Online Mixing and Mastering Service
The Best Mix for Your Song
Mixing your music at a professional level is the final step to success. Your music will be of the highest quality, and you, as an artist, will have more time to focus on other things like composition.
Online Mixing and Mastering Service
Audio mixing involves combining multiple tracks (bass, drums, vocals, guitars, keyboards, etc.) into a stereo file. Professional mixing, in line with the quality standards of major record labels, requires in-depth technical knowledge, vast experience, a great musical taste, as well as high-quality equipment and acoustically treated rooms. The expertise, equipment, and passion needed are at your disposal to make your music sound extremely good.
Experience as a Sound Technician for Mixing
Mixing and mastering have long been my greatest passion. It even became an obsession from the moment I first encountered sound and its effects. The transformation that takes place when using the right plugins has always fascinated me. Thanks to my extensive experience, I know how to make each tone sound as it should, always in line with the client's expectations.
Mixing is an integral part of the music production process to ensure that the hard work invested in your songs sounds the best it possibly can. It requires a complete understanding of the style and direction to make your recording sound as it should.
Today, anyone can record a band, but it takes an experienced sound technician to turn those songs and ideas into a polished mix and master. And, of course, a music producer is needed to understand this entire process and achieve the expected optimal result. This is what sets Lucas Toledo apart from other recording studios. He can mix and master your "creations" and make them sound as they should.
You will find that my prices are very affordable for the sound quality result obtained, the thorough work I do, and the experience and specialization I offer. I can assure you that I always go beyond the expectations you have in mind, sometimes even exceeding the agreed-upon work, and I am naturally very perfectionistic.
With more than 15 years of experience and a broad career spanning practically every music genre, I am the perfect person for what you are looking for in mixing your songs.
As a musician, and working with other musicians daily, I understand how tedious and frustrating it can be to spend hours and hours recording, mixing your projects, and still not achieving the desired results in terms of sound quality. That is now a thing of the past. Let me mix and/or master your "babies," and I will treat them as if they were my own, giving them all the time and attention needed to achieve the best possible result.

What does online mixing and mastering include?
-
2 revisions included with each mix
It's your music and your vision. If I don't get it right the first time, I will continue tweaking and refining your song until it sounds just like you envisioned. Remember, I'm here to fulfill your musical vision, not to inflate my ego, so rest assured that you'll be able to make the changes you'd like for your song. You can send any reference mix so that I can get as close as possible.
-
Fast delivery
I understand that there are deadlines for releasing an album, etc. So, I respect your time and deadlines! I'm not going to promise to finish your project by a specific date if I know I'm already completely booked on those dates. That is not professional, and it's not my style. However, I am very quick. My average delivery time is between 7 and 10 business days. For those in a hurry, I also offer a rush service if you need the mix within 2 business days.
-
Vocal editing
If necessary, I will correct the pitch of the lead vocal track and the backing vocals without any problem. Autotune, Melodyne, call it what you want. Your tracks will sound like those of your favorite artists.
Given that the music market is already quite competitive, it’s important to offer your songs the same level of quality. High-quality music shines on its own and is worth investing in. Therefore, make sure to:

HOW THE MIXING AND MASTERING SERVICE WORKS
The most important thing when mixing your song is to meet your expectations. That’s why we will have some feedback sessions to ensure your expectations are being met. What you tell me and this feedback are crucial in shaping the final sound of the mix, and I work closely with each artist throughout the entire process. After receiving your clean tracks and discussing the vision for your song, I will create a mix that aligns with that specific vision. (If tracks are missing, or if I have some recommendations that could help produce a better final mix, I’ll let you know).
Once you’ve sent me all the audio tracks for the song, I will first check that everything opens correctly and verify if there are any errors or missing files.
If everything is in order, I’ll start working on your song while keeping you updated on the progress or if I have any questions regarding the song. You will receive your fully finished song within 7 to 10 business days. Mixes will generally be completed in the order they are received. Please note that I am always busy, so if you need a faster delivery, you will need to request the "Rush Service" for an additional cost.
How to Prepare Your Tracks for Mixing and Proceed
Recommended steps to follow before sending a song for the mixing service:
-
Remove any processing such as EQs and/or compressors from each track. (If there is a special effect that creates a specific sound on a track, it can be left on that track).
-
Name each track with simple names (e.g., Kick, Snare, Bass, Guitar, Vocals, etc.). This can be done before or after exporting the tracks.
-
Export each track from the beginning (second 0, or bar 1) of each song so that all tracks start from the same point and are perfectly aligned.
-
The preferred format is 24-bit .WAV or .AIF, and at 44.1kHz (if you haven’t started recording yet), but if you already have everything recorded, export it at the same quality it was recorded.
-
After exporting all the tracks, place them in a folder, name the folder with the song title, and include a Word document or similar specifying the tempo and any notes you think I should know.
-
Optional but helpful items to include in this folder: MIDI files used, Guitar Pro, the chord with which the song starts, direct guitar tracks and/or those passed through re-amping, etc. A track with the type of delay you use or want. Everything helps to achieve the best result.
-
Compress the folder into a .Zip file and send it to me via WeTransfer.
-
Count the tracks and place the appropriate order for your mixing and/or mastering service.
-
In 7 to 10 business days (2 to 3 business days with Rush Service), you will receive your finished song.
"Feedback moment"
If you want changes to the sound, send us a list of tweaks. 2 revisions included.
We repeat the "Feedback moment."; another list of tweaks if necessary, and done!
