HUMAN NOT AUTOMATED
People often ask what a mastering engineer's most important tool is -- and it's not equipment.
It's trust.
I understand how difficult it is for many artists to let a complete stranger work on their tracks.
I've been in that very same position.
There's a bond of trust created when an artist gives you their tracks to work on
- a bond that I take very seriously.
I'll communicate with you every step of the way, listen to your feedback, and work together to help shape your tracks to meet your vision.
I try to bring the same attention to detail to your project as I would for one of my own.
I use my years of experience to listen for the little things and improvements that no automated mastering service can - your music is human expression, and it takes a human listening to properly master.
- - Highest-quality analog equipment
- - Critical listening environment tailored for mastering work
- - Friendly personalized customer service
- - Quick turnaround times
- - No presets - every project gets the individual attention it needs
- - Apple Digital Masters Certified
