What is Audio Mastering?

Audio mastering, sometimes referred to as post production is the process of adjusting and preparing your stereo audio tracks in such a way as to optimize and standardize their playback on any CD playback device. In the mixing process, you adjust each component of a song so they all blend together well. In the mastering process, the completed song is then adjusted for optimal playback and to blend well with onther songs on the same album.

How does Crazy Daisy Productions compare to other mastering companies?

There are basically 3 types of mastering facilities:

1. Very low cost economy mastering facilities that usually charge about $50 to $150 for most CD's. These facilities generally offer very little in the way of services—either the most minimal of adjustments or equipment or staff that can't justify charging any more than this.

2. High profile facilities in high-priced locations with all the most expensive equipment and/or the biggest names on their client rosters. These facilities offer excellent services with the name to back it—if you can afford the typical $600-$1,000 price for most CD's.

3. Mastering studios that provide great high-quality services at a mid-range price. If you feel that your CD deserves complete, full-service mastering provided by experienced staff using great equipment and a proper facility, but don't want to pay the high price tag of a name brand mastering studio, then this is the type of mastering facility for you. This is Crazy Daisy Mastering. Crazy Daisy Productions uses modern computer technologies to help us offer excellent mastering results at an exceptionally low price.

How can Crazy Daisy Productions offer so much?

Crazy Daisy Productions is unique in the mastering industry in that we have developed our own proprietary computer software to assist in our mastering work. We have assembled an intelligent program that scans the tracks on your CD to determine how fundamental effects should best be applied and adds them as needed on a track-by-track basis. An experienced engineer then fine tunes the resulting audio output to achieve the best possible playback. In this way we can provide complete state-of-the-art mastering at a reduced price without cutting any corners.
