Upload Your Files
The file uploader is below. Please do not upload files if you haven’t filled out the EP/Album or the Single Song project form unless somebody else is submitting the form, or if this file upload is to send updated or missing files for a project already in progress.
Make sure your producer or mix engineer prepares files intended for mastering
It’s important that your mixing engineer knows that you are having your project mastered somewhere so they can provide files with optimal dynamics/headroom, and in the best possible format/resolution to master from.
If your mix engineer has been providing loud/limited/maximized reference versions during the mixing process (which is common), please include those versions as well so it’s known what you’ve been used to hearing.
Preparing your files prior to uploading
Please listen carefully to each mix file (the exact files being used for mastering) to check for unexpected errors or issues, which can happen more often than you’d think. Double checking for errors before uploading will help avoid delays and/or additional costs.
It’s recommend to make a folder containing all the audio files (and a .jpg of the front cover art if available, not required), and then zip the folder before uploading. This helps prevent file corruption during the transfer. Please include any helpful notes in the message section.
Windows Users: please do not make .rar files as they are often not Mac friendly. Please use the preferred .zip format, specifically.
Upload Confirmation
You will receive a confirmation email when the files are successfully uploaded. If you don’t receive a confirmation email, please upload the file(s) again until you do, and be sure the confirmation email didn’t end up in your spam folder or an alternate email inbox.
