Mix and Master Specs
Preparation and provision of files for Mix and Master:
Ensure your audio files for stereo/stem mastering and mixing meet thes following requirements:
Bit Rate: 16bit or 24bit
File Formats: WAV or AIFF
Sample Rates: 44.1khz, 48khz, 88.2khz or 96khzCHECK LIST
Prior to submission of your final mixes for mastering or mixing, ensure the following:
1.) That they are indeed the final mixes. Be sure you are satisfied with the mixes.
2.) Make allowance for a small amount of silence at the start of the song and ensure tracks fade out smoothly.
3.) Be sure files don't excede - 3dB on the master fader.
Leaving certain master fader processing enabled is acceptable, however removing any compression and limiting would welcome, as It is impossible to “undo” over-compression or limiting.
If in your opinion limiting and/or compression on the master is vital to your music, feel free to detail to us in the message box.
4.) Verify that files contain no errors; check them after rendering.
be sure to accurately label mixes; correct track number order, track and artiste names should be included in the filename for efficient organisation. Note that these may be altered as necessary, during the mastering process.
For best file output and transfer:
1.) Place all files in a ZIP folder.
2.) Upload the folder to the following cloud storage mediums: Dropbox (preferred), Google Drive, We Transfer or similar file-hosting

3.) Additional high resolution wav (e.g. 96khz 24 bit) (US $6.50 per track)

4.) Mastered for I-Tunes (US $45.16 per track)
This selection provides you with an extra wav file at 24 bit which is free from inner sample distortion after conversion to the I-tunes format. Sound quality will be better in I-tunes.
5.) Lower level master for media that use loudness normalization (US $6.50 track)
iTunes radio, YouTube and Spotify no longer require files around 0dBfs. These streaming services now work with loudness normalization. They normalize all audio to a certain playback level. Each track they stream has the same perceived loudness. A louder master no longer benefits from just being loud, therefore a master that has plenty of dynamics and transients will certainly sound better on these platforms. The addied advantage is that your tracks don’t have to suffer from distortion, clipping or inter-sample clipping.

H.O.F. utilises our analog tube equipment in the mastering chain to give your sound an analog finish.

A Stem file is an open, multi-channel audio file which contains a track split into four musical elements – bass, drums, vocals, and melody for example. With each element available independently, you can mix in ways that just weren’t possible until now. Also stemfiles are sold to customers on Beatport (for example) for a much higher price than a stereo file. So as a producer you earn more money. DJ's are willing to pay more for stemfiles. Please note that you will have to deliver stems too if you want this option.
