1Prepare and Send Your Files

Once your track information has been received, you will get your login info to upload your files to our FTP server. You can also use your own server or preferred file transfer service and send to mastering@travsonic.com. Your files will be reviewed by our mastering engineer and will let you know of any issues.

Getting your tracks ready:

Send your stereo mix and/or drums, instruments and vocal stems. We accept .wav and .aiff file formats. The bit rate must be at least 16bit 44.1K (Audio CD Format). It is recommended that you use the highest bit rate possible. We do not accept mp3 format for mastering.

Mix Volumes & Peak Level:

Make sure your mixes are at a comfortable volume and are NOT limited or over compressed. Our engineers will limit and compress your master accordingly. Having your mixes over compressed makes it harder for the engineer to master your mixes to it’s highest potential.

It is recommended that all mixes have at least 5db headroom from absolute “0” before clipping. This means having the loudest part of your mix being at least –5db from the peak level. Click Here to learn more.

We accept your master in the following industry formats:

– CD-R master (audio or data files)
– DVD master (data files)
– Digital Audio Tape (DAT)
– Hard Disk Drive

*We do not accept pre-mastered audio for quality reasons.

If you provide your final mixes on data CD (CD-R or DVD), make sure you title every track.

Handling your masters for best quality:

It is important that you handle all your masters with most care. Keep your CD in a protective case or sleeve. Hold your CD only by the edges and keep them free of any fingerprints and scratches that may create reading errors.
