Excellent and fast work. 5 stars.
check_circleVerifiedJoseph is a true gem and it was an absolute pleasure working with him!
Super communicative from his first message, he sent detailed mastering notes, explained his process along the way, and took care of as many small edits as I needed to make sure my track sounded exactly the way I needed it to! He also nailed everything I asked him to change, every time 👌🏼
I 100% recommend working with him as I certainly will many more times in the near future.
Thanks again Joseph!- check_circleVerified
Freeman nailed the master pretty much in the first go around. He brought all the minor details and parts of the song out and it sounds amazing. He is also very quick with communication and explaining in detail what he did to the song during his process. Definitely recommend.

Joseph helped me out with a mix for a song and I am very satisfied with the result. He gave detailed feedback regarding the changes he did and the communication was super smooth. I will continue to work with Joseph on an upcoming project and I would recommend other people to do so as well!

A legit five stars!
Joseph is a real pro with great communication and great skills. My song landed in the "singer-songwriter" realm and he knocked it out of the park with some tasteful choices. Revisions were made in a timely fashion and only took us a couple to get the track perfect.
A consummate pro
check_circleVerifiedJoseph is the best! Really great person who makes the work fun. Great communicator, project manager and audio production skills. Joseph is forever one of my go-to producers.
Joseph was such a joy to work with. From the first email he was incredibly up-front, thorough and kind in his approach. I'm so happy with the final results of working with him and I would absolutely recommend it to any musician looking for not only excellent masters on their songs but also just a generally pleasant, streamlined and professional experience on the way there.
Joseph was an absolute professional. It was such a pleasure to work with him, and the resulting product is something we are all very proud to present to the world. He was super easy to work with and we will definitely be back the next time we need mastering done!
Joseph did a great job mastering my song! He was very prompt and communicated well. We went through 4 versions and got the song exactly where I wanted it to be. Thanks Joseph!
Amazing attention to detail and the included notes detailing his process were fantastic to have as to help develop my intuition for future tunes.
Joseph is not only a great engineering he is ridiculously helpful. I learned a lot while working with him on a track for an electronic artist. And also improved my own mixing abilities. He is an easy person to work and talk with and I look forward to the next time I have any mastering needs!
Joseph is always on point with communication, and never fails to deliver solid results!

Interview with Freeman Mastering
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Benjamin Hull is an excellent mixing engineer and producer! Highly recommend. https://soundbetter.com/profiles/601874-benjamin-hull
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That mastering is just about making it louder. That's definitely a component of the process, but it's more so making listening critically and making dozens of micro adjustments that ensure the track translates on all listening systems.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Communication is key. If you don't feel like the mastering engineer, or anyone you hire remotely to work on your music, doesn't communicate clearly and effectively, doesn't manage expectations well, and isn't transparent about their process, that's a big red flag.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Fun! Mastering music full time is a dream come true, I bring joy and excitement to every project I work on. If you're passionate about the song, so am I!
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I look to start every collaboration with a conversation - I want to know what your production goals are and how you hear the song in your head.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Never cut corners during the recording process. So often artists do a haphazard job recording the tune and hope that it'll all come together during mixing. Garbage in, garbage out. During production, after you finish recording anything, constantly ask yourself - "If this was released pretty much as is, no mixing, would I be happy with it?". That's how high the bar should be.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Communication. More than my technical chops, I know how to talk about music, production, songwriting, and mixing.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Two of my favorite musician/producers are Sufjan Stevens and Casey Crescenzo of The Dear Hunter - I love their work and admire how hands-on they are with the process. They have a clear idea of what they want out of production before they even begin, but aren't afraid to experiment if they're inspired.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Most frequently I mix music, usually anything that falls under the indie/singersongwriter umbrella (indie rock, alt, singersongwriter).
