Audio CD Mastering. Audio CD mastering is the process of editing and enhancing audio on high-end equipment to improve the sound and loudness of a CD. It will make the difference between your album sounding like a demo CD, and a Pro-Sounding CD. When you hear a song on radio or a record store CD, you may have noticed that your own music is not as rich and full. This is because ALL commercial CDs are mastered! We master your project using a combination of very high-end analog and digital equipment which will give your music the quality sound it deserves! We start by listening to each song then carefully EQ'ing them so that your music sounds good on many types of players. EQ also brings out finer details adding clarity to the mix. Your songs are then processed Using high end analog compressors, limiters, tube preamps, etc. The mastered mix is then digitally transferred to CD-R. When we master your CD it will have more punch, more clarity, overall level and better loudness. Bottom line it will sound "Much"more professional. best of all, we do it for less! Can we give you that Big Label Sound? If your music is recorded good enough, then I would answer "yes." To get a Big Label sound, you need to start with a good recording! Turnaround Time is Normally 2 days. Mastering Equipment List: Apogee Manley Avalon Focusrite Steinberg FRM Audio DBX Sonic Waves KRK Event
