Mastering


Mastering can be a slightly confusing process, particularly for those new to the concept. To help you out, we've provided a simple and brief run down.


Mastering: the basic's

What is mastering?

'Mastering', also known as 'authoring', is the process where your data is assembled and structured so that it can be transferred onto a master disc in such a way that we can then make further accurate copies from it. It is a vital stage, and is basically the process of burning or transferring recorded audio and visual data in its final and finished format.

Why?

Mastering simply ensures that your work is reproduced to the highest possible standard, whether it's audio, visual, software, or a combination. We aim to give you the very best quality of play, with perfect clarity, providing you with a crystal clear, unblemished playback experience.

If you want to learn more about the mastering process, or there is something that you don't understand, please don't hesitate to contact us. Our team have been doing this for years and would love to pass on their knowledge to you.
