Yes. Add AI Slop Removal ($200 per song): a session musician re-records the part that sounds most generated, usually the lead or the hook, inside your session, and then we mix and master the song. More in our guide: How to make an AI-generated song sound real.
We start once the files are confirmed.
From $133 per song for up to 20 tracks; $168 for 20–40, $242 for 40–60 and $318 for 60–90 tracks. Add-ons are per song. The multi-song discount is applied automatically, and the order page shows the exact total before you pay. Songs longer than 5 minutes cost 50% more.
The multitrack: every channel as its own file, so the kick, snare, bass, keys, lead vocal and each backing vocal arrive separately. A stem is several tracks bounced together, such as all the drums. If stems are all you have, ask in the chat before ordering.
Export each track as a WAV starting at bar 1, at the session’s sample rate, with nothing on the master bus. Export your rough mix too. Video guides for each DAW:
Load the files into an empty session to check they line up, then zip the folder.
Yes, if you have one. It tells us how the parts fit together and which effects belong to the sound. It is a map of the song, not the target: for the sound, we go by your references.
Yes, one or two released songs and a line on what you like in each. In a Complete order the references guide the mix and the tone and loudness of the master. No reference? We will suggest one close to your song.
Six rounds on the order, and you can spend them on the mix or on the master. Most songs need one or two. While your notes are clear we don’t count strictly; we would only quote for more if revisions go in circles, and we would tell you first.
Yes. You get the mix first and send notes until it is right. The master is made from the version you approved, and you can still ask for changes to the master afterwards.
Pop, hip-hop, R&B, rock, metal, country, EDM and more. Pick a genre in the before/after player on this page to hear a mixed and mastered result.
Our office is in Rubí, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely. The same named people work on every record.
Complete is mixed and mastered in the box by default. Add Analog Mastering ($50 per song) and the master goes through our outboard chain. For outboard gear on the mix as well, look at Upgrade Mixing and Mastering.
Yes, with the Dolby Atmos Version add-on ($200 per song): an immersive mix of the same song, delivered alongside the stereo master. More on the Dolby Atmos page.
Music Editing ($50) repairs or replaces weak parts before the mix: re-programmed drums, re-played parts, cleaned edits, tighter timing on guitars and drums. Vocal Rescue ($100) is manual pitch and timing correction of the vocal, note by note, in Melodyne and Auto-Tune.
Mastered for Spotify ($10) is a version of the master tuned to Spotify’s loudness normalization and encoding. Apple Digital Masters ($10) is a master made to Apple’s technical standard for the ADM badge on Apple Music; we are an official Apple Digital Masters provider. You don’t need either for a normal release, since the standard master works on every platform.
Your master goes through our outboard chain, powered by Access Audio, for extra depth and glue on top of the standard master. The chain: Focusrite 315, Fairman TMEQ, Elysia Alpha Compressor, Manley Variable MU, SSL Bus+ and Manley Massive Passive.
Yes. The more songs in one order, the bigger the discount. It is applied automatically, add-ons included, and you see it on the order page. For an album or an EP, put the release date in the notes.

Export the vocal tracks and the instrumental, zip them and upload the zip on the order page. Choose the number of songs and vocal tracks, add your notes and a demo mix, then pay at checkout.
Pitch and timing correction done by hand. An engineer works through each vocal note by note in Melodyne or a similar editor, instead of running it through automatic tuning.
Export each vocal track separately and the instrumental as one file, all from the same start point, plus a demo mix. Before uploading, load the files into an empty session to check they line up and run the full length. Then zip them.
Usually there will be no robotic effect on the voice. But it depends on how out of tone you are.
Yes, that would be perfect! We will get an idea of the correct placement.
No. The demo shows us the arrangement and how the vocals sit. A reference is a released song whose vocal sound you like; send one if you have it.
Six rounds are included. Vocal notes are usually specific (“keep the slide in the second verse”, “tighten the doubles in the hook”), so one or two rounds tend to cover them. If revisions start going in circles, we tell you before quoting anything extra.
