Joe Procopio on SoundBetter

I've worked with artists ranging from bedroom producers to multi-grammy-winners, and every client gets the same high level of service and attention to detail.

Every client's project gets the same level of attention to detail that I would on my own projects.
Your music is a part of you, and entrusting that to someone requires a bond of trust -- one that I take seriously to work with the artist to achieve the best results possible.

    I worked with Joe P on my album The Consequences of Time Travel. Joe is talented, dedicated, intelligent, responsive, and just generally a great dude. He understood my music and pulled all the right strings to get the best sound quality possible out of my mix, accentuating just the right elements. I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend his services without reservation.

    I've had Joe master two full length records for me, and both have been top notch. He's great about revisions and the final product is professional and tidy. He's my go-to for mastering.

    I loved the sound of the master..Track plays at a nice level sound.. Only thing that was bad was on my end was the mix.. so by that being said a well good mix will give you the best mastering sound .. Joe knows what he doing and I will most definitely been doing more business with him and his team

    Joe is the best. Insanely fast turnaround and quick correspondence - he'll make adjustments until you're satisfied with the sound. His expertise and gear gives your track that polished sparkle that we all seek in the mastering stage. Highly recommend.

    I worked with 2Track Mastering on my first album and I was beyond satisfied with the results, Joe had excellent correspondence and a quick turn around with the tracks sounding great. I would recommend his mastering to anyone I know, it’s excellent mastering at an affordable price.
