A master that arrives already compressed and or limited greatly reduces the ability of the engineer to deliver the best sounding master possible.<\/p>\n<p>Masters with excessive level, clipping or audible distortion may also prevent us from mastering your project to its fullest potential. Leaving 3-4 dbs of headroom during mixdown is a good rule to follow to avoid clipping and distortion on your master.<\/p>\n<p>If any of the above issues are found on your submitted master we may request that you correct the issue and submit a new master before we proceed.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Submitting Your Mastering Project You must supply a mixed down, stereo master in one of the formats below.
