MY PROCESS

Hi, my name is Elijah!
I've been mixing and mastering professionally for over 15 years now. 

I understand how important it is for you to communicate with your fans through your music - to share your life story and experiences in a way that truly resonates. 

Just as much as it matters to you, it matters to me to ensure every bit of your musical message, every ear-catching detail woven into the arrangement shines through drawing your fans into the immersive journey you've crafted for them. 

That’s why I’ve developed a process for working with artists to ensure we get the very best result and mutual satisfaction by the end of the project. 

Here’s how we’ll work together: 

1. Understanding Your Vision

To start, I’d love to learn more about your song. Please share the demo and any reference tracks (commercially released songs that capture the sound you’re aiming for). 

2. Diving into the Details

I’ll also need the raw stems of your song to evaluate the production quality and identify any issues that should be addressed before moving on to mixing.

If necessary, we can discuss re-recording certain elements, providing alternative versions of specific instruments, or supplying MIDI clips for virtual instruments to allow for further layering or replacement on my end.

An essential step that ensures I can GUARANTEE to transform your source material into the highest-quality music product! 

NO FEES involved at this stage yet. 

3. Communication

We’ll arrange a chat or call to discuss the finer details of your project, such as:
• The story behind the song and the overall vibe you want to convey to your audience
• Specific elements you have a clear vision for and would like me to focus on
• Alternative approaches or techniques to enhance your arrangement and maximize the mixed song emotional impact
• Any requirements for pitch and timing corrections or guitar reamping and fees for these extra services.  

4. Payment, Mixing!

Once everything is set, and I have all the necessary files along with a clear understanding of your expectations for the final sound, we’ll proceed with payment. 

Then, the mixing process BEGINS!

5. Revisions

Each mixing and mastering package includes 3 free revisions. Additional revisions are available for $20 each.

To ensure smooth communication, please be as specific as possible with your requests. For example, mention exact timestamps instead of general terms like "end of the pre-chorus" or "in the bridge" to minimize confusion and save time.

If you're looking for a specific effect but aren’t sure of its name, I recommend sharing references with timestamps where the effect is used. This will help me understand exactly what you're aiming for. 

6. Finalizing Deliverables

Once you’re satisfied with the result, I can provide additional versions of the track upon request (available with Mixing and Mastering packages only). These can be an Instrumental version, a Live Performance version, Acapella. 

Don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions. 

LOOKING FORWARD TO WORKING WITH YOU!
