Speak to your mastering engineer. A personal touch.
You can chat directly with your Mastering Engineer before, during and after the whole mixing and mastering process, asking any questions you need to. Keep an eye on the mastering blog as it’ll be updated with any FAQs too. If you’re unsure about anything at all I’m here to help. It’s very important that a mix engineer understands the artist too!
You’ll also get access to pre-mastering advice as added value, so work would never go ahead if there are any glaringly obvious issues which can be easily fixed in the mix. Feedback will be sent over directly via email so that you can get the best possible sound from your track. It definitely helps to have a second trained pair of ears on it.
Each mastering order placed comes with a fair number of revisions.
To reinforce the high level of service – if you require any last minute tweaks or adjustments to get a mastered sound that is tailored directly towards what you want and need in every way, that’s what you’ll get. To date, ESM has a 100% satisfaction rate!
