably to commercial CDs in terms of volume and EQ. Unmastered music will sound quiet, limp and unfinished in comparison. We therefore strongly recommend you have your music mastered with us.

Mastering is done separately (usually within a few weeks) and is charged "by the song".

Our usual mastering rate is between £50 and £75 per song, dependant mostly on the complexity of the song. Mastering fees are always best discussed case by case.

We are hugely competitive with mastering as we perform this "in house". Ask for a demo of unmastered material against the mastered tracks to hear the huge difference made to your music. Our mastering take up rate is nigh on 100%, and for good reason!
