Artist and label support

We are facing a world-wide life changing situation and I feel we need to act to support each other. Because of this, I decided to give a temporary 33% discount and flexible payment terms for artists and labels affected by the situation, starting at the 18th of March on all masteringjobs. When you make use of the online order-system, during checkout use the coupon name "support". I will revise the situation again in April.

Mastering

I offer outstanding mastering to bands, musicians, labels, studios, and producers.

I use only the best custom-built analog hardware and digital software to improve the clarity, definition, and depth of your precious recordings.

Stem Mastering

With stem mastering individual audio stems are grouped together for independent control and processing.

Most of the times stem-mastering is not needed and will not make your master better. The maximum amount of stems I will work with is 5.

Payment

Full payments should be done upfront.

I prefer the use of the online order system for regular per track mastering. You can place the order and pay online using various payment options like paypal, iDeal, creditcard and sofort. In case of an album or specific wishes that will not fit the online order system, please provide me with all this information: companyname, contactname, adress, VAT number, emailadres and other details. You will receive an agreed upon invoice and after the payment is take care of I will start mastering.

All prices are excluding 21% VAT.

“Da Goose Mastering’s friendly service has communication as key, so don’t hesitate to contact me with your questions. I look forward to working with you!”
