The Foo Fighters’ influence on music mastering

It’s an organic, come-as-you-are approach that’s defined the Foo Fighters’ sound, and no doubt other bands are now more likely to drift in that direction. We’re not sure every band can pull off the kind of magic the Foo Fighters can in a garage.Contact us if you want some help with your sound …or if you can’t afford to have all that awesome gear in your garage.

It’s your music. Your vision. Your sound.

Do you really need a mastering studio?

“Someone who is creatively more detached from the material can give you a more objective view and space for reflection — for example do you want the vocal to be very in the foreground or more submerged in the mix?” A mastering studio will have all the technology you need to give voice to your best music.

Is CD mastering different than for vinyl?

Is CD mastering different than for vinyl? The short answer is yes. A needle needs more room with the louder the program is an interesting point, something that we don’t need to worry about with mastering for a CD. Hard sibilance, loud ride cymbals, wide bass, a resonant frequency around 1kHz – these factors can all cause the needle to jump out of its groove. Avoiding that is true craft. It’s an art.
