I finished this mastering project the day my mother died.

The story of that day is hard and has many layers, but I’m glad this album will be out in the world for other people soon.

The Run Ons- Still Feel

This track wins the award for fastest turnaround so far, from receiving mix, to mastering and going live- about 10 hours!

Jeez, slow down world!


Fun times though, cool song.

Nice audio file explorer.

As I’m often working with different versions of the same master, I like to be able to see an audio files properties, e.g.bit rate, sample rate etc.

Some of these I can configure in the standard win explorer, some things, like sample rate, are now not available in Win 7, (It was in XP, not sure about Win 8).

So been on the hunt for alternatives. The above is great for configuring what info you wan to see and has a built in player that seems to have many codecs installed by default, even some more esoteric ones like Opus/spx.
