Free??
Yes! We charge you nothing. Zero.
No fees, no subscriptions, no accounts – nothing.
But donations are most welcome. It's pay-what-you-want. Read on!
Online?
You send us your mixes (no pre-mastering or fades please) as stereo wave files via any public file server.
We return the mastered files to you the same way, usually within days.
Contact us for alternative formats, some of which may induce costs.
Manual?
Totally. No generic presets or algorithms.
We do all the audio mastering by ear. Every project is unique.
This service is human-to-human. No AI.
Audio mastering?
That’s the fine art of making your mixes really shine.
We adjust warmth, width and timbre balance - sometimes subtly, sometimes dramatically.
Just let us know in advance if you intend to distribute your audio on vinyl, streaming or CD.
Millhouse?
The studio is housed in an old, former watermill.
Our equipment is however fully modern or premium vintage.
But our most important assets are our experienced ears.
And it’s really free …?
Yep. But if you’re not happy after our second attempt with each mix, we will politely ask you to look elsewhere for your mastering needs. Let’s not go crazy.
Furthermore, time is not unlimited so we reserve the right to decline requests.
Usage?
You hold the same legal rights to use the mastered files as to the files you sent us.
However — the mastered files may not be redistributed claiming that anyone other than Millhouse Mastering (as of this website) accomplished the mastering.
Donations?
Yes, that's how we finance this. Pay what you want to pay! It's all up to you.
Simply click the Donate button below, and safely transfer your preferred sum via PayPal, depending on your budget and how pleased you are with the results. Thanks in advance!
Credit?
If you decide to use the mastered files publicly, please give us credit!
“Mastered at Millhouse Mastering” will do just fine. Add our logo if possible.
You will never have to pay us any royalties or fees.
Contact?
We will never share your email address with anybody.
But feel free to share our address with all your friends. :)
Equipment?
We use a combination of vintage analogue stuff and state-of-the-art digital tools. Whatever suits the project.
Clients?
All kinds. Karmakanic, Last Plane Out, Martin Jarl, Nilla Nielsen, Niclas Timmerby to name a few.
