MIXING AND MASTERING

MIXING: So, you’ve finished recording and you’re happy with the performances and arrangement. Now it’s time to mix. Quality mixing is vital to the presentation of any song. No matter how good the song is (lyrics, melody, arrangement) or how well it was recorded, a professional mix is extremely important. A good mix will not only make a song sound better, but can highlight the dynamics and emotions that really bring a song to life.

Professional mixing at Edge Recording Studio is the technical and creative process of combining all the individual tracks (instruments, vocals, etc.) and “mixing” them down to one stereo track. For each instrument or vocal, mixing determines how loud that track is in relation to the others, what space it occupies in the mix , and how it sounds (bright, dull, clear, distorted, fat, thin, etc.).

EDGE E-MIX

How does EDGE E-MIX work? Send us the multi-track audio files of your project by e-mail, and we send you back the stereo master mixes completed to the highest standard. When submitting your files we recommend you send a playlist of reference material (musical influences and songs you’d like your mixes to sit with) as a stylistic guide for the mix engineer. 

The mixes you receive for listening reference will be supplied back to you in an agreed format. Once the mix is approved, an unprocessed 24-bit WAV file will be created for use in mastering. We’ll keep the mix sessions backed up so that you can always come back to us for changes in the future if needs be.

MASTERING: The mastering process is the final icing on the cake for any record. It gels all of the songs in to one body of work, adding that finished, professional sound to any mix or project by making changes to tonal, level and spatial aspects of each song.
