Mastering Studio
in Southville

Looking for mastering in Southville? Southville, North Street and the Tobacco Factory triangle is home to a huge chunk of Bristol's working songwriter and producer community. If you're anywhere between the Cut and Ashton Gate, we're the closest full studio to you.

Mastering for Southville artists

Every master leaves our room checked against loudness targets for Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube and broadcast — plus a vinyl-safe cut with proper attention to the low end, sibilance and side-length. We work on stereo bounces or stems, with one attended day available at the studio for artists and labels who want to sit in.

Tight overlap with Tobacco Factory's music nights, the BS3 songwriters' circle and the Ashton Gate/Wapping Wharf gig scene.

We're 6 minutes from our Bristol control room — most Southville projects run as a mix of in-person days at the studio and remote revisions, whichever fits your schedule.

What's included

  • Streaming masters (Spotify/Apple/YouTube loudness targets)
  • Vinyl pre-masters (side-length aware, DMM-ready)
  • CD PQ-sheeted DDP delivery
  • Broadcast (–23 LUFS) and mastered-for-sync deliveries
  • Attended mastering days in Bristol on request
  • Album-length pacing, level and tonal continuity

FAQ

How long does mastering take?

Singles typically turn around in 3–5 working days, EPs and albums in 7–10. Two revisions included as standard.

Stems or stereo?

Both. Stereo mastering keeps your mix engineer's decisions intact; stem mastering gives us more room to fix specific issues.

Can you cut a vinyl master?

Yes — we deliver a DMM/lacquer-ready vinyl pre-master alongside the streaming version, with a technical note for the cutting house.

Do you travel to Southville?

For attended sessions we usually host you in Bristol — it's 6 minutes — but on-location tracking, foley recces and rehearsal-room production days in Southville are all things we do when the project calls for it.
