We have been mastering music for many years now at RDMS recording studio.
In that time we have mastered commercial releases both here in Adelaide and for overseas markets.
By classic
definition, audio mastering is the final creative process in producing a CD for
release.
Mastering is critical if you want your music to sound it's best in a wide range of playing environments.
The Music business is a highly competitive industry and commercial CD's that have
not been
properly mastered are rare indeed.

Typically songs go through a number of processes such as equalization,
compression
and excitation. Fades and additional editing can occur, the end
result being
a professional sounding product that is balanced and has a sense of
continuity.
If you plan on retail sales and/or getting serious airplay, mastering is
essential.
For an example of our mastering
services go to the samples page.
A typical song takes about 20- 30 minutes to
master properly.
Getting the best out of a recording takes years of ear training and specialized
equipment, including a listening environment that translates the sound accurately
into the real world.
Radio, mp3 players, car stereos and home systems all color
sound in different
ways. A good master will sound great, no matter what it's played on.
