Remote Mastering Engineer

Nate Johnson on SoundBetter

R&B is my main field. I am a singer-songwriter with several released tracks and an EP under the name "Nate Who" I began my work with local artists here in Miami to give them a polished sound before delivering their tracks to Spotify. I would love to do the same for your mixed tracks. I also provide services as a vocalist and writer

I operate in the box and have all waves, izotope, plugin alliance, slate and other plugins. I work with logic. My work starts with a review of your mix and I can suggest some tweaks to the mix that can make the mastering product even better although we can skip this step if necessary. I'll do my best to revise until you are happy with the product and it is ready for streaming services. I also provide services as a vocalist and writer
