New! our Profile on soundBetter. Also visible on AudioHunt, we offer select services such as re-amping, ASP and mastering using a range of equipment.  Check the menu.

As monitors, we use Genelec 1030A speakers and Tannoy Precision monitors that go up to 50000Hz, we care for this because a signal’s higher harmonics can matter especially to create a tangible stereo perception.
Rupert Neve talks about the body being unable to relax when the HF content is cutoff beyond 20KHz so we respect the sound well beyond the perceived human hearing range..

Mastering is an Artform, requiring creativity and tools as the making of the music does, but with the aim to always imagine what the Artist wants the outcome to sound like in his mind.

We can master your song to 1/4inch at 15ips Mastering tape using a Studer A-807 through our outboard and then export to digital, this way you can keep a master tape reference for further format conversion (no dithering or other sound problems)

Final CD/WAV mastering is done with SonicStudio SoundBlade HD on Mac Pro. A Benchmark Digital Audio Workstation For Mastering, Restoration, Recording & Mixing. • Sonic Studio Engine (SSE) is trusted by mastering engineers worldwide for its transparent sound.

The digital domain is looked after by two Metric Halo ULN-2 Interface +DSP which allow extremely accurate capture and reproduction of sound, which matters when you leave the digital domain to go thru to analogue and back to the computer. Our analogue mastering service combines treatment with the legendary Fairman TSC Opto Valve Stereo Compressor/Limiter, two linked Legendary NEVE 2254/R Compressor/Limiter and Sonnox/Pulteq Eq (Software), Lexicon Mastering Tools as well as the Metric Halo +DSP tools such as M/S and Parallel Compression.

As a Label, we can also release or help your distribute your music yourself on various platforms (eg: itunes, bandcamp, youtube..).

As part of the Mastering we can add your work to our online label and create your Custom ISRC code with our SCPP/IFPI membership and insert it into your MASTER. This way your music will be trackable online and you can then get paid when your song/video gets played on all the platforms.

As long as we’re not too busy, we will be happy to do a test master of one of your tracks to show you what we can do for your music.

Should I Attend The Mastering Session

Having the artist attend the session can often be useful for both parties, and make for effective and fast communication. However, it is not absolutely essential that the artist attends the session and it is commonplace that mastering sessions and communications are dealt with via FTP (file transfer protocol) and email/telephone respectively.

As mentioned, it is not essential that artist attends the mastering session. There are certain things that should be provided to the mastering engineer, however:

This is the song order of your album. There are many possible orders and this should be decided and given to the mastering engineer before the session.

 – any questions and concerns you may have. For example, perhaps you feel one song is too quiet, or the vocal is not quite bright enough, or you want a warm and darker master. Let the mastering engineer know this, as he will otherwise take lead from what he is hearing and assume that it is the creative intention of the artist and producer.
