The Art and Science of Mastering

Mastering is the final step that brings out the full potential of your music. Your audio is carefully fine-tuned to add clarity, punch, volume, depth, and much more. A group of songs done at different times or studios can be made to sound like a cohesive unit. Volume levels and tonal characteristics from track to track can be optimized. Clicks, pops and other unwanted anomalies can be removed.

In addition to our affordable rates, we are committed to providing the best possible experience for every artist. This means working closely with every client to achieve not just a "commercial" level of quality, but also the specific "sound" they're looking for.

The Facility

Acoustik Musik, Ltd. was designed with the best possible acoustics in mind. We have a cathedral ceiling in our main mastering room. Our walls are 12 inches thick filled with fiberglass and featuring offset isolated studs. The concrete floor is 8 inches thick and our monitors rest on solid granite plinths that weigh over 150 lbs each. Our studio was designed by Don Mitchell of DSM and Associates in Brunswick, OH.. We take pride in knowing that what you hear in our studios will sound great anywhere you listen.
