I am Brandon Fitzgerald and I offer cheap digital mastering at ThrashMasters, in Santa Cruz, CA. It may be a home setup, but I can do some killer shit to maximize your recording.
The goal is to make your recording to sound huge, with crisp highs, tight punchy lows, and smooth mids. Also make the track transitions seamless, whether it be track order, spacing, cross-fades, sound clips, or special effects.
I would say I have a qualified ear. I have been an active guitarist, vocalist, and song writer for over 10 years and am very particular about precise tone. I have been mastering seriously now for a couple of years (and tinkering around before that). I first began taking my favorite albums that could use a little sound enhancement, and tweaking them to suit my taste.
Small list of bands I've worked with:
Abhorrance, Aiden, Brain Drill, Burn At The Stake, Good Neighbor Policy, Los Dryheavers, Out The Game, Set It Straight, Set Your Goals, Stalins War, Strike Out, Satic Revolution, Crucial Unicorn, Take Warning, The Taste of Blood, Uzi Suicide, the Wrath
Personal fun re-masters: Fury 66, Pantera, Slayer, The Haunted, Bane, Dying Fetus, Lagwagon, Nofx, Good Riddance, Terror, Superjoint Ritual, Metallica, Minor Threat, etc...
Ask me if you want to hear!
