Services

The Kitchen offers a number of audio-related services.

Audio Mastering  - We provide audio mastering services for release on CD, vinyl, DVD-A and various formats used for online distribution.  Utilizing analog and digital processing, a sterling signal path and a wealth of skills and techniques we allow your recording project to reach it's highest potential.

Transfers  - We offer transfer services for 1/4" and 1/2" analog 2-track tape, 1630 and cassette.  We have one of the few operating 1630 machines in the region.  If you have an CD master from a few years ago & can't find a replicator who will accept a 1630 master, we can help!

Online Delivery - We offer clients the ability to upload mixes as well as download references and other media using a unique account on our server.  We can also deliver masters anywhere in the world digitally using the DDP format, a recommended standard format in the replication industry.

Disc Duplication/Replication - The Kitchen Mastering offers same day service on short runs (up to 100) of CDR's Monday through Friday during normal business hours. Larger CDR duplication runs can usually be accomodated within twenty-four to forty-eight hours.

Duplication orders of 500 units or more are handled by the Kitchen Mastering's sister company K-Disc. K-Disc, Inc. was founded in 1995 in response to our desire to connect our clients with the best in CD, DVD and Cassette manufacturing. Remember, your product has our name on it, too. K-Disc, in conjunction with Kitchen Mastering, researched many duplication facilities and chose what we believe is one of the best manufacturers in the United States.

Mix Evaluations - If you are working on a project and would like feedback from an engineer with an experienced ear you may be interested in getting a mix evaluation.  Although many problems can be improved or eliminated during mastering, many issues are better resolved during the mixing stage.  Also, if your budget does not allow for mastering, a mix evaluation can make significant improvements to your project as well as provide you with suggestions and hints to help make you a better engineer. 

 

Mix evaluations are free of charge for mastering clients.