Any genre. Rap vocals often need timing work more than pitch; sung pop, R&B and rock usually need both.
The studio is based in Rubí (Barcelona), Spain. Our engineers work remotely from several countries; the same named people handle every record.
Yes: 2% off per song in the order, applied automatically. Ten songs come out 20% cheaper.
Sometimes a song needs background vocals that were never recorded. Session vocalists can record them for you; it is an add-on on the order form, $200 per song.
Sure. Write to us in the live chat or at info@majormixing.com.
Mastering is $79 per song for songs up to 5 minutes; longer songs cost 50% more. Add-ons per song: Stem Mastering $50, Apple Digital Masters $10, Mastered for Spotify $10, Vinyl Mastering $20, Analog Mastering $50. Rush (1 day per song) doubles the price. The order page shows the exact total before you pay.
Please bypass all the processing from the master bus. Make sure, that the peak values are no louder than -6dB. Files should be delivered as a 24 or 32 bit .wav file at their native sample rates.
Yes, if you can. A released song whose sound you like, ideally in your genre, tells us more about loudness and tone than any description. Please don’t use your own demo or rough master as the reference. No reference? We will pick a released track close to your song.
Six rounds, included with every order. We do not count them strictly: if your feedback is clear and we are moving in the right direction, we keep going until it is right. Most projects are finished in one or two rounds. The only time we would quote for extra rounds is when revisions go in circles or arrive without real direction — and we would tell you first.
Any genre, from hip-hop, R&B and pop to rock, metal and electronic. A released reference from your genre helps us set the level and tone.
A release-ready master for each song: a WAV for your distributor by default, or whatever format your release needs. With Vinyl Mastering you also get a separate cut-ready file. We keep your files for one month from the order date.
Our main office is in Rubi, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely from a few different countries. It is the same named people on every record – not a marketplace and not a rotating pool of freelancers.
Mastering is the process of finalization, and preparing the track for distribution. It will definitely help your music sound in industry loudness, equalization curve, etc. In some cases it will help improve your sound, but a mastering engineer can’t fix mixing mistakes. You can choose the Stem Mastering option if you feel that your mix needs help, but you don’t want to change a lot.
Stem mastering is a process where a mastering engineer creates a final master using pre rendered buses as drums, bass, accompaniment, vocals and background vocals.
So in this case mastering engineer has more abilities to fix some mistakes and improve overall sound. However, I would certainly recommend working to get the mix to be as close to finished as possible, rather than adopt the “just fix it in post” attitude.
Mastered for Spotify: the master is tuned for Spotify’s loudness normalisation and encoding, so it doesn’t come out over-compressed once Spotify turns it down to its playback level.
Apple Digital Masters: Apple’s standard for masters delivered at 24-bit and the session’s native sample rate, with enough headroom that the AAC encode doesn’t clip. Choose it if you want the Apple Digital Masters badge on Apple Music. Only an approved Apple mastering house can deliver ADM masters, and Major Mixing is one of them.
Analog Mastering (+$50) runs your master through our outboard chain for extra depth and glue on top of the standard in-the-box master. The chain, powered by Access Audio:
– Focusrite 315
– Fairman TMEQ
– Elysia Alpha Compressor
– Manley Variable MU
– SSL Bus+
– Manley Massive Passive

Bypass all processing on the master bus and keep peaks around -6 dB. Export a 24 or 32-bit WAV at the session’s own sample rate. Do not upsample: Apple asks for the highest native resolution, and converting up adds nothing.
The 24-bit WAV master. That file is the deliverable Apple asks for: your distributor uploads it, and Apple makes the AAC and lossless versions from it.
Six rounds on every order. Most masters are approved after one or two. If revisions start going in circles, we would tell you before quoting anything extra.
No. Any master can be released on Apple Music. Apple Digital Masters adds the badge and a master checked against Apple’s encoder, so the AAC version sounds like the file you approved.
