Mastering for $80

I will professionally master your finished mix and prepare it for release, focusing on overall tonal balance, dynamics, loudness, clarity, and consistency.

I work from a DAW-based home studio with professional studio monitoring and headphones, using a dedicated mastering workflow designed to make careful final adjustments without unnecessarily changing the character of your mix.

WHAT'S INCLUDED:
• 1 stereo mix
• Up to 10 minutes of total audio
• Final EQ and tonal balancing
• Compression/dynamic control when appropriate
• Limiting and loudness optimization
• Stereo image adjustments when needed
• Final level and peak checks
• Up to 2 rounds of revisions
• Up to 3 minor changes per revision round
• Final high-resolution WAV master
• Streaming-ready master

MY PROCESS:
1. You send me your final stereo mix, preferably as a high-resolution WAV file, along with any reference tracks or notes.
2. I listen critically to the mix and identify areas that may need adjustment.
3. I make careful tonal, dynamic, stereo, and loudness adjustments.
4. I compare the master against appropriate references.
5. I check the final file for clipping, unwanted distortion, excessive limiting, and other technical issues.
6. I send you the first master for review.
7. I complete the included revisions and deliver the final master.

I approach mastering as the final stage of the production process. The goal is not to completely change your mix, but to bring out its strengths and make the song feel cohesive, polished, and ready for distribution.

If your mix already sounds great and simply needs that final professional polish, this service is designed for you.
