MASTERING
Take Your Mixes to the Next Level
At Odeholm Audio, Buster offers a range of mastering services designed to make your music stand out.
Whether you need a competitive digital master, a warm analog finish, or the flexibility of stem mastering, Buster ensures your tracks achieve the clarity, depth, and volume they need to compete with the best in modern metal.
Mastering Options:
DIGITAL MASTERING
Powerful Results, Fully In-the-Box
Buster will master your tracks using his collection of high-quality digital plugins. This approach enhances the depth and clarity of your mix while addressing any unwanted frequencies. Expect a competitive volume boost that ensures your music holds its own alongside other artists in your genre.
ANALOG MASTERING
Classic Sound, Analog Character
For those looking for a more classic, organic sound, Buster offers analog mastering using his collection of SSL and Neve hardware. The subtle harmonic distortion and non-linearities from analog gear provide a warmth and character that some digital plugins can’t fully replicate - perfect for those who prefer a more traditional sonic touch.
STEM MASTERING
Flexibility for Enhanced Control
With stem mastering, you send individual instrumental groups (e.g., vocals, guitars, drums) rather than the final stereo mix. This allows Buster to make detailed adjustments to each element, achieving a more refined result. If you’re not completely satisfied with your mix and want a more noticeable improvement than standard stereo mastering can offer, stem mastering gives you the extra control needed to elevate your sound.
