Streaming Mastering
Spotify, Tidal, Deezer, YouTube Music…. With so many digital platforms it is important that your masters translate consistently to them all. We employ our full spectrum of audio mastering techniques to your project, carefully analysing and adjusting every track so that they are optimized for all streaming platforms.
Mastering For CD
There is something magical about a CD release. Track levels, spacing and arrangement are all crucial to the perception of the finished album. We offer full DDPi services for CD manufacture to ensure your music will be distributed the way you want it. ISRC codes can be assigned and rights allocated to keep track of your music wherever it is played.
Audio Restoration
There are times we see audio in sub optimal condition that needs some TLC. It could be those crackly recordings from years ago, or a live concert mix with lots of audience and background noise. It doesn't have to be for release, those projects with sentimental value are just as important. Throughout the Audio Restoration process we employ detailed analysis software and a range of digital editing and noise reduction tools to bring your music back to life.
Analog Or Digital ...
... Why Choose?
We use a mixture of carefully chosen Digital and Analog equipment, housed in our acoustically treated mastering room. Extensive research went into the acoustic design, monitoring, digital processing and analog hardware choices to ensure the quality of all mastered tracks.