Your distributor flags it when you upload the release. Tell them it is an Apple Digital Master and who mastered it. The exact field depends on the distributor; if you cannot find it, ask their support.
Yes. It is a normal 24-bit WAV and works on every store. If you want a master made with Spotify’s playback in mind, see Mastering for Spotify.
There is no fixed loudness target: we set it by what suits the song and the genre. The true peak follows what the Apple Digital Masters specification requires, so the encode stays clean. Sound Check turns loud songs down on Apple Music anyway, so pushing harder only costs punch.
Yes. Add Stem Mastering on the order form for $50 per song and send stems (drums, bass, music, lead vocal, backing vocals) instead of one stereo file. More on our stem mastering page.
Yes. The order form takes 2% off for every song in the order, so an EP of five songs saves 10%.

You may send us a reference track to show us the sound you like. If there are no reference tracks – no worries, we will pick up something similar to your song.
Six rounds, included with every order. We do not count them strictly: if your feedback is clear and we are moving in the right direction, we keep going until it is right.

We work with any genre. We have a team of mixing engineers, which have a lot of experience in mixing and mastering almost all genres.
Our main office is in Rubi, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely from a few different countries. It is the same named people on every record – not a marketplace and not a rotating pool of freelancers.
We need your demo in order to see the structure of the song, the effects were used. The demo mix CANNOT BE USED as a reference for mixing and mastering.
We accept as references, songs that are relevant to the current industry and have been released on streaming platforms.

Mastering for Spotify is a master tuned to Spotify’s loudness normalization and encoding. Spotify turns most tracks down to about -14 LUFS, so we set the loudness by what the song needs, and the master doesn’t come out over-compressed once Spotify turns it down. On the Mastering for Spotify page it’s $79 per song; with regular mastering it’s a +$10 add-on.
No. -14 LUFS is the level Spotify plays music at, not a target for the master. Popular music typically sits around -9 LUFS, and real releases range from about -5 to -20 LUFS. We choose the level for each song by how it sounds after Spotify’s normalization.
Sure! We have discounts for bulk deals. The size of the discount depends on the quantity of songs. You can always check it in the order window.

Yes — and this is worth doing before release. AI-generated tracks tend to share the same tells: timing that lands exactly on the grid, phrases that repeat identically, and a smeared, washed-out top end. A mix can polish those artifacts, but it cannot turn a generated part into a performance.
That is what the AI Slop Removal add-on ($200 per song, on the order form) is for: you send the multitrack, we find the element that gives the track away most — usually the lead or the main hook — and a session musician re-plays it live inside your session. One real performance changes how the whole record reads: groove, dynamics and tone stop sounding generated, and the track sits like a real recording.
The full breakdown – what gives AI tracks away, what the platforms now do about it, and how the fix works – is in our guide: How to make an AI-generated song sound real.
Mixing starts at $113 per song for sessions up to 20 tracks and goes up to $276 for 60–90 tracks. Add-ons and the number of songs change the total, and the multi-song discount is applied automatically. The order page shows the exact amount before you pay. Songs longer than 5 minutes cost 50% more.
For a mix we need the multitrack: every channel exported on its own, so the kick, snare, bass, piano, lead vocal and each background vocal arrive as separate files. A stem is a group of related tracks bounced to one file, such as all the drums or all the backing vocals. Stems are what stem mastering works from.
First of all, export your demo mix. Then you need to export the stems from your DAW. We have a list of video manuals:
Double check your audio files before uploading. Reload them into a new Session/Project, checking that they are in the correct placement and length. Finally zip your files.
Yes, please. Your rough mix shows us the arrangement, the balance you’re used to and the effects that belong to the sound. We listen to it before we start, so nothing you rely on gets lost in the mix.
Yes, one or two released songs with the sound you’re after. Tell us what you like in them: the vocal, the low end, the width. No reference? No problem, we’ll pick something close to your song.
No. The demo shows us the structure of the song and the effects you used, but we don’t mix toward it. For the sound you’re after, send a song that has been released on streaming platforms as the reference.
