"Mastering a song with Dubmatix is not only his professional and heavy sound which is guaranteed but his suggestions on the mix have often lifted some pieces that needed that extra spice. A kind man with a great heart for creating sound and always being clear on what could be added to some frequencies or instruments! After a year of working with Dubmatix I can say I learned a lot as a producer. So thanks brother!!!" - Arky Starch

 

HOW IT WORKS
My goal for every song is to help you achieve the best result possible for your music. If you're ready to have your song(s) mastered, the first step is to send a wave file and I'll have a listen and see if any aspect of the mix could be affected or need to be "tamed" during the mastering process. I'll generally do a test master to listen for any small changes that will help improve your mix and then send them to you. If we need a few listens to get the best mix ready for mastering, we take that time to do so.
