Master → Cut → Finished Record
Vinyl Mastering must be purchased with a lathe-cut record order. This is not a standalone digital mastering service. One workflow. One production chain. No guesswork.
No Mastering Needed?
Add 1 for $10 — both sides sequenced.
If your audio is already prepared, we will space, order, and build Side A / Side B from your PQ sheet or instructions.
Your free pre-mastering still applies. This option is for layout and sequencing only — not per-song mastering.
What It Does
- Balances levels across each side
- Controls low-end for groove stability
- Manages stereo width for cutter safety
- Shapes high frequencies to reduce distortion
- Optimizes sides before cutting begins
The loudest song determines how loud the entire side can be cut. Mastering ensures consistent sides and stable groove geometry.
What You Can Send
- Unmastered mixes (ideal)
- Streaming masters (acceptable)
- Individual tracks for assembly
- Fully prepared Side A / Side B files
- PQ sheet (track order & spacing)
If needed, we can help build your PQ sheet before mastering begins.
What You Receive
- Vinyl-safe master per song
- Mid/side and phase correction
- Low-end centering below ~150 Hz
- EQ calibrated for cutter head behavior
- Side sequencing optimization (if requested)
Most singles complete in 2–4 business days. Album-length projects typically complete in 7–14 business days.
A great record is not just recorded — it is prepared for the medium that carries it.
