FAQ

 

Can i get a sample mastering?

Of course. Just send us a track of your choice. We will master it and send you a sample of the finished master, so you can listen to it on different playback devices.

What can we do if i'm not completely satisfied with the sound?

Describe in detail what you dont like about the sound and what you would like to be changed. We will work on a new version which will certainly suit your taste. There will be no additional charges. Satisfied customers are vitally important.

How can i give you an understanding of my idea of the sound?

It is an advantage if you send along a reference track of a commercially succesful artist, which reflects your idea of the sound. In addition to this it is helpful for mixing process if you describe your idea of the sound as detailed as possible and send it along as a Text- or PDF document.
