Mastering

Finish with confidence;
stem and stereo mastering.   

Mastering is the crucial final stage in music production where the audio is polished and prepared for distribution by combining subtle sonic enhancements with potential corrective treatment. This isn't just about "making it loud". It's about understanding the intentions of the artist to best harness the narrative of the music and emphasize the desired emotional impact.
 

It does get pretty nerdy though. Industry standards for loudness and tone vary from style to style and platform to platform.  I combine technical application with creative sensibility when mastering different genres for various platforms and playback systems. All of this occurs in open and direct communication.

Does it matter? No, and Yes. Like most modern production studios, we are equipped with a wide selection of state of the art digital processors (plugins). These software based processors have become crucial in modern audio production. Although these tools are indispensable, there is a reason why so many are modelled after real analog hardware. In my humble opinion, these processors offer a level of quality currently unmatched digitally. But, more importantly, they are inspiring to work with - creating better results, faster.

Mixing

Hear what's in your head;
production, mixing and recording.

 As much as mixing is a technical service, it equally defines the creation itself. Every step of the production will dictate the possibilities and potential of the mix. And every detail in the mix will help emphasize the intentions, emotions and narrative of the music.

​

As a fellow artist, I approach this process with tact and respect. Creating a  friendly and personal creative space allows the communication to flow freely for the better of the project; this is of the highest priority. We need to know each other to truly understand each other. We need to understand each other to create your music the way you imagine it.

  • Dedicated creative team member

  • Unlimited revisions

  • Mastering included with all mixes           

  • Creative sensibility

  • Extensive expertise

  • Analog and digital tools

  • In-house recording available

Together, we can dig into the vision of the project to define the appropriate actionable direction.

As a creative producer, my role can have many facets. Whether its full scale "A to Z" production or just simply mixing already recorded and arranged material.

From getting funded, to finding the right studio to record. Learning about the project's goals, vision, and limitations is the first step. Depending on the scale and needs of the project, that could even mean hiring other collaborators for recording, mixing or mastering
