Translation of your music from real-world formats & environments is the key.

 

It's quite easy to get a song to sound good on one set of speakers, but

having it sound great everywhere can be a challenge.

One of our specialities is achieving just this... from the car to the club, to your iPod or home hi-fi, to the radio or TV, and everything in-between.

Each mastering session is very unique, knowing what equipment and processes to use, and sometimes more importantly, what and when not to use is the key to a world-class result. This can, and does include...

Every piece of equipment in this space is specialised and tailored for the engineer, with painstaking lengths undertaken to ensure that every element is the absolute best solution. This, along with an acoustically designed and dedicated listening environment allows results that are simply not possible in a normal studio.

Mastering is your chance to listen to your music under an "audio microscope" and with the presence of not only a skilled, but an objective engineer. Someone that can see the bigger picture and help to mould the project into its best possible form.

Verification ; Does Your Mix Translate?

 - Tone  /  Harmonic  Enrichment,  Equalisation,  Dynamic  Shaping,  Stereo  Enhancement,  Noise  Removal,  Levelling  & Sequencing;  all the way through to the technical preparation and production of a checked and verified Master CD or DDP

Mastering is the final stage of the music production chain.  After the recording or creation and subsequent mixing of music is performed, we commence our craft.  Mastering prepares music for distribution to the public via various platforms.  Typically tailored for the mediums of CD, Vinyl, Television, Radio and the Digital space.
