CLAY FRANCIS
MASTERING ENGINEER
Audio mastering done beautifully. Fast turnaround times and consistently excellent results.
ABOUT ME
My name is Clay Francis. I am an Edmonton based mastering engineer, who has been mastering music for artists for upwards of 10 years and have worked with artists in a wide spread of genres to great success. I love working with music and am passionately driven to provide the best possible masters. The effects and changes of a well done master can elevate music in such a beautiful way, that impacts even the most casual passive listener.
I am dedicated not only to ensuring your music meets the all required technical standards for your chosen release formats, but also that your music will stand out and be remembered by those who hear it. I dedicate myself personally to each project I work with. I maintain very open channels of communication, and am happy to provide multiple revisions to ensure your satisfaction.
Rates vary by complexity of the project, length of the project, and format(s) of release, so send me a message!
EQUIPMENT
Converters:
Lynx Hilo (industry standard)
Processing:
Drawmer 1978 (tone shaping compressor)
API 2500+ (more flavourful compression)

Kush Clariphonic (high frequency EQ)

That being said, I believe that my work stands on its own. The tools a mastering engineer uses are closely tied to their workflow, and not an indicator of the quality of product they will provide. Ask me about doing a free test master to see if you like what I do with your music!
