What Are the Benefits of Using Online Mixing and Mastering Services?The biggest benefit of using an online mixing and mastering service is that you can save yourself precious time while a trained engineer refines your music - all from the comfort of your own home. This gives you more time for other important aspects of your business, such as marketing and PR work.
Mixing and mastering are two distinct but equally important components of the music production process that might be difficult to identify. Mixing is essentially the process before mastering, and it entails integrating and modifying separate recordings to make a professional stereo mix. Next, the stereo file is mastered to ensure the music has been cleaned and framed into a competitive, radio-ready release. |

Musicians nowadays have easy access to recording software and gear. What's great about this rise in self-recording is that it allows independent musicians to make multi-track recordings in the seclusion of their own homes.
Unfortunately, the standards propped up by self-help blogs and YouTube channels today are quite blurry, and doing it all yourself might not get you results that pay off. For example, if you've tried mastering your own music, you might've heard that you should master your music to -14 LUFS because streaming services will force it to that level anyway. Did you know that that's a lie? Not only do I employ a variety of tools to adjust the levels of the music I work with, but I also use them to change the area, structure, and location of the track components in some circumstances. And by adding extra effects to each component (usually at the client's discretion), this can give your mix the life it needs to shine. |

Professional mixing and mastering services are an essential component of any musician’s career, whether they're just starting out in a garage or selling multimillion-dollar albums.
