Project Pricing Each project is unique, therefore each requires unique pricing.   Please email alex@theplaceformastering.com with your project's: total number of songs (please note if there are multiple versions and/or configurations) total running time in minutes format:  single, EP, or album format of sources/mixes (including sample rate & bit depth) how many references are required how many production masters are required Also, please indicate whether you wish to attend the session or not.  We only offer hourly rates and separate parts costs for those who attend.  If you aren't attending, and are an independent or small label artist, we can offer you a complete package price. Include any comments you wish such as style of music, sonic concerns, scheduling, etc.  Studio Manager Alex. Rockafellar will reply with a quote, typically within one business day. Single Special Get to know The Place...For Mastering and hear how great your music can sound!  We currently offer a Single Song CD Mastering package.  The package includes mastering/processing of one song (one version) and one CD reference for $200 plus shipping.  Please let us know your schedule and shipping specifications and we will make every effort to turn your single around quickly.  Be assured that Joseph will personally put the same unparalleled experience behind your single as he puts behind every major label album. Fine print:  This price is for one session only.  If revisions are requested, they will be billed at our hourly rate plus shipping. *Please note that multiple songs for an EP or album would average below the single song price--the more songs, the lower price per song!* Submission Tips As far as how to prepare your mixes, just make them sound the best you can.  Here is a list of tips: Please leave a little head room (3 to 5 dB) so that Joseph has some room to work/process.  Keep the mixes in the native sample rate you've been working in and keep the bit rate high (24 bit). INCLUDE the sample rate and bit depth in the documentation. Stereo interleaved .wav files are preferred, but if you have mixed to AIFF or SD2 just let us know and we will accommodate. Send all .wav files on CD-R or DVD-R using the ISO disc protocol. Name each file with the song name and version.    Leave 5 seconds of silence/room tone before and after each song. Do your own fade outs (and still add 5 seconds of silence). PLEASE LABEL your discs with your name and project title.  INCLUDE all technical info such as sample rate and bit depth for EACH song. You may ship us your mixes via a traditional courier such as FedEx, UPS, USPS etc.  Or, we can accept and deliver your music via our FREE FTP service.  Please call for details on setting up an account. Payment We accept Visa, Mastercard, American Express, debit cards, and US Postal money orders.  Payment is due the date of your session.
