Mix & master

Mixing and mastering in Warrington

Per-song mixing and mastering packages are listed on our pricing page: revision rounds and album bundles sit alongside hourly studio hire so you can quote accurately before booking post-production time.

Bring your multitrack sessions or stems. We mix for balance, impact, and clarity; mastering aims for release-ready levels for streaming. Send references and we work to your style. Read our mixing vs mastering article if you are not sure which step you need first.

What mixing covers here

Mixing balances levels, panning, EQ, dynamics, and effects so every element sits in its lane without masking drums or swallowing vocals. You can supply references from streaming playlists so loudness and tone stay anchored to releases you already enjoy: not anonymous presets from an unnamed chain.

If stems arrive from our Evans House sessions or another studio, we align naming and sample rates before the first balance pass so nobody wastes time reconverting session folders mid-project.

Mastering before distribution

Mastering polishes the stereo mix for loudness consistency across tracks and prepares masters suited to your release targets. Flag alternate masters early: for example instrumental pairs or vinyl-side sequencing , because loudness and limiting choices diverge once those decisions settle.

Turnaround and revision rounds are agreed when you book so Cheshire artists juggling day jobs know exactly how many passes sit inside the quoted envelope.

Send us your stems

Export consolidated WAV stems at the sample rate you tracked, label buses plainly (vocals, drums, bass, music bed), and leave headroom on the master bus so downstream limiting stays musical rather than salvaging clipped prints.

Note tuning edits, vocal comps, or mute automation you still expect: ambiguity slows recalls once balances tighten. Send stems via WeTransfer, Google Drive, or Dropbox: share a download link when you enquire and we confirm delivery details for larger projects.
