The Mastering Chain
The Digital Downz Mastering Studio has been purpose-built using high end acoustic materials by Exponential Acoustics to deliver accurate, consistent and repeatable results. Built around carefully selected analogue circuitry and state-of-the-art digital technology, the studio combines the character and musicality of traditional analogue processing with the precision, flexibility and recallability of modern digital workflows. Every decision is guided by a simple philosophy: serving the music and remaining true to the artist's vision.
With fully recallable equipment throughout the mastering chain, every setting can be precisely saved and reproduced at any time. This enables efficient revisions, seamless track-to-track consistency across EPs and albums, and the creation of alternate versions or future updates while maintaining complete continuity with the original master.
