First one to be finished!

There wasn't any space left at the start or end (for fades) which made it a little tricky, and there wasn't any headroom, so those might be a few things to take into consideration next time you send a track to someone for mastering.

But overall I think the operation was a complete success :D

I think that the track that I send you had like 6 or 3 db headroom right?

Sorry man, I was well shit at mixdowns when I was just using reason, didn't really understand them at all (not great now but at least there is *some* headroom these days) At least it was a challenge though ehy ;)

Just got my master back from lowpass here, and my god, sounding really really good, he got a richness and fullness to my tune that paid masters haven't given me!

Take him up on his free mastering quick before he makes it as an engineer and starts charging for his services!!

Huge respect for him on that one!!

Hi everyone,

Just to make it clear again, I will not work on mp3's. If you want it done then you need to send me the wav/s.

I'm happy to keep doing this but I am working pretty hard at trying to find a job atm so will give you a turnaround of 2 days, and I will work on whichever track was sent to me first to make it fair.

peace

Thanks to everyone who sent me their material to work on, it's kept me busy and I've learned a few new things :D

I was only going to do 3 originally but ended up finishing 9, they were fun working on but I won't be accepting anymore for the time being.

Hope you all enjoyed getting your newbie masters back, and hopefully they weren't a total disaster,

:t:
