Have you first read all
of "guidelines for mastering services"?
If not, please go back and do so now, as this link will make much
more sense to you after
reading that. We'll take a coffee break while you read.
Ok, now we're ready. Here
are some basic pricing templates:
1) Per song 0-5:00 minutes: $150.00*
*Great for one or two songs at most. Look
at our other packages for better value when
dealing with lengthier projects.
2) Anything from 16-20 minutes long: $400.00
3) Anything from 21-39 minutes long: $600.00
4) Anything from 40-59 minutes long: $800.00
5) Anything from 60-80 minutes long: $1000.00
Although your project would be better suited
to a full blown mastering session from top to bottom, from a quality/continuity
standpoint (as well as value!), there are still some, who have
very specialized needs, and require only one or two of our procedures.
For those, we offer any of our individual tasks, either one at
a time, or in any combination. For any special requests, please
contact us with your specific needs to obtain a personal price
quote. Here's the basic listing:
1) Equalization
2) Compression/Limiting
3) Noise control…Gating/Expanding
4) Stereo image adjustment/manipulation
5) General assembly…track order, fade ins and outs, and
crossfades
6) Final assembly…pq codes, subtexts, track indexing
1) Per song 0-5:00 minutes: $50.00*
*Great for one or two songs at most.
Look at our other packages for better value when
dealing with lengthier projects.
2) Anything from 16-20 minutes long: $100.00
3) Anything from 21-39 minutes long: $175.00
4) Anything from 40-59 minutes long: $225.00
5) Anything from 60-80 minutes long: $300.00
Please note: these prices are PER service.
For example: an EQ job for a 20 minute project would be $100.00.
An EQ job along with a Compression/Limiting job would be $200.00.
Our advice is, that anything exceeding one or two tasks becomes
costly, and presents less of a value than a complete mastering procedure.
In other words, a la'carte can be much more expensive than a full
meal. Again, these individual services are for specific needs, where
only one or two things are required.
Anything you don't see, please call or
e-mail.
Your satisfaction, is of paramount importance.
So after we sent out a final proof cd, we will await your approval.
If it passses, we will prepare the FINAL official master to send
to you. If, however, it does not meet your approval, we will affect
any changes you request at no charge. Upon approval, we will initiate
the final steps. Any more revising after that will be a $200.00
fee. Please remember, this is extremely time consuming and detailed
work.
$10.00 each additional official copy (utilizing
Apogee gold cd)
With time spent on your master (no rush
jobs) as well as the proofs sent out, and the possibility of alterations…we
are realistically looking at a 3-4 week window. Please allow time
for this. With all the time spent on your recording, we don't
want to fumble the ball at the last step!
If you absolutely have to have a quick turnaround, let us know
what you have in mind, and we will have to push your project ahead
of the line to accommodate you, as well as work overtime. There
is a fee for this. Remember we are pushing someone else back.
Quick turnaround priority fee: $200.00
We will send you our mastering agreement
via e-mail and hard copy, which details our standing terms. An
order sheet will be filled out and sent, once, both you and us,
have agreed to all of the details concerning the services you
require. An invoice will also be sent via e-mail and hard copy,
once payment is received .
PLEASE NOTE; THAT BY CLICKING THE
ABOVE LINK, YOU ARE HEREBY STATING THAT YOU HAVE READ AND ACCEPTED
ALL OF THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE PURCHASE
AGREEMENT.
Payment must be made in full before we
commence on your project.
We prefer paypal (use the link on provided on this page), but

Final note: We ABSOLUTELY, DO NOT have
