/ The room
A room I trust to tell me the truth.
Hybrid analog chain, precision monitoring, and a room voiced against released masters. What matters is translation: what I hear here is what the record does on club systems, headphones and streaming.
The full signal chain →Your free 60-second test master
Upload your track
One stereo file, plus your email so the project has an owner. WAV or AIFF, 24-bit or 32-bit float, 44.1 to 96 kHz, up to 2 GB. Leave 3 to 6 dB of headroom and no limiter on the mix bus. The upload stays private and costs nothing.
I master 60 seconds
I take the loudest 60 seconds of your track through the hybrid analog chain, the same way I would treat the whole record. Usually within one working day.
Hear it and read the audit
The test master lands in your account next to the measured audit: loudness, true peak, crest, band balance, premaster against master, level-matched on your own track. No payment so far.
Order the full master if you want it
If it sounds right, you order the full track from your project. That order is paid up front by card, then I finish it and the master, audit and invoice land in your account. If it does not convince you, nothing happens.
Upload the premaster.
Your mix file and your email are all I need. Genre, title and a reference help me, but you can leave them out.
