• Stereo Master - $50/track

    *A pre-master assessment is included with every stereo master. I’ll check the master for anything objectively out of place and let you know if I have any suggestions that could lead to a better final master.

  • Multitrack (stem) Mastering (4-8 stereo groups) - $75/track

  • Mix Feedback - with up to 3 revisions - $18

  • Mix & Mastering - $200-300 depending on the project.

Revisions of updated/modified mixes:

If you want to make a small change to your mix, the first one is free. If you are making big enough changes to your mix that it requires a new master of the same song - $20

Subsequent prints through the same mastering chain are $10.

Revisions to masters on my end (with no changes to the mix) are included until you’re happy and have signed off on the master.

As a mastering engineer, I aim to put your mix in the most flattering light possible and ensure it sounds great everywhere it’s played. I will always be honest about what I’m hearing and serve as a final quality control check before distribution.

TESTIMONIALS

“My initial reaction is that my mind is blown. Somehow you made everything clearer, like you fixed my mixing errors. It sounds "alive" now. Very impressed, I think you nailed it! Can't thank you enough!”

-Lucid Memory

“Finding a mastering engineer who is also an amazing artist-musician-producer has been a fantastic combo for me. Having pre-master mixing advice, with relation to how the final will be affected, has always been a dream of mine. I have never had better mix advice than from Psybur. It is professional, precise, and honest. The master for my remix of Inna Dub Cave is outstanding! Can’t say enough about how good it came out. Psybur has my full endorsement.”

-Deviceful

“Since I have used your services, my sound quality has been noticed. My track went from an OK-sounding mix to a pleasing 3D master. It took my art to the next level. I have even received a few VA invitations since posting the mastered tracks. We will work again and again together. I’m glad to have found a passionate engineer to help with my mixing and mastering. Thank you so much!”

FAQs

What file format should I send?

  • Pre-masters should be sent in .wav or .aiff formats

  • Export at the same sample rate & bit depth as your project, no dither.

  • Turn off your final limiter for exporting. Other mix bus processing that you’ve had on while mixing your project is ok to leave on for export. Unsure about the mix bus processing? Feel free to send me two versions of the track.

  • When exporting make sure that normalization is turned off AND your stereo output is not clipping (no peaks are going above zero). If your stereo out is clipping, you can turn down your master fader to ensure you’re not clipping.

Should I send a reference?

  • Yes, but it’s not required. If you have something particular that you are going for you can include a reference track - wav file is preferred and if you don’t have that just a link to the song(s) will work. Music you want your track to “sit on the shelf” with can be useful. What will you be comparing this master to? In the end, I’ll do what I think is right for the music, but it can be useful to have references too.

How and when does payment work?

  • When you’re happy with the masters I will send a PayPal invoice that can be paid with Debit, Credit, or through a PayPal account. You do not need to have a PayPal account.

  • For full album mastering a 50% deposit is required at the start & full payment is due after the project is complete.

How long will it take?

  • It depends on how much other work I have in the queue, but for single tracks often within 48 hours and for full albums around a week.
