Endorse David Young- check_circleVerified
David is an amazing engineer easy to work with and communicative. Most importantly David captured our vision for the track and delivered a mix and master that we a very happy with.

Great having David master our track. Professional and responsive during the process. He nailed what we were looking for from the mastered track. We will most definitely be asking him to work on future tracks.

Working with David Young was my very first job booked via Sound Better. My faith-based proposal, to this gifted minstrel, was undoubtedly ordained by the Most High YAH. Because of the nature of this assignment I was met with a lot of spiritual warfare which often delayed communication on my part. STILL, even through the opposition, David's unique approach to including his clients in the mixing process in REAL TIME; along with his kindness and professionalism did it for me!!! HalleluYAH!

This was my first experience with Soundbetter, and also my first experience in having someone master any of my songs, with 5 songs that he did. Very little tweaking to be done, only to 2 of the songs, and he was very prompt in doing that, and also with good explanations, and also some suggestions for my next go-around, like to upload WAV files instead of MP3 files, and also maybe to take off a couple plugins off the Main Out in Studio One 5 Pro. I selected David for a couple reasons. He is also

I came to soundbetter looking to a find a professional mastering engineer who would give my record the beef it needed. I found that in David. Throughout the project, David kept me abreast with project but most importantly exceeded my expectation in terms of my delivery date. He was very flexible in making the changes I wanted to the track. It was an absolute pleasure working with him and will do it again.
