Mastering

Please read the following information carefully.

It is essential that the following guidelines are adhered to when exporting audio for mastering.

We use industry standard mastering which requires multi-stem export and predefined technical specifications to be followed.

It is important that you get this right the first time, we will not be held liable for any complications that arise from incorrect stems.

Please make sure all audio meets these requirements:

 

  • Labelled correctly (PERCS for percussion stem, BASS for bass stem and so on);
  • 44.1kHz or above;
  • 24bit or above;
  • .WAV files only. No other formats will be accepted;
  • -3dB headroom between the loudest peak of the track and 0dB;
  • No limiter on your master output and no clipping. No dither required on your pre-master;
  • Digital Releases // Minimum 5 stems; maximum 9 stems.
  • Vinyl Releases // 5 stems only.
