Mixing/Mastering Policy

Please Read and Review this policy so we can properly assist you.

Pricing

Real Composition provides remote mixing priced by submitted audio-track count:

  • Up to 12 tracks: $100 CAD

  • 13–24 tracks: $150 CAD

  • 25–48 tracks: $225 CAD

  • 49–80 tracks: $325 CAD

  • More than 80 tracks: custom quote

A stereo instrumental counts as one track. Vocal, instrumental and effect tracks are counted separately. File condition and editing requirements may affect the final quote.

Deliverables

Each tier covers one song up to five minutes and includes:

  • Two consolidated revision rounds

  • Final 24-bit WAV mix

  • High-quality MP3 reference

  • Optional complimentary FL Cloud streaming master

FL Cloud mastering is AI-assisted and is not a substitute for specialized manual, vinyl or immersive mastering.

Payment

A free consultation and file review confirm the project scope and final price. A 50% non-refundable deposit is required before mixing begins. The remaining balance must be paid before untagged final files are delivered.

Additional work requires client approval and payment.

File Requirements

All tracks must begin at the same timestamp, remain synchronized, be clearly named and be exported as WAV files at their original sample rate and bit depth. Files must not clip.

Clients must provide a rough mix. Up to two commercial reference songs are recommended. MIDI, project files and plugin-dependent sessions are not accepted in place of consolidated audio.

Revisions and Add-Ons

Feedback must be submitted as one consolidated request within five business days. Revisions adjust the agreed mix; they do not include new recordings, arrangement changes or a new creative direction.

Add-ons include:

  • Vocal tuning: from $50

  • Detailed vocal timing: from $50

  • Additional revision round: $50

  • Alternate clean or performance version: $25

  • Restoration, rush delivery or songs over five minutes: custom quote

Turnaround and Limitations

Turnaround is normally seven to 14 business days after the deposit, approved files and creative direction are received. Client delays, replacement files or added work may extend the schedule.

Severe clipping, distortion, noise or room echo may not be fully repairable. Files requiring extensive restoration may be declined or quoted separately.

Real Composition does not guarantee commercial success, streams, placements or an identical copy of a reference song.

Rights and Credit

Clients retain ownership of their recordings and completed master, subject to existing third-party rights. Mixing alone gives Real Composition no songwriting ownership.

Where credits are provided, please list Real Composition as Mixing Engineer.
