    SMR MASTERING

    I offer a comprehensive mastering service. Besides the classic single mastering for online distribution, I offer mastering for EPs and albums, both for online and for physical media like CD or Vinyl.

    I also take care of the creation of DDP images, implementation of ISRCs, embedding of meta data and more. As a certified provider I am also able to create an Apple Digital Masters suitable mastering.

    I work with selected high-end hardware devices as well as with industry standard plug-ins. In my work the emotion of the music is always in the foreground and my goal in every mastering process is to create a connection between the music and the listener.

    My passion for music drives my commitment to providing the highest quality mastering services to my clients. I take great pride in my work and am confident that I can help you achieve the sound you are envisioning. Together, we can refine your music into a polished final product that resonates deeply with your audience and stands out in today’s competitive music industry. Your artistic vision is paramount, and I look forward to collaborating with you to bring it to life.

    Since the beginning of 2023 I offer a mastering course (in german), which lasts a total of three days and is intended for people who already have previous experience in this field. You will find more information about the SMR MASTERING COURSE here.
