Music is Community and Collaboration. Having a mastering engineer on your side as a resource makes the difference. With Billboard hits, Grammy Nominations and rave client feedback, we pride ourselves on being easy to work with and get it right the first time.
I not only want to get incredible sound and deliver a master for the marketplace, the core value is to respect the soul of a record.
Music stuck me at an age when the FM dial was the place to hear fresh innovative music.
With a McIntosh hi-fi in the home and older brothers with record collections, passion about music and sound was inevitable.
It wasn't long before my bands were invading our basement on a regular basis and the lifestyle of attending concerts of all the legends we could hear, arose. Sitting next to Dan Healy mixing a Dead concert, I realized there was more to this than performing, and I knew I had a part to play.
Surely the next step would be hours of field recordings, band recordings that led to work in studio recording and landing gigs in mastering studios. It's now been over 20 years since launch of Specialized Mastering.
What to expect:
At Specialized Mastering, you wont get blown-out-rashy sounding plug-ins.
How about instead, depth, full bottom-end, smooth top-end, and groove supporting dynamics feel?
Solid levels *and* helping the musical vibe is not always easy but it's what we strive for.
Pristine analog quality is standard, with a relentlessly chosen analog-chain and 10M clocked digital conversion.
It's the intersection of Man/Machine.
