I will mix and master your track to a release-ready standard

About this gig

I will mix and master your track to a release-ready standard — clean, balanced, loud enough for streaming, and ready to upload the day you get it back.

You've spent hours writing, recording, and producing your song. Now it needs a final stage that turns a rough collection of stems into a cohesive, professional record that holds up next to commercial releases on Spotify, Apple Music, and the radio. That's exactly what this service does: I take your raw multitrack session, mix every element so it sits right, then master the final stereo file so it translates on phones, laptops, car speakers, earbuds, and club systems alike.

What you get

  • A full mix of your song from your individual stems or tracks — level balancing, panning, EQ, compression, de-essing, automation, and the glue that makes parts feel like one performance instead of separate recordings.
  • A master of the final mix — tonal shaping, stereo width, dynamics control, and loudness brought up to a competitive, release-ready level without crushing the life out of it.
  • The mastered stereo WAV (24-bit, your project's sample rate) ready for distribution.
  • A streaming-optimized version targeted to platform loudness so your track doesn't get turned down or distorted by Spotify/Apple normalization.
  • An MP3 (320 kbps) for quick sharing, previews, and demos.
  • Revisions so we dial in the exact sound you're hearing in your head (count depends on your plan).
  • Clear, plain-English notes on what I did and any issues I found in the source recordings, so you learn something for next time.

Every plan delivers a finished, ready-to-upload track. The tiers differ in how much hands-on work your material needs — pick Basic if your mix is already done, Standard for a typical full song, and Premium for busy arrangements, layered vocals, or tracks where you want the most attention to detail.

How it works

  1. You place your order and send me your files. For a mix, export each track/stem as WAV or AIFF, same length, all starting at bar one (consistent start point). For mastering only, send your final stereo mix with about 3–6 dB of headroom and no limiter on the master bus.
  2. I review your material and send you a quick note confirming scope, the vibe you're after, and any reference tracks you want me to match. If anything's missing or a recording has a problem I can't fix invisibly, I'll flag it before I start.
  3. I mix (Standard/Premium) — balancing, carving space with EQ, controlling dynamics, shaping tone, adding depth, and automating the song so it moves and breathes from intro to outro.
  4. I master the approved mix — final tonal balance, width, and loudness so the track is competitive and consistent across playback systems.
  5. I deliver a preview for your feedback. You tell me what to push, pull back, brighten, or warm up.
  6. I revise within your plan's allowance until it's right.
  7. You receive the final files — mastered WAV, streaming version, and 320 kbps MP3 — ready to send to your distributor.

Why choose this

  • Real translation, not just loudness. I check the master on multiple systems so it sounds right on the cheap earbuds your listeners actually use, not only on studio monitors.
  • Genre-aware decisions. Hip-hop, pop, rock, EDM, acoustic, R&B, and singer-songwriter material all need different treatment. Send a reference and I'll aim for that target.
  • Honesty about your source. If a take is clipped, noisy, or off-pitch beyond repair, I'll tell you straight rather than pretend processing can fix everything.
  • You stay in control. Revisions exist so the final reflects your taste, not just mine.
  • Clean, distributor-ready deliverables. Correct formats, correct loudness, no surprises when you upload.

Who it's for / use cases

  • The independent artist with a song recorded at home who wants it to compete with major-label releases on streaming.
  • The bedroom producer who can write and arrange but knows the mix isn't translating outside their headphones.
  • The band that tracked a song at a small studio and needs a polished final master for an EP or single.
  • The rapper or vocalist who bought a beat, recorded vocals, and needs everything blended into one finished record.
  • The content creator or sync-hopeful who needs a clean, loud, professional master for a release, playlist pitch, or licensing submission.
  • The songwriter preparing a demo that needs to sound credible in front of labels, publishers, or collaborators.

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between mixing and mastering? Mixing is balancing all the individual tracks of your song — vocals, drums, bass, guitars, synths — into one cohesive stereo mix. Mastering is the final polish on that finished mix: tone, width, and loudness so it's consistent and competitive across every playback system. Standard and Premium include both; Basic is mastering only.

Q: How should I send my files? For a full mix, export every track as a separate WAV or AIFF, all the same length and starting at the exact same point (bar one). For mastering only, bounce your final mix to a single stereo WAV with a few dB of headroom and no limiter on the master bus.

Q: Can you match a reference track? Yes, and I encourage it. Send me one or two commercial songs whose sound you love and I'll use them as a target for tone, loudness, and overall feel.

Q: Will my track be loud enough for Spotify and Apple Music? Yes. I deliver a streaming-optimized version aimed at platform loudness targets so your song stays punchy and isn't turned down or distorted by normalization, plus a full-resolution master for distribution.

Q: Can you fix problems in my recording? I can improve a lot — taming harshness, reducing minor noise, evening out levels, light timing and pitch work on the higher tiers. But I can't invisibly fix heavy clipping, bad room sound, or distorted takes. I'll always tell you honestly what's fixable before I start.

Q: How many revisions do I get? Basic includes 2, Standard includes 3, and Premium includes unlimited revisions within the agreed scope. Revisions cover adjustments to the work I delivered — new song versions or added instruments are a separate project.

Q: What files will I receive? A mastered stereo WAV at 24-bit, a streaming-loudness version, and a 320 kbps MP3. Premium also includes grouped stem masters on request.

Q: Can I get stems back? Premium includes grouped stem masters (for example, drums, bass, music, vocals) so you have flexibility for live performance, remixes, or sync. Just ask when you order.

    Solid mix and master, the drums punch a lot harder now. Took one revision to get the vocal level where I wanted it but the end result is release ready.

    Quick turnaround and the track came back sounding professional and ready to release. Will definitely send my next song here.

    Sent over a rough recording of my band and got back a full mix and master that sounds like it belongs on Spotify. The vocals finally sit right and the low end is so much tighter.

    The master came back nice and polished but the first mix had my guitars buried, so it took a couple of back-and-forths to fix. Got there in the end.

  • @jackq

    The mastered version is loud and clean without any of that squashed feeling I was worried about. Super happy with how the final track turned out.

    Honestly blown away. My demo sounded muddy and the version I got back is wide, balanced and ready to upload.
