SpatialTones wordmark

Delivering mixing and mastering with musical depth and tonal clarity that travels beautifully across every system.

The Mixing Process

A consistent, musical workflow that balances clarity, vibe, and translation.

1

Gain staging & imaging

›
Level, pan, bus, and automate to build depth and presence before any heavy processing.
2

Tone & dynamics

›
Additive/subtractive EQ, compression, saturation, transient shaping, and de-essing for a balanced foundation.
3

Vocal care

›
Additional bussing, EQ/comp/de-esser, breath control, retiming/retuning with Melodyne, and pitch correction with Auto-Tune as the song needs.
4

Creative moments

›
Tasteful FX to enhance transitions and impact: reverse verbs/delays, tape stops/starts, stutters, beat chops, and curated SFX.
5

Mastering pass

›
Compression, M/S EQ, multiband dynamics, saturation, and limiting; typical delivery around -9 to -6 LUFS with transparent limiting. Alternate loudness targets available on request.
6

Revisions

›
Revisions are handled in batched rounds per your package for fast, consolidated changes.

FAQ

How are longer songs billed?

Extra song length is billed in 30-second increments, and extra project stems are billed five at a time.

  • Mix+Master: Base covers up to 10 stems and 4:00. Length beyond 4:00 bills at $10 per 30s per 5 stems (applies to all stems); extra stem groups beyond 10 are $30 per +5.
  • Stem Mastering: Base covers up to 10 stems and 4:00. Length beyond 4:00 bills at $5 per 30s per 5 stems; extra stem groups beyond 10 are $15 per +5.
  • Stereo Mastering: Base covers 4:00. Length beyond 4:00 bills at $5 per 30s; no stem surcharge.
Revision policy?

Revisions are completed in batches. Send an email with details, timestamps, reference tracks, anything that you feel needs addressed. Stem replacements are not included as part of standard revisions. Those require an order change.

Turnaround times?

First mix/master (v1.1) within 5 business days of project start; revisions within 3 business days. Rush delivery (+50%) follows the timelines and rules in the Rush section.

Refund policy?

Mixing/mastering involves substantial upfront time (session prep, edits, critical listening). To keep scheduling fair and pricing predictable, I don't offer refunds once I begin. I do include revisions to get it right.

What if I'm unhappy with the direction?

Tell me early; I will request reference tracks and specific notes and iterate within your included revisions. If the vision has changed significantly, we can re-scope.

Ready to lock in your project?

Send your files and references; I'll confirm scope and timeline. Rush options available when the calendar allows.

Include any passwords or access notes if needed.
