Get Your Questions Answered
We offer electronic music mixing and mastering services for all genres that fall into that category. Our studio specializes in genres like Techno, House, Electronica, and Ambient. Basically everything that can be called club music or electronic dance music is in good hands at Copilco Productions.
Our goal is to offer you as much value as possible for your budget. To do so, we start every project with a few onboarding questions to find out what your goals are and how we can help you achieve them. In the next step we send you a detailed proposal including pricing and terms. Get in touch and let's find out together how we can support you.
Mixing means we receive the individual tracks from you (kick, bass, hihats, synths, etc.) and we work with those to achieve a great, exciting end result. Mastering is different because you only send us a stereo mixdown of your whole song and we bring it to the finish line. In essence, mixing is the step after production and before mastering. The main difference between the two processes lies in the level of control we have. Mixing allows us to fine-tune all the details of your production whereas mastering is more focused on broad strokes.
To find out whether you need mixing or mastering, please get in touch and we'll discuss the best option for your specific needs and available budget.
Our usual turnaround times are: 5 work days for masters, 10 work days for mixes, after having received correctly exported tracks from you. This means you will get the first version within that time frame. We then enter the revision process which is usually done pretty quickly. Depending on how fast and precise you are with your comments and wishes, you will have the final version of your song shortly thereafter.
Overall, the following rule applies: The earlier you book your session, the faster you get your songs. If we can plan properly, you will have a 100% guarantee to hit your release deadline with us.
Let’s talk. There’s always a solution and we can operate super quickly, if needed. Please keep in mind that in super urgent cases we have to negotiate a slightly higher rate, just to keep things fair for all our clients.
If your goal is to learn how to become a better producer and improve your mixing skills, we recommend you check out our coaching services. We offer 1-on-1 sessions in which we help you achieve your creative goals and overcome any technical obstacles you might be facing.
Yes, absolutely. We will guide you through the process, give you a checklist of how to export things, and we’re there to answer any question you might have.
Yes, please go ahead and ask us anything you want and we’ll do our best to support you during the project. We’re happy to share everything we know and we don’t keep any “secrets” from you. If something needs a deeper conversation, you might want to book a coaching session to get it sorted out properly.
First of all, let’s get to know each other. We can do this via email or in a short call, whatever you prefer. We have a few onboarding questions that help us understand what your needs and goals are. Based on that, we can identify (together) what services you might need, what budget you should set aside for that, and what the next steps are. Go ahead and drop us a message, we’d love to get to know you!
