Welcome to The Chop Shop, Famous Beats’ mixing and mastering service.
The music industry is constantly changing. The days of the huge record label conglomerates are gone, but the good news about that is Anyone Can Bling!.
Here is how it works. You send us your unmixed track and we will mix and master it for you for a fraction of the actual studio time you’d have to pay! How can we do this? You pay on a flat fee per track basis. None of the engineer and studio per hour fees, but still you receive the best quality mixing and mastering services.
This is how to do it:
We work frequently in Pro Tools 7.4. The easiest way would be to send your entire Pro Tools project in a .rar or .zip, however, if you do not use Pro Tools than there is another way.
1. Export each track as a continues .wav file from the beginning of your track to the end at the highest kHz and bit depth your software allows.
2. Rename your exported tracks to something a little easier for us to know what it is.
3. Put all the files in a folder.
4. Create a text file with all the info you think we might need to get the job done. Make sure to include the track’s master tempo, a list of all the exported .wav files, and a brief summary of what each of the .wav files is.
5. .rar or .zip the folder and send it to us using www.sendspace.com. Send the download link to our email chopshop[at]famousbeats[dot]net. If your file are bigger than 300MB then you will have to split your files in two or more RAR files.
We will contact you after downloading your work letting you know that everything is fine and that we can proceed with mixing & mastering.

Mastering:
Mastering is a service that is essential to making your album complete. Until you have your CD master, it is just a mix CD. It is the process that makes your separate tracks come together to form a cohesive idea. Though you can’t master just one song, we offer a by track fee for mastering to make it more affordable for albums or EPs with less tracks. Our mastering service is $30 per track starting with a 3 track minimum.
Payment
All the work must be paid in full before each step begins (i.e. If you are having both mixing and mastering done, you only pay for the mixing at first. The mastering will not start however until it is paid in full).
Once we have received your work we will let you know the PayPal account to make your payment to. As soon as payment has been made the sessions will start.
“Your Money’s Worth” Guarantee
We understand that your project is your baby and that you don’t want just anyone to touch it so here is what we’ll do for you.
Send us the entire project you intend to have mixed to lock in any special discounts. When payment is to be sent you can pay for one track up front (at the special discounted price) as a “test” track. We will mix a single track of your choosing. If you like our work at that point send the rest of your payment and the rest of your tracks will be mixed.
