Mixing:
Bonafide studio is run by a powerful Macintosh Computer with a multitude of plug-ins, but also has a superb Mackie analogue desk and a variety of analogue outboard including valve and solid state compressors. We are able to mix either 'in the box' or 'old school' depending on your preference. As the focus of the studio is based around our Macintosh you are able to bring in projects that were recorded elsewhere if you have the audio files. That means the recording you loved whilst you were playing in the studio but sounded terrible when you got home can be brought in at BonaFideStudio and saved! Our Producers and Engineers are also trained as Mastering engineers so even if you decide not to get the track mastered at BonaFideStudio you can be confident that your mix will not change radically once it leaves our premises.
Mixing is always included in our special discounted rates (Click here to find out more) but if you wish us to mix your project recorded elsewhere our rate is £25 per hour + Master Media.
Discounts available for Record Labels and individuals mixing more than 5 songs.
Call 020 7684 5350 or 020 7684 5351 for more info.
Mastering
Essentially, Mastering is responsible for making your music sound as loud as the rest of your CDs. Additional Bass and treble can be applied at the mastering stage as well. It is the final polish to make your music sound professional. It is also the source from which all copies will be produced (via methods such as pressing, duplication or replication). Today, the format of choice is digital masters. Analogue masters such as audio tapes are still in use today, although, it looks like the industry is slowly phasing this medium out. The source material is fine tuned through equalization and audio level compression, and rendered (In a tonal context) as a cohesive audio program. The new ("Mastered") source material is also put in the proper order at this stage. This is commonly called "the assembly or track sequencing". More tasks such as editing, pre-gapping, levelling, fading in and out, noise reduction and other signal restoration and enhancement processes can be applied as part of the mastering stage.
Online mastering and mixing available.
