Preparing Your Files

To achieve the best possible results, please follow these guidelines before exporting your audio:

  • 48K and 24 bit Audio is best. I can work with 44.1K and 16 bit also

  • Include as much or as little processing as you feel is essential to the character of your song.

  • Leave any creative effects that are part of your sound in

  • Keep EQ active if it contributes to your intended tone. If it's only being used to correct frequencies during your own mix, you can bypass it.

  • Bypass compression unless it's an important part of the sound or is controlling the performance in a way that's integral to the track.

  • Feel free to remove reverb as I can add back in later. It gives me more freedom to create space

  • Same with delay,unless it's a creative effect, part of the groove, or appears only at specific moments in the song.

  • You can pan everything centered if wished. It gives me greater flexibility during mixing. If you choose to export without panning, please include your preferred stereo positions in your mix notes.

  • Complete all vocal editing and tuning before exporting your files. Please ensure breaths, clicks, pops and any unwanted noises have been cleaned up. Alternatively this can be added in the production section.

  • Always include a rough mix of the song as a reference. This allows me to confirm that all files have exported correctly and helps me understand your creative vision from the outset.
