Production (Song Writing):
I will listen to your current demo's and give you notes on how to make your music sound louder and cleaner before Mastering. I have a detailed library of notes I will share with you. They are full of helpful tips like understanding which frequencies you should boost and ones you can remove to clean up the mix, as well as how to set up your studio for maximum efficiency. For beginners, this is more then enough information to keep you creating high quality music for years.
Rates: $5/Song (2 Song minimum to unlock the library of notes)

 It gets to be tedious work trying to find the balance, not only in your mix but also the room you are working in. Are you annoyed every time you listen to your new song on a different sound system and it doesn't sound anything like it did in the studio?! I can help relieve that stress by taking over your mixing problems. Send me the stems and I will give you back a louder and cleaner mix then you ever imagined possible. 
Rates: $25/hr
 Mastering is its own art form all together. The mastering process is an important one. We want to maximize every ounce of volume output so your music bumps as hard as the top Artists do. Getting a solid mix can be tough but the rewards after mastering a song with a good mix is what makes your music stand out above the rest.
  •  I will work with you during this process and allow you to fix mistakes I might uncover in the mastering process. There is no limit on time.
  • If you forgot to turn something on/off I will swap out the song and send you the new master at no extra charge.
Rates: $25/Song


PREPARING YOUR TRACKS FOR MASTERING – IMPORTANT!

– I will always tell you IF something needs adjusting in the mixdown before I start the mastering, you don’t need to ask.

– Listen to the mixdown file start to finish, be sure it is 100% correct before you send it.  Name your mixdown files “Artist Name – Track Name.wav” please.

– Do not send the tracks or the payment until BOTH are ready.  PayPal can take a week to verify bank accounts, start this process before submitting a song for mastering.      VENMO is also accepted.

– I accept WAV and AIFF files at any bit depth and sample rate, but prefer 24bit (or greater) files. Generally using the same samplerate that your DAW was set to works best.

– If possible leave roughly 6dB of headroom for me to work with, and make sure that the “Normalize” and “Dither” options are turned off in your DAW when you render.

– If you used a compressor, limiter, or other dynamics processor on the master channel of the DAW, please send me a version without these as well.

– Once you have prepped your tracks per the above instructions, please email to send the files to me.

– Payment is required up front for all clients. Once I have the payment confirmation, I’ll listen and let you know if I think you should adjust the mixdown before I start. If everything sounds good, I’ll go ahead and start the mastering.
