HOW-TO

I handle receiving of material mostly through online transfers. To keep transfers safe and organized, not leaving any of Your valuable material left online I advise you to stay away from direct upload sites that leaves material online for longer time periods. My recommendation is that transfers are handled directly through the email based transfer service, WeTransfer.com. By using WeTransfer the download link is sent directly to and only to my email address, this way everything is kept safe and tidy.

DELIVERY OF DIGITAL MATERIAL

  • WAV-, BWF-, AIFF- or high resoultion 1-bit DSDIFF-, DSF-, WSD-format.
  • 16-bit 44Khz or higher.
  • Leave out any heavy stereo bus compression or limiting.
  • Turn off all normalizing, maximizing and dithering.

  • DELIVERY OF ANALOG TAPE

  • If you've recorded or mixed to analog tape Backstreets Mastering also accepts 1/4" tape and can master Your tracks directly off tape and deliver them back to you in either digital format or master back to 1/4" tape.

  • For more information and details send an email and we'll discuss the matter further.

  • In special cases, where the material consists of eg. old live recordings that needs to be cleaned up or rescued, the material may be of lesser quality. Leave out any heavy stereo bus compression, limiting, normalizing, maximizing and dithering of your mixes prior to sending your tracks for mastering.

    The mastered tracks will be available for You online on a secure FTP-server, Dropbox or sent via WeTransfer.com in 24-bit WAV-format suitable for digital distribution.

    If you plan to send your material to a pressing plant, at your request, a Redbook Standard Audio Master Disc can be encoded and sent to you by mail along with a digital DDP-image of the physical master disc uploaded together with the digital master tracks. (read Rates for more information).
