"best out of three mastering ?"
i have got to have a go at inventing a new magic process to do something on the internet that nobody thought of first
it just keeps looking like free money to me

I'm also wondering about the cohesive focus and quality across an album/project from one ME only as opposed to this model.
Doesn't this also mean that they are cutting their rates down to a third?

This was my first thought. Can't judge the method as I've not heard these results, but I'm fairly skeptical. Seems like more of a marketing ploy than a revolutionary idea.

Perhaps they've gotten fed up with customers doing shoot-outs between mastering companies and are hoping to grab their business this way?

I have not been "polishing" my already-mastered material.
Am I missing out on something?
Is there a secret special process that I do not know?
Help me out here...

If anyone bites on this service, especially at $99. per track, they haven't begun to do their due diligence!
No engineer credits, no gear list or studio pics. While these items don't tell the whole story, they will tell you most of it!

I thought it was a myth myself, but I recently used Pledge (Pledge Protection Plus, specifically) on my Harley and subsequently on my car. Wow. Better than showroom in around 3 minutes. Really? Joe |
Honest. Amazing. And the chrome...
PLEXUS is another one - And getting back to mastering (partially, anyway) if you have a "hazy" disc that you need to copy or extract from, a quick buff with some Plexus has saved my rear more than once. It's like a miracle spray. And it makes Plexiglas/acrylic windshields (and the whole bike for that matter) look like wet glass. Originally made for aircraft shields and used by the U.S. Military on all acrylic shields (aircraft, helmet, etc.).

My question for Thom: Where/How do you find these mutated mastering sites? TW |
One of my clients showed it to me and asked, of course, if I could give them three different versions of each of their songs. I told then that if it were on the clock I could give them as many versions as they wanted. They decided to go with one version of each. Maybe the next time this client will go with the three for one operation. I just thought it was "interesting"

MultiMasering is to mastering as...
...endless fix it in the mix activities are to track it right and just set the levels.
The term "Masters of Indecision" comes to mind.
Next thing you know someone will offer a service that picks the best of those 3 mastering treatments for clients... Or that continuously morphs between them when you are stuck between two.
Why dont we just do a dozen masters and let folks vote on them via the internet?
