Stereo Mastering

 

 

 

Stereo mastering is the final process before a song is released to the public. This is where levels are balanced, frequencies receive finishing touches, and any other problems with the mix are ironed-out. Files submitted for mastering should be in the highest resolution available, and generally in .WAV or .AIF format. Additionally, for the best possible masters, we recommend removing any pre-mastering processing such as limiting, and keeping the highest peak-level of each song at -3dB or less. This allow us enough headroom to best sculpt the dynamics and over-all sound of your songs. Finished songs are delivered as downloadable Redbook Standard WAV files.

Stem Mastering

In addition to our Stereo mastering service we also offer Stem mastering for clients who want our mastering engineers to have more control during the mastering process. For the majority of projects stereo mastering is the optimum service, however mastering from Stems allows us to dive in deeper to the mix and correct potential frequency and level problems. Read more about stem mastering.
