Hear it for yourself

The rough that came in.
The mix I sent back.

Real client songs, nothing staged. Press play and you’ll hear the rough first, then the mix. Flip between them any time and listen for yourself.

ROUGH MIX
Stop By Here
Larry Hurston · Gospel
0:000:00

Produced by Darius Seay. Rough and mix both as printed, untouched. No loudness tricks.

Twelve real before and afters. Gospel, worship, CCM. Tap any cover.

Sound familiar?

You can hear it isn’t there yet. You just can’t get it there.

  • It sounds big in your room and small in the car.
  • The vocal is either buried or sitting on top of the track.
  • The low end is mud, or it isn’t there at all.
  • You’ve bounced version twelve and you still don’t trust it.

Closing that gap is the whole job. What comes back is the version you release, not another draft you sit on.

Mixed and masteredNothing has to happen after.
What changes

You stop being the person who is almost finished.

You’re the artist with a record out, or the leader whose church heard its own song on a Sunday, or the producer whose name means it shipped and it sounded right.

It holds up next to the records you love

And it still sounds like you.

It translates

Earbuds, the car, the church PA. The mix you approved is the mix they hear.

It’s done

Mixed and mastered, every version you need, delivered on one private page.

The offer

Everything you get for $1,000 a song.

One price, everything included, so you know exactly what it costs before you send a file.

  • Mixed and mastered, start to finish

    One multi-platinum engineer from rough to master. Nothing has to happen after.

  • Unlimited revisions on song one

    On every new project, song one keeps going until it’s right, because it sets the sound for everything after it.

  • Three revision rounds on every song after

    Need more? $150 a round, and you’ll know before you get there.

  • Your notes, right on the timeline

    Revisions run securely through MIXNotes, so every note lands at the second it belongs to. Your copy comes with it.

  • Light vocal tuning included

    Missed notes are covered. Full tuning is there if you want it: $299 for the lead, $499 for every vocal.

  • Every version you’ll need

    Instrumental, TV track, acapella, vocal up and vocal down.

  • Stems and committed tracks

    Session stems, and committed tracks if you ever want them.

  • A private delivery page, kept safe

    Everything in one place for at least a year. You hear before anything is archived, and there are offline backups of the backups.

  • Your first mix within 7 days

    You hear real progress in a week, not a month.

If song one isn’t right, we keep going.

Every new project, and the first time we work together, song one gets unlimited revisions until it’s right. The risk is on us, not you, because song one sets the sound for the whole record. And you don’t pay the second half until your first mix is in your hands.

For producers

Bring the whole roster. One engineer, one sound.

Producing for more than one artist? Send the projects over. Every record gets the same ears and the same standard, and you get one person to text instead of a different mixer on every release.

  • Volume pricing on albums and multi-artist work, priced per song.
  • Song one of every project gets unlimited revisions.
  • Your artists’ notes land right on the timeline, not in a long email thread.

Is this for you?

Better to know now than after you’ve paid.

This is for you if

  • The song is written and the takes are picked.
  • You’re releasing it, not shelving it.
  • You want it to hold up next to the records you love.
  • You’re a producer with more songs coming.

This isn’t for you if

  • The recording isn’t there yet. I’ll tell you straight.
  • What the song needs is production or recording, not a mix.
  • You’re shopping for the cheapest mix you can find.
  • You want to learn to do it yourself. That’s Mixing Discipleship, just below.

Questions

Everything people ask before they send a song.

Is this right for me?
If the takes are picked and the song is finished, yes. If they aren’t, I’ll tell you that instead of taking your money. And if you want to learn how it was done as much as you want it done, Mixing Discipleship is the better fit. I’d rather point you there than sell you this. See Mixing Discipleship
How does payment work?
Option 1$500 starts it. The other $500 is due once mix one is in your hands and we begin revisions.Option 2Pay in full, and you get priority scheduling.A recordThat’s the rate for a single. A record is priced per song and it comes down at volume. Tell me how many songs and where they are, and I’ll put a number together the same day.
What if it comes back wrong?
The first song carries unlimited rounds. Every new project, and the first time we work together, song one keeps going until it’s right. I carry that risk rather than you, because song one sets the sound everything after it follows. After that it’s three rounds on every song, run through MIXNotes, so your notes land on the timeline at the second they belong to instead of in a paragraph I have to decode. Your copy comes with the mix. Need more rounds? $150 each, and I’ll tell you before we get there.
How long does it take?
Your first mix lands within 7 days, and I’ll tell you where things stand before you pay, so you’re never wondering.
What do you need from me?
Your multitracks, with the takes comped. Not stems, the actual session files. If you’re not certain what that means for your setup, say so and I’ll walk you through it.
Is vocal tuning included?
If you’ve got some missed notes, I’ve got you. Light tuning that serves the mix is part of mixing, and it’s always good to have another set of ears on it. Heavy tuning and repair is different: that’s hours of specialist work, and a dedicated tuning editor at a lower rate is often the sensible route. Want it all under one roof instead? $299 for the full lead vocal treatment, or $499 for every vocal on the song: leads, backgrounds, pitch and timing, the whole thing. Named before you pay, never a surprise after.
What if mixing isn’t what my song needs?
Then I’ll tell you. Plenty of what sounds like a mixing problem is really a production or recording problem, and you deserve to hear that from me rather than pay to find out. Mixing is collaborative anyway: what’s in the production, what you’re happy with, what you’re still not settled on. That conversation is part of the work, not something we have after it.
What happens to my files afterwards?
A private delivery page with everything on it, up for at least a year. I tell you before anything is archived, so you always get the chance to pull it down. And I keep it after that: a local archive, plus offline backups of the backups.
Have you mixed my genre?
Probably, and if I haven’t I’ll tell you straight. I grew up on my mom’s mix radio playing every genre and my dad’s southern rock: Boston, Styx, Eddie Money, Fleetwood Mac, Scorpions. Lots of guitar. Then I was a product of the 80s, 90s and early 2000s, so I’m into all of it. There’s not really a genre I don’t at least respect. I’ve mixed a ton of it, and at a high level: rock, pop, jazz, folk, indie, singer-songwriter, reggae, ska, ska punk, hardcore, emo, orchestras, a cappella, barbershop quartets. I’ve been doing this since I was ten or eleven. If you have a reference, I have an answer to your mixing problems, and I’d love to collaborate with you to get the sound you hear in your head.
