Mastering: What is included?
*Equalization is used, if necessary, to correct or enhance the frequency balance. When done correctly, the music will sound good on many different systems.
*Compression may be applied to increase overall average level and make the music sound punchier, fatter, or warmer. Many options are available, including multi-band and tube compression.
*During mastering, the relative level of each song is adjusted, and the overall volume is increased to competitive levels using digital limiters.
*Mastering also includes editing heads and tails of songs, placing them in the correct order, and setting the space between songs. Clicks, pops and other unwanted noises are removed, and fade-ins and fade-outs are optimized.
Cris Burns offers mastering at $25 dollars per song. Client feedback is welcomed, and Cris will redo the master or do “touch-ups” until the customer is satisfied.
Additional editing, restoration, and extreme or intensive mastering solutions at the client’s request are billed at $50 per hour. Analog formats are welcome, but there may be an additional charge.
