We do not have a recording studio.  With high quality home studio recording equipment available today the trend is now that artist will record their tracks at home therefore we found no reason to make the investment in equipment for a sound studio.

We are equipped with state of the art Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) and out board gear which allows us to offer post production of your recorded tracks.  We have full capability to equalize, balance and fix any problems with your recording.  Everything you can do in the studio, with the exception of recording, we can do ... and the fees are very reasonable.

We will ensure that your project sounds the way you envisioned.  We will make recommendations, but the bottom line is  it's YOUR project, not ours.  You wrote it, you know how you want it to sound. 

 
 
PMCD Creation


This is the term for a "Pre Mastered CD"  Basically this is the CD that one would send to a duplication service.

We create all PMCD(s) to Red Book Standard and we provide you with a Bar Code so your product will be accepted for Retail sale in stores

The following additional items can be added to the disk as deviations to the standard format.


 CD-TEXT encoding
 
CD-TEXT is the data that you see on various players that show the Artist name, name of the song and other information such as name of the album.  If you do not have your PMCD enocded with this data and you wish to have it later, the duplication companies will charge you for this.
 

ISRC encoding
 


We have the capability and an assigned company ISRC code to digitally encode each of your tracks on the PMCD.  ISRC encoding is something that your standard run-of-the-mill music disk creation software will not do.

 If this is an item that you are interested in, then it is best to do it on the PMCD. If you do not encode the disk then, the duplication serivce must encode the data and this will cost you again.

What is the ISRC?

The ISRC (International Standard Recording Code) is the international identification system for sound recordings and music videorecordings. Each ISRC is a unique and permanent identifier for a specific recording which can be permanently encoded into a product as its digital fingerprint. Encoded ISRC provide the means to automatically identify recordings for royalty payments.

Benefits of using ISRC
