If done well, mastering is the piece of the recording puzzle the listener never thinks about. They just… feel it.

While mixing brings the pieces of a song together, mastering makes the song complete. And as your mastering engineer, I fine-tune each song to make it the best version it can be. If it’s part of an album, I’ll also perfect the transitions between songs and overall vibe to create a cohesive album that just feels right.

My approach is to listen. I listen to the artist’s vision, I listen to the mixed record, and I listen to find where there might be a disconnect. Then, I get to work.

A lot of folks I work with don’t end up needing revisions because I make sure I understand exactly what you’re going for upfront. I take the time to get to know you and the music so the mastered record is typically pretty close to final. Therefore, if you have a revision idea I am more than happy to tweak the master.

You’ll receive:
-16-bit 44.1kHz files
-24-bit 44.1kHz files
-DDP 2.0 image file (if requested)
-PQ Sheet
-If there is another format or something else you require, just ask!
