Stereo Mastering
Final polish for mixes that are already production-ready. I focus on tonal balance, punch, width, loudness, and consistency without flattening the song.
Human-first finishing for independent releases
Mixing and mastering that keeps the emotion in the record.
Work directly with Caedmon Crosby for detailed, musical finishing on singles, EPs, and albums. No template chain. No generic AI polish. Unlimited revisions and no upfront payment.
Unlimited revisions
No upfront payment
Typical turnaround in 48 hours
Built for artists who care how the record feels
This is not a loudness-only service. The goal is translation, impact, balance, and emotional clarity across headphones, cars, phones, and club systems.
Mix and Master
Full balance work before mastering. This is the better path when vocals, low end, or arrangement energy still need shaping before final delivery.
EP and Album Cohesion
Track-to-track consistency, sequencing guidance, and a release-focused approach for artists preparing complete projects instead of one-offs.
What you receive
Every project is delivered with practical release assets, not just one bounced file.
Release masters
Final WAV masters prepared for DSP release, distribution, and playback consistency.
Revision rounds
Unlimited revisions until the final passes feel right. No pressure to accept a version that still feels off.
Technical notes
Feedback on headroom, export settings, and problem areas if your mix needs changes before mastering.
Bundle coordination
If you are also registering copyright, we coordinate the project details so your release materials stay organized.
How the process works
Simple workflow, clear communication, and fast turnaround.
Submit your mix
Send your file through the main submission flow with any notes about references, priorities, or release deadlines.
Human review
I listen through the mix, flag issues if needed, and confirm the best path for mastering only or full mix support.
Revision rounds
You get a polished version back, we refine details together, and keep going until it translates the way you want.
Approve and release
Once approved, final payment is due and you receive your finished masters ready for release preparation.

Frequently asked questions
What file should I send?
A 24-bit WAV is best. Leave headroom and avoid heavy limiting on the master bus if you want the best result.
Do you use presets for every song?
No. Every project is handled individually. The point is to preserve the character of the song, not force it into one chain.
Can I bundle this with copyright registration?
Yes. Use the bundle link and the copyright page will preload the Standard package so the release support starts from the right scope.