Six rounds on every mix, and most mixes are done in one or two. Notes like “snare louder in the bridge” or “drier vocal in the verses” are what a round is for. While your feedback is clear and we are moving in the right direction, we don’t count strictly. We would only quote for extra rounds if revisions go in circles or arrive without real direction, and we’d tell you first.
Any genre. The before/after player on the mixing page covers more than 20, from pop, country and punk to hip-hop, house and orchestral, and our mixing engineers have experience in almost all genres.
Our main office is in Rubi, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely from a few different countries. It is the same named people on every record – not a marketplace and not a rotating pool of freelancers.
Sure! We have an option which is called Upgrade Mixing and Mastering – which is fully analog.
But we work mostly in the box. Basically, we choose an approach for each project (digital or analog). So we choose which will fit better. We’re working for the result, not just for the “analog mixed’ label.
Music Editing is when we replace some samples (kick, snare, bass, hats, etc) to increase the overall quality of sound. Also we are doing time alignment of instruments such as guitars and drums.
Manual Vocal Editing is pitch correction using a combination of Melodyne and Autotune to create gentle sounding perfect pitch vocals.

Zip the separate tracks of the beat together with a rough bounce. On the order form, choose how many beats and the track count, write a short note with a reference, tick Music Editing or Rush if you need them, upload the zip and pay.
$95 per beat for up to 20 tracks, $120 for 20–40, $150 for 40–60 and $220 for 60–90. Music Editing is $50 per beat and Rush doubles the price. Several beats in one order get a discount automatically, and you see the final amount before checkout. Beats longer than 5 minutes cost 50% more.
Separate tracks: every sound as its own file, so the kick, 808, snare, hats and each melody layer arrive apart. A stem groups several tracks, such as all the drums, and leaves us less control over the balance. If the beat only exists as a few stems, show us in the chat first.
Bounce each track to its own WAV, all from the very start of the project so they line up, with no processing on the master channel. Guides for each DAW:
Then zip the folder.
Yes. It shows us the arrangement and the effects you built into the sound. We use it as a map of the beat, not as the target.
Yes, one released track with the sound you want. Say what you like about it: the 808, the drums, the width. No reference? Tell us the genre and the kind of artist the beat is for, and we will pick one.
Yes, if a vocal will go on top. Tell us in the notes whether the beat is for an artist to record on or a finished instrumental release, and we will mix it for that.
Six rounds, and most beats are done in one or two. Notes like “808 a bit louder” or “less reverb on the melody” are what a round is for. Extra rounds are quoted only if the notes go in circles, and never without asking you first.
Trap, drill, boom bap, R&B, afro, pop, house, EDM and more. If it is an instrumental, we mix it.
Beat mixing is the mix only. For a mastered beat, order Complete Mixing and Mastering (from $133), or send the finished mix to mastering ($79).
Yes. With every mix you get the final instrumental WAV and the mixed stems for trackouts, at no extra cost.
You do. Once paid, the mix is yours outright, worldwide and in every format, with no royalties or revenue share. A credit is welcome but never required.
Yes, the discount grows with each beat you add to the order, and you see it on the order page before you pay.

Export stems or the multitrack, zip them with a demo mix and upload the zip on the order page. Choose the number of songs, describe what you want replaced in the notes, and pay at checkout.
Yes, if you have them – that will be perfect.
No, we improve the sound, not rearrange it.
A stem is a group of related tracks bounced down to a single file – all the drums as one stem, all the backing vocals as another. A multitrack is every channel exported on its own: kick, snare, bass, piano, lead vocal, background vocal and so on. For mixing we want the multitrack; for stem mastering we want stems.
First of all, export your demo mix.
Then you need to export stems from your DAW. We have a list of video manuals:
Logic Pro X – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=frKZ1YQ-No0&t=9s
Pro Tools – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFC-_U_Qp7U&t=23s

Reaper – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KLltl2nvsR8&t=1s
Double check your audio files before uploading. Reload them into a new Session/Project, checking that they are in the correct placement and length.
