Normalization, sonic enhancement, equalization, noise reduction, multi-band compression, stereo compression, low-end frequency extention, low-end frequency removal, proper fade in and out, song sequencing, over all continuity matching, ISRC coding, all meta data, mp3 generation, 3 supplied masters, plus what ever more is needed to bring out the very best in your release.

1) If possible always record at 24 bit. (nearly doubling your dynamic range will enable VB mastering to achive the loudest possible results using the least amount of transient removal or compression)
2) Try not to use any compression at mix down. (mastering compressors are very different from the one's you may find in a typical studio)
3) Always leave 6 db of headroom. (Let VB mastering worry about volume)
4) Let VB mastering do your fade endings. (Simply put, "undo")

All of our work is 100% satisfaction guaranteed.
We will even master 1 song of your choice and email you a 192kbps mp3 sound clip (approximately 1/2 the song ) for your approval at no charge to you. (New clients only)

If your not 100% satisfied we will keep working on it until we get it right or you owe us nothing!

As in all area's of this industry, music is highly subjective however it is our belief that in order to achive the very best results it is always in the best interest of the project to bring in a fresh set of ears before going to release. Someone who doesn't have 400 hours of recording time invested in the project. An objective opinion. This is one of the main reasons it's been common practice in the music industry for decades.
