Optional Mastering

Mastering is available if you want it.

It is not required in order to leave with a finished song.

Many artists release the mix created during their session without additional processing. If you want a final pass focused on translation and consistency across playback systems, mastering is available as a separate step.

What Mastering Does

Mastering is a final, external listen on a completed mix.

It focuses on balance, dynamics, and translation rather than creative changes.

The goal is consistency across playback environments, not reworking the song.

How It Works
