What is the difference between mixing and mastering?

Mixing is basically tinkering with everything you have recorded to complete your songs. We'll do things like drop in effects, adjust fader, EQ your tracks and so on. Think of mixing as putting the puzzle together. We're putting together the parts of what you have recorded, making sure everything hangs together right, and putting some finishing touches on things. When we're done mixing your songs, you should be pleased with the way the song sounds and feel confident that you don't need to add anything musically.

Mastering is the process of taking a recording and enhancing it to its fullest potential. It’s the fine-tuning that makes your track sound as “big” and as “clear” as possible without compromising the original feel of the song. This also makes the album, as a whole, sound unified.When you send us your audio for mastering services, your tracks will be analyzed by an experienced mastering engineer in one of our acoustically treated mastering studio. After we get an overall impression of the existing sound balance, your project is then professionally mastered using an appropriate chain of top drawer analog and digital mastering tools.

Why should I have my audio mastered?

Mastering is the final step in bringing your recording to its optimum potential. It gives your music the professional commercial quality necessary to compete nationally and globally. No matter if your audio is planned for radio, CD/cassette duplication, CD Rom/ DVD authoring or publishing to the world wide web, it must be mastered to take full advantage of the media in which it is to be released.

Why does my project needs fresh ears?

After working on countless songs and albums, mastering engineers develop an acute sense of sonic and musical knowledge that is key to successful mastering. It’s also a huge plus that the mastering engineer wasn't there when you recorded and mixed your album. Hearing your songs for the first time, a fresh pair of ears can offer truly objective advice.
