haha buddy thats so abstract.

Indeed, but its easy to answer. We use ears + experience + hi-end tools(eq,compression,expansion,stereo wideners/mono makes,limiters,analyzers) and last but not the least and probably most important is acoustically treated room and well positioned hi quality speakers.
One of the simplest tricks while mastering is to level-match the mastered file with the un-mastered one and do A/B comparison between them. This gives you a true understanding of whether your mastering improved the sound or worsened it. Many young producers think if it sounds louder its better, but it is not:) Try this A/B comparison and then you find out.

I am not gonna lie, Your setup gave me a boner. Interested to give you guys a go.
FYI I am an Ableton producer and definitely DONT mix in the red hahaha. Can I send you guys a file so you can give me a preview later?

Sure mate, shoot your mix using this link: https://www.wetransfer.com/?to=emery@ma ... =Mastering

I didn't mean all Ableton producers do red:) My statistics will change once I see more good mixes with some headroom:)

Thanks for that! I guess the next thing I need is an acoustically treated room and monitors.

Very promising services. I was wondering if you work with American artists, if so how what is your policy on the currency exchange?

Yeah sure Lorek, we set no limits and work worldwide. Currency exchange is done by Paypal.
I know its not great rate wise and I loose once withdrawing and converting from EUR to my local currency. But what other option have we got?

So best if you convert USD to EUR in your account before payment.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Got my sample back guys. Below i've uploaded a soundcloud link where you can see my mixdown vs the guy's mastering. You can even reference it vs my home mastered track in my sig. You can see in theirs they've subtly corrected the mix to eek out a little more headroom. I'm impressed and will be using these guys in the future.

Soundcloud

Good shit
