Services include mixing and mastering for music, as well as audio production for podcasts and audiobooks. Expertise spans across various genres and formats, ensuring high-quality sound for diverse projects.

Services are primarily provided remotely, enabling collaboration with clients worldwide. Occasional in-person studio sessions are possible depending on location and project requirements.

I've been working in audio production for over a decade, collaborating with major labels, independent artists, and content creators across various genres and formats.

Mixing is the process of balancing individual tracks within a song, applying effects, and creating spatial relationships between elements. Mastering is the final step that optimizes the overall sound for distribution, ensuring consistency across all playback systems and platforms.

A hybrid approach is used depending on project needs. Work is primarily done in the digital domain for flexibility and precision, with access to state-of-the-art analog equipment including tape machines, compressors, and EQs when beneficial. This allows combining analog warmth and character with digital efficiency and recall capabilities.

Work spans a wide range of genres including pop, rock, electronic, hip-hop, R&B, jazz, classical, and more. The approach adapts to the specific needs of each genre whilst maintaining the highest sound quality standards.

For mixing projects, individual track stems should be provided in high-quality format (WAV or AIFF, 44.1kHz/48kHz, 24-bit), along with a rough mix for reference and any notes about the creative vision. Properly labelled and organised files help streamline the process.

Most projects include multiple revision rounds to fine-tune the sound. The exact number depends on project scope and package selected, and will be agreed upon before work begins.

Yes, comprehensive podcast production services are available including editing, mixing, noise reduction, and mastering to ensure podcasts sound polished and engaging across all platforms.

Audiobook production requires specialised techniques focused on voice clarity, consistent levels, proper pacing, and careful attention to technical specifications required by platforms like Audible. All industry standards are met whilst maintaining a natural, engaging sound.

Yes, voice enhancement services improve clarity, warmth, and presence whilst removing distracting elements like mouth clicks, background noise, and inconsistent levels. This creates a polished, immersive listening experience.

Turnaround time varies based on project complexity and scope. Simple projects may be completed in a few days, whilst more complex work naturally requires additional time. A realistic timeline will be provided after reviewing project details. Rush services are available when schedules permit.

Clear communication is maintained throughout projects via email or preferred platforms. Calls are available to discuss details, and regular progress updates are provided. The goal is ensuring the creative vision is fully understood and realized.

Files can be sent through standard transfer services like Dropbox, Google Drive, or WeTransfer. For larger projects, access to a secure file transfer system can be provided. Clear instructions are given based on each project's specific needs.

Pricing is determined by project complexity, scope, and timeframe. Custom quotes are provided based on specific needs rather than a one-size-fits-all approach. Detailed project information enables accurate, personalized pricing.

Payment methods and structure are discussed during project setup. Typically, an upfront deposit secures the booking, with the balance due upon completion before final file delivery. Specific payment terms will be outlined in the project agreement.

Yes, discounted rates are available for album projects, podcast series, and other multi-track productions. These packages are customised based on the number of tracks and specific project requirements.

Services include mixing, mastering, podcast production, and audiobook production. Clients provide properly prepared audio materials, and high-quality audio files are delivered upon completion. Multiple revision rounds are included (exact number depends on project package). Final deliverables are owned by the client upon full payment, while promotional usage rights are retained for portfolio purposes.

Services include: Mixing (balancing, panning, EQ, compression, and creative effects), Mastering (optimising loudness, tonal balance, and compatibility), Podcast Production (editing dialogue, noise reduction, adding music/effects, loudness normalisation), and Audiobook Production (editing narration, noise reduction, consistent loudness, chapter markers).

Services cover audio production using materials provided by the client. Songwriting, recording, extensive editing/tuning, or physical delivery are generally excluded unless explicitly agreed upon in writing and quoted separately.

Format: WAV (.wav). Sample Rate/Bit Depth: Should match session settings (minimum 24-bit recommended, no up/downsampling). Files should have sufficient headroom and avoid clipping/distortion. All processing should be removed from the master bus before export (unless it's a crucial creative element). Dry stems are preferred (no reverb, delay) unless effects are integral to the sound. All stems must start from 0:00 for proper alignment.

Use: G_TrackName.wav (Group Initial_Track Name, no spaces). Group Initials: V (Vocals), I (Instruments), D (Drums), B (Bass), K (Keys/Synths), SFX (Sound Effects), FX (Return FX), P (Percussion), O (Other). Examples: V_LeadVocal.wav, I_GtrSolo.wav, D_KickIn.wav.

Clients are responsible for reviewing all materials for accuracy, completeness, and quality before submission. If materials need correction after work has begun, the project may be paused until proper files are provided. Minor file fixes may be accommodated when possible, but this isn't guaranteed for all situations.

Two payment structures are typically offered: Split Payment (deposit before work begins, balance due upon completion) or Full Upfront Payment (enables earlier access to work-in-progress files). The specific structure, percentages, and timing will be outlined in the project agreement based on project type and scope.

Refund eligibility depends on project stage: Before work starts, full refunds are available. After work begins but before first version delivery, partial refunds may apply. After first version delivery, work has been completed and refunds are not available. Specific refund terms will be outlined in the project agreement.

The number of included revision rounds varies by project and package selected. Revisions cover adjustments based on original materials and goals - such as mix balance, levels, and minor edits. Major structural changes or new material additions are quoted separately. The specific revision count will be agreed upon before work begins.

Revisions beyond the included rounds incur additional fees, quoted based on complexity. Payment for additional revisions is due before work begins on those rounds.

Feedback on each version should be provided within ten (10) business days to keep projects moving forward. If no feedback is received within this timeframe, the version will be considered approved so work can progress.

Upon full payment, ownership of final deliverables transfers to the client. Session files, project files, and production techniques used to create the deliverables remain with the service provider.

Short snippets of final deliverables (maximum 60 seconds) may be used for promotional purposes. Projects may be included in portfolio and discography listings. Project titles, client/artist names, and service provider roles may be listed in promotional materials, websites, and professional platforms.

Credits should be included in all record label documentation, physical/digital releases, social media posts, articles, publications, and other public-facing materials. Credits should include the service provider's name and role (e.g., "Mixed by Giovanni Cordova", "Mastering: Giovanni Cordova"), following industry standards for the specific medium.

Project archiving varies by package level. Standard packages include secure storage during active project work. Extended archiving options (2 years, multi-year, or permanent) are available and will be specified in the project agreement based on the selected service level.

Turnaround time is estimated after reviewing project complexity and current workload. Timeline estimates are provided before work begins. While every effort is made to meet agreed timelines, delays beyond reasonable control (such as client material delays or technical issues) may affect delivery dates. Rush service is available when schedule permits, subject to additional fees.

Communication is primarily conducted via email, with responses typically provided within 24 business hours (Monday-Friday, excluding public holidays). Telephone calls can be scheduled in advance during business hours. A single primary contact person should be designated for each project to ensure consistent communication and decision-making.

Unreleased materials, project details, and confidential information are kept private and not shared with third parties without written consent, unless required by law. Confidentiality obligations remain in effect indefinitely, continuing even after project completion.

Total liability for any claim shall not exceed the total amount paid for the project. Liability does not extend to indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from services provided.