Finally zip your files.
Yes, that would be perfect! But no problem if you don’t have it.
No. The demo shows us the arrangement and the sounds you chose. For the sound you want to end up with, send a released song.
You may send us a reference track to show us the sound you like. If there are no reference tracks – no worries, we will pick up something similar to your song.
Six, included. If a replacement kick turns out too bright or too heavy for the song, tell us and we try another one. If revisions start going in circles, we say so before quoting anything extra.
Any genre. In electronic and hip-hop productions it is usually the drums and bass that get replaced; in band recordings it is more often the timing of guitars and drums.
We are based in Rubí, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely from a few countries. It is always the same named people, not a pool of freelancers.
Yes. Each song in the order takes 2% off the price, so 5 songs save 10%. The order form applies it for you.
Of course. Ask in the live chat on the site or email info@majormixing.com.
Export the stems, zip them and upload the zip on the order page, together with a demo mix if you have one. Choose the number of songs and any add-ons, add your notes and a reference, then pay at checkout.
Mastering from a handful of grouped stems instead of one stereo file. We still treat the song as a whole, but we can also change the level, EQ or compression of one group, the lead vocal for example, without touching the rest. Problems inside a stem, like a muddy guitar in the accompaniment, still belong in the mix.
Export Drums, Bass, Accompaniment, FX, Lead Vocal and Background Vocals as separate WAV files, 24 or 32 bit at the native sample rate of the session. Every stem starts at the same point and runs the full length of the song. Bypass the master bus and keep peaks around -6 dB.
It helps. Send one or two released songs whose loudness and tone you like. Without one, we choose a reference in your genre ourselves.
Six rounds are included. Stem mastering notes are usually short (“vocal up a touch”, “less bright on top”), so most songs are done in one or two. If revisions start going in circles, we tell you before quoting anything extra.
Any genre. Stems make the biggest difference on vocal-led songs, where vocal level is the most common note, and on dense rock or EDM mixes where the drums react to heavy compression.
Yes, if you have it. A bounce of your mix shows us the balance you approved, so we know what to keep. It is not a sound reference: for that, send a released song.
Our office is in Rubí, near Barcelona, Spain. The engineers work remotely from several countries, and the same named people work on every record.
Compared with a stereo master of the same mix, usually yes, because a problem in one element can be fixed where it is. If the mix is already balanced the difference is small, and stereo mastering is the cheaper choice.
Yes, as add-ons on the stem mastering form: Apple Digital Masters $10 (Major Mixing is an Apple-certified mastering house), Mastered for Spotify $10, and Vinyl Mastering $20 per song.
Yes. Every song in the order takes 2% off: 3 songs 6%, 10 songs 20%. It is applied on the order form automatically and stacks with a coupon code.
Yes. Use the live chat on the site or email info@majormixing.com. If you are not sure your mix needs stem mastering, send it for a free track review first.
Yes. Add AI Slop Removal ($200 per song) on the order form. We find the part that gives the track away most, usually the lead or the main hook, and a session musician re-plays it live inside your session. One real performance changes the groove, the dynamics and the tone of the whole record.
More detail in our guide: How to make an AI-generated song sound real.
Both include mixing, mastering and six revision rounds. Upgrade adds three things. Our chief engineer handles the mix, the master and every revision. The song goes through our analog console and outboard instead of being mixed in the box. And we review your recordings before the mix and tell you what could be recorded better. Upgrade costs $270 to $460 per song and takes up to 4 days; Complete costs $133 to $318 and takes 2 to 3 days.
The price per song depends on the number of tracks in your session: $270 for up to 20, $336 for 20 to 40, $400 for 40 to 60 and $460 for 60 to 90. Add-ons are priced per song on top. The order form takes 2% off for every song in the order, and Rush doubles the price. You see the exact total before you pay.
The multitrack: every channel exported on its own, from bar 1 to the end. Stems are groups of tracks bounced together, such as all drums in one file. They work for stem mastering, but for Upgrade we need each channel separately, because each one gets its own processing.
