Placing A Mastering Order

What is the final price?

Our price is $100 per song. We charge a maxmium of $1,000, if all songs fit on one 74-minute CD. If any song is over 10 minutes long then it counts as two songs.

Add $10 for shipping, packaging and supplies to the price above.
Add the listed price for any additional services.

Getting the recordings ready for sending

If you have a final CD that a mixing engineer gave you, and you know that you cannot go back and get different versions or make any additional requests, then you can send what you have and disregard the rest of this section.

There are a few things you can do to make sure your final mixes are best prepared for mastering. If you can make requests of your engineer, or if you are a home studio engineer, please read the Preparing Your Audio for Mastering guidelines at the very bottom of this page.
