How We Work
A quick breakdown of the workflow from the first file transfer to the final master.
Mixing
1. File Delivery
Provide your finalized, edited tracks as consolidated 24-bit/48kHz or higher WAV stems with all limiting bypassed.
2. First Pass & Review
I will balance, EQ, and enhance the emotion of the track, delivering the first version securely via Samply.
3. Revisions & Masters
We dial in the final tweaks using timestamped notes. Once approved, the high-res mix is ready for mastering.
Recording
1. Pre-Production
We discuss your vision, instrumentation, and sonic goals to ensure the session is prepped perfectly.
2. The Session
Focused entirely on capturing the raw energy and performance with high-fidelity microphones and preamps.
3. Consolidation
Files are organized, comped, and securely delivered to you, ready for the editing and mixing stages.
Editing
1. Assessment
You provide the raw tracking sessions and rough mixes along with notes on what requires tightening.
2. Precision Edits
Transparent pitch correction and pocketing timing issues while preserving the natural soul of the performance.
3. Mix Ready
Cleaned up, crossfaded, and fully consolidated stems are sent back, ensuring a seamless mixdown process.
Mastering
1. Mix Hand-off
Send your final mixdowns leaving plenty of headroom, ensuring no clipping on the master buss.
2. The Polish
Optimizing EQ, dynamics, and tonal balance so the track translates beautifully across all listening environments.
3. Final Formats
Delivering streaming-optimized masters (LUFS standard) alongside formats optimized for physical media if requested.