Bypass everything on the master bus and keep peaks around -6 dB. Export each track as a 24 or 32-bit WAV at the session’s sample rate, then load the files into an empty project to check that they all line up. Export guides for each DAW:
Zip the folder when the check is done.
Yes. The demo shows us the structure, the effects and the balance you had in mind. We treat it as a map of the song, not as the sound to copy.
Please do. One or two released songs whose sound you like tell us more than a paragraph of adjectives. If you have none, we will pick references close to your genre.
Before the mix, we go through your recordings and send you notes: takes that clip, parts that are out of tune or time, sounds that would work better re-recorded. If a fix needs a new recording, we explain what to do so you can send a better take. During the mix you can ask questions at any point.
Six rounds, and the chief engineer handles all of them. We do not count strictly: when your notes are clear and the song is moving in the right direction, we keep going until it is right. Most songs are done in one or two rounds. We would only quote for extra rounds if revisions start going in circles, and we would tell you before doing anything.
Any genre. The choice between Upgrade and Complete depends less on the style than on the recordings and the release. If you are unsure, send us the track for a free review and we will tell you which tier fits.
Our chief engineer, Max Rayden. On Upgrade orders he mixes, masters and answers every revision. Our main office is in Rubí, Barcelona, Spain.
Upgrade is the tier with the most analog hardware in the chain: the Rupert Neve Designs 5088 console and the outboard listed on this page. The same equipment list also names the plugins we use. If you need to know exactly which stages of your song will be analog, ask us in the live chat before ordering and we will answer for your session.
Yes, as an add-on: $250 per song on the Upgrade form. The details are on our Dolby Atmos mixing and mastering page.
Music Editing ($100 per song on Upgrade) replaces or reinforces samples such as kick, snare, bass and hats, and tightens the timing of guitars and drums. Vocal Rescue ($200 per song) is manual pitch and timing correction, note by note, with Melodyne and Auto-Tune.
Both are extra masters, $20 per song each on the Upgrade form. Apple Digital Masters is Apple’s program for masters checked against its own AAC encoder. Only approved mastering houses can deliver it with the badge, and we are one. Mastered for Spotify is a master made with Spotify’s playback in mind.
Yes. The order form takes 2% off for every song in the order, so five songs save 10% and ten songs save 20%. The discount appears in the order window before you pay.

Yes. Choose the AI Slop Removal add-on ($200 per song): a session musician re-plays the element that gives the track away, usually the lead or the main hook, live inside your session, before we start the stereo and Atmos mixes.
More in our guide: How to make an AI-generated song sound real.
The working process will be similar to getting a regular stereo version. We make a stereo mix, you listen to it and suggest edits if needed. After confirming the stereo version, we make a Dolby Atmos Mix.
We provide you with a binaural file for listening with headphones. This is the best way for you to check out how your Dolby Atmos mix sounds if you don’t have access to a speaker set-up 5.1 or 7.1.4. If systems like 5.1, 7.1.4 are available to you, we can provide a downmix for listening in these formats.
You will receive 2 files for distribution. A stereo version wav file, and a Dolby Atmos ADM BWF file.
A stereo mix places everything between two speakers. In Dolby Atmos each sound can sit anywhere around and above the listener, either in fixed speaker channels (the bed) or as an object. Apple Music and TIDAL play the Atmos version where the device supports it; everywhere else the stereo version plays.
Yes, if you have one. It shows the arrangement, effects and balance you intended. For the sound you are aiming for, send a released song as a reference instead.
Binaural audio is an immersive 2-track mix that can be listened to using headphones or earbuds. It reproduces the way we hear the sound with our ears in the real world, that is why it creates the illusion of space and sounds coming from different directions. For Dolby Atmos, it creates a similar sound in your ears as if you would listen to a Dolby Atmos mix using a proper 3D speaker set-up. Binaural mixes are created directly from the Dolby Atmos mix.
