The fine print

No add-ons. Just the rules of the room.

Nothing here is an upsell — it's what governs every order, whatever its size.

Revisions

Free · 30 days

In-scope tweaks — levels, EQ, balance, fades, tone — are free until you're happy, as one consolidated set of notes, within 30 days of delivery.

Payment

Card · via Stripe

Pay by card, processed securely by Stripe. Prices are final — the studio isn't VAT-registered, so the number on this page is the number on the invoice.

5+ tracks

Priced individually

Larger orders are a quote, not self-serve checkout. Build your order as normal and I'll confirm timeline and price within one working day.

The clock starts on file acceptance

You pay, then upload. I review your files within 24 hours — usually a few. The turnaround (3–14 working days by service) starts when I accept them.

Cancel before acceptance, full refund

If you cancel before I've started, every penny comes back. Once files are accepted and work begins, the remedy is revisions — not refunds.

New direction, new job

Revisions cover the original brief. New stems, a new arrangement, or a change of creative direction is a fresh order — I'll say so before any clock runs.

In detail

What each one involves.

The menu above is where you order. These pages are where each service is explained properly — what it does, who sends it, and how to prepare your files.

Before you ask

The questions every artist sends first.

Still wondering about something? Ask away — the contact form comes straight to me, and it's me who writes back, usually within a day. No question is too small, and there's no sales pitch waiting on the other end.

  • Mastering lands in 3–5 working days, a full mix in 7–10, and a mix + master in 10–14. The clock starts when I accept your files.

  • WAV or AIFF at 24-bit. Leave around −6 dBFS of headroom on the mix bus and take any limiter off the master bus. For stem jobs, export consistent full-length stems from a single start point.

  • Free revisions until you're happy — no cap, no paid tier. Revisions are in scope to the original brief, consolidated into one set of notes, within 30 days of delivery.

  • Release-ready files: 24-bit and 16-bit WAV plus a 320k MP3, optimised for streaming loudness. Stems and alternate versions on request.

  • Yes. New clients get a free test master — the first half of one track, finished, at no charge. You hear your own music mastered before you commit a penny.

  • Per track, in GBP, at checkout, by card. Prices are final: the studio isn't VAT-registered, so the number on this page is the number on the invoice.

  • That's a quote, not self-serve checkout. Build your order on the menu as normal — service, quantity, and any track notes — and submit it as a quote request. I price orders that size individually and get back to you within one working day.

Still deciding

Hear yours first — on the house.

Send half a track and get it back mastered, free. It answers the only question that matters better than any pricing table.
