Mastering
MASTERING IS THE FINAL creative step in the artistic process of recording and involves assembling the artist’s mixes into a finished presentation. The result is an equalized, leveled, and sequenced master for replication as CD, hi res release, vinyl, audio for picture, or compressed download. The human ear traoned for critcal listening is the most important stage in this process.
Critical to achieving great results consistently is the wealth of analog and digital tools at our disposal, all within a custom-designed and -built hi res monitoring environment.
