FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
The things people usually ask before their first order.
What's the benefit of mixing down to tape?
Mixing or mastering on analog tape can add vintage tone, gentle compression, and a more cohesive feel to a good mix. Tape also introduces subtle texture, including hiss and harmonic color, which many producers use on purpose when they want a more organic sound. If you're aiming for that character, tape can be a strong finishing step in the chain.
How long will it take to receive my bounced / mastered files?
Our standard turnaround time is 3 business days.
What tape format do you record on?
Currently we record on LPR35 1/4" tape at both 7.5 IPS and 15 IPS. More tape formats coming.
Will I receive a roll of tape with my recording on it?
As of now we are not including physical reels of tape with any orders; you'll receive digital recordings only. We may consider this as a future offering.
How should I submit the audio files?
Using our Order Form you can easily upload your files and complete your order. We currently accept WAV files.
