Mastering, the black voodoo of the audio industry. Does anyone other than the mastering engineers understand it?

Is it necessary? "Can't I just normalize everything on my PC and it's mastered?" Uh....No !!! Mastering is the final step of production before your CD goes to duplication. It is the over all feel of your CD. Levels are matched and brought up to the highest point before distortion, EQ is applied, if needed, to make each song flow from one to another, and order/spacing is applied in the mastering stage. There are no real rules, just another set of ears on your CD that can fix consistency problems before duplication.

The Mix Studio has mastered hundreds of projects in Dallas - Ft. Worth as well as around the world.  Our control room was designed to offer "radio ready" masters. We are not simply using the Waves L2 plug in and calling your project mastered. We use industry standard mastering equipment and techniques to ensure your master will stand toe to toe with anything that has been commercially produced in the past ten years. We stand behind our mastering 100%. You will not be disappointed when a DJ finally decides to give your music a spin in the club and it doesn't sound as good as the lst song played.... It will.

 

Still not sure of what mastering studio to use? Give us a call, send us a song to master, and if you love it, pay us, if not, no hard feelings! FYI - Every song we have done a test mastering job on has been paid for with the person sending the song becoming a long time client! You have nothing to loose and a great sound to gain by letting us show you what we can do for your sound.... FREE!