Dolby Laboratories developed an object-based and channel-based hybrid sound format. It is capable of assigning sounds to specific speakers, it also allows to pan sound objects in space around the listener. All this information is encoded in the ADM BWF (Audio Definition Model Broadcast WAV Format) file, you will receive this type of file ready for distribution when you order a Dolby Atmos mix from us.
Yes, you can order a Dolby Atmos mix. The work will be similar to a normal Dolby Atmos mix creation, you will send us your multitrack and receive a Dolby Atmos file for distribution.
A Dolby Atmos file can be created from your stereo record with some illusion of immersive audio, but to create a perfect 3D song, we will need to use your initially recorded multitrack for the song.
The smallest true Atmos layout is 5.1.2 – five speakers around the room, a subwoofer, and two height speakers overhead. The height pair is what makes it Atmos rather than ordinary surround.
However, you can listen to a song in Dolby Atmos using any number of speakers or with headphones, you just need to make sure that your device supports Dolby Atmos
Yes. Add AI Slop Removal ($200 per song): a session musician re-records the part that sounds most generated, usually the lead or the hook, inside your session, and then we mix and master the song. More in our guide: How to make an AI-generated song sound real.
We start once the files are confirmed.
From $133 per song for up to 20 tracks; $168 for 20–40, $242 for 40–60 and $318 for 60–90 tracks. Add-ons are per song. The multi-song discount is applied automatically, and the order page shows the exact total before you pay. Songs longer than 5 minutes cost 50% more.
The multitrack: every channel as its own file, so the kick, snare, bass, keys, lead vocal and each backing vocal arrive separately. A stem is several tracks bounced together, such as all the drums. If stems are all you have, ask in the chat before ordering.
Export each track as a WAV starting at bar 1, at the session’s sample rate, with nothing on the master bus. Export your rough mix too. Video guides for each DAW:
Load the files into an empty session to check they line up, then zip the folder.
Yes, if you have one. It tells us how the parts fit together and which effects belong to the sound. It is a map of the song, not the target: for the sound, we go by your references.
Yes, one or two released songs and a line on what you like in each. In a Complete order the references guide the mix and the tone and loudness of the master. No reference? We will suggest one close to your song.
Six rounds on the order, and you can spend them on the mix or on the master. Most songs need one or two. While your notes are clear we don’t count strictly; we would only quote for more if revisions go in circles, and we would tell you first.
Yes. You get the mix first and send notes until it is right. The master is made from the version you approved, and you can still ask for changes to the master afterwards.
Pop, hip-hop, R&B, rock, metal, country, EDM and more. Pick a genre in the before/after player on this page to hear a mixed and mastered result.
Our office is in Rubí, Barcelona, Spain, and our engineers work remotely. The same named people work on every record.
Complete is mixed and mastered in the box by default. Add Analog Mastering ($50 per song) and the master goes through our outboard chain. For outboard gear on the mix as well, look at Upgrade Mixing and Mastering.
Yes, with the Dolby Atmos Version add-on ($200 per song): an immersive mix of the same song, delivered alongside the stereo master. More on the Dolby Atmos page.
Music Editing ($50) repairs or replaces weak parts before the mix: re-programmed drums, re-played parts, cleaned edits, tighter timing on guitars and drums. Vocal Rescue ($100) is manual pitch and timing correction of the vocal, note by note, in Melodyne and Auto-Tune.
Mastered for Spotify ($10) is a version of the master tuned to Spotify’s loudness normalization and encoding. Apple Digital Masters ($10) is a master made to Apple’s technical standard for the ADM badge on Apple Music; we are an official Apple Digital Masters provider. You don’t need either for a normal release, since the standard master works on every platform.
Your master goes through our outboard chain, powered by Access Audio, for extra depth and glue on top of the standard master. The chain: Focusrite 315, Fairman TMEQ, Elysia Alpha Compressor, Manley Variable MU, SSL Bus+ and Manley Massive Passive.
Yes. The more songs in one order, the bigger the discount. It is applied automatically, add-ons included, and you see it on the order page. For an album or an EP, put the release date in the notes.
