Analog CD Mastering.
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 and a Pro-Sounding CD.

The goal is not to drastically alter the sound, but rather to put the final shine on the track as a whole and bring levels up to industy standards.

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 high end analog or digital audio 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 very high end analog compressors, limiters, tube preamps, etc. The mastered mix is then digitally transferred to CD-R.

Can we give you that Big Label Sound? If your music is recorded good enough, then the answer is Yes! To get a Big Label sound, you must begin with a good recording! When we master your CD it will have more punch, more clarity, even levels and better loudness sounding much more professional.

Turnaround Time is Normally 48 hrs.
