With each mastering session, the final audio Master files are tested to ensure that no digital or analogue clipping is happening inside your Master. With the CD and HD quality wave files, I specially set them so that they can be safely converted to any audio format of your choice with minimal to no digital clipping. Note: If you convert the Mp3 files to other formats, you may create digital clipping.

.... Checkout .....
I have created two options for you to Pay for my full mastering service. The 1-pass service is "try before you buy" only.
TRADITIONAL DEPOSIT STYLE: Pay a 50% refundable deposit at the commencement of the mastering session, and then once you are satisfied with the results, pay the remaining 50%.
PAY LATER: I will give samples of your masters. If you are satisfied, pay for the entire cost of the mastering session up-front at the end of the session. At this time, the Pay later option is for returning clients only.
