The studio offers online professional online mastering and mixing for clients across Europe and worldwide. We are a recording studio specialized in mixing and mastering. As we moved in Spain from Canada two years ago, we're happy to offer affordable online mixing and mastering for European artists.
The most important thing to know is that there is no major difference between online mixing and mastering, or if you are here in the studio. The reality is that most of the clients are asking for revisions after they hear the song in different systems at home, systems they are familiar with, not when they pick up the mix or master at the studio. They usually don’t know how the sound translates to outside world, as they are not used to the studio acoustic environment.
So, basically, you - the client- must provide the tracks (for mixing) or the stereo file (for mastering), and then receive the final product. Once the client receives it, he listens, and if he feels that there is a need for some modifications, we do them. For both - mixing and mastering - the price includes three revisions if required.
Tell us as much as you can about your project, as this helps us to understand your vision.
The number of tracks (for mixing), what are you looking for (send us some song references in the vein of what you are looking for);
Try to define the general feeling you expect the song to convey;
A description of what you expect to hear (details like what you feel should be the focus of the song and the principal elements, certain effects you would like to hear, your idea about how the song follows or not an ascending line, some of your expectations- like you would like to improve on the sound of the kick or snare or bass, in case you feel that some of the recorded tracks are weak).
Specify the key of the song and the tempo - bpm; let us know if they change during the song and where exactly. More info in FAQ about this
Think of how you would like the vocals and let us know; beside pitch correction (if required) and other editing functions, I would like to know what do you feel is missing or what you think is the strength of it, your preference of a more up-front vocal or rather integrated with the rest of instruments (of course, it depends also on the style of song).
Let us know if the song purpose is commercial, or it is to showcase a vocal, a lead instrument or, in case of songwriters, who do you have in mind to sell the song to.
If you plan to mix with us, and master with another mastering engineer, let us know, and we will provide aside with the main mix a vocal up and vocal down, a trax, and vocals acapella. And, eventually a clean mix (if there is objectionable language).
For mastering, let us know what is it for: vinyl, CD, for internet distribution and streaming. They are different. As far as radio goes, there is no need for a radio master; for radio an edited version of the master will suffice, as radio favours songs up to three minutes.
