Terms & Conditions
Human Mastering will master final mixes and metadata only. We charge per file, not per song or per mix.
All fees for work commissioned to be paid either:
In total upfront
Half upfront, and half within 14 days of file delivery
Mastering cannot fix:
Mistakes (wrong mix version, someone coughing in song, forgot to turn aircon off etc.)
A bad performance (fret buzz, drums not hit hard enough, vocals drifting out of tune etc)
A bad recording (cheap/wrong microphones used, recorded in an overly reverberant space, earth hum in cables etc)
A bad mix (cowbell too loud, synths panned too wide, vocals masked by the guitars etc)
In fact, mastering will expose and exacerbate all of the above.
When required, we will provide a truly objective analysis of your work to give you the best chance to improve your song to a standard conducive to a great master. We want you to sound the best you can. We want to be proud to put our name against the mastered version of your song.
If your mix needs work to reach this stage, we can sort that out for you—just let us know.
