Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: To make sure that your work is ready for the service that you're requesting, i.e. proper track labeling, proper project exporting by accounting for any reverb or echo tails, exporting tracks at the original sample rate of your project, and proper headroom for both mixing and mastering. And don't forget to include the sample rate and project tempo in the file names.
