Why is online mastering so cheap compared to studio time?

Don't worry, with a highly trained engineer at the helm you don't need to panic - your demos are in safe hands. The costs are kept low by not offering all the fancy, unneeded extras that you get in high end mastering studios, nor do you have to sit through hours of listening to the same 10 second section of track while the dynamics are being tweaked!


What if I don't like the results?

We are so confident that you will be more than happy with the final master that we don't ask for a penny from you until you have heard the results. Take a look at our 'try before you buy' offer.

Obviously we aim to please from the outset. Communication is the key here, the more we know what you want it to sound like the better. This can be done by e-mail, post or on the telephone.
