Mixing:
$35.00 per hour. I will mix the instrumental as well as the vocals
for the song. This process yields a prefessional result* as the vocals can be
placed within the mix of the instrumentation. This allows the vocals to "sit"
in the mix as they should, rather than attempting to make them fit in an already
mixed environment. This is the prefered method.
Vocal Mixing: $35.00 per hour. This assumes mixing vocals to
be placed over a stereo mixdown of an instrumental. Please provide all vocal
tracks in wav format from location zero.
Instrumental Mixing: $35.00 per hour. I expect each instrument to be recorded on a separate track. Mixing of combined tracks (i.e. kick and snare on one track) cannot be expected to yeild a professional mix.
Album Mastering**: Contact to negotiate pricing. Please include total number of tracks, current recording state of audio (24 bit at 96Khz/ 16 bit at 44.1Khz) that you'll be sending, and a numbered tracklisting. It is preferred to receive all tracks with volume peaks at or below -6dbFS for optimal headroom during the mastering process. All tracks will be mastered so levels and frequencies accross the project are in line to give you the best, high-impact sound available. Professional results at an indie price!
Single Track Mastering: $35.00 per hour. This includes a full master track formatted in .wav or .cda. You'll be sent an MP3 at 192 kbps (CD quality) for approval.
All artists seeking services must submit a studio contract: The Den Studios Contract
