1.    DECIDE IF YOUR PROJECT NEEDS TO BE MASTERED: Most people refer to their final mix tape or disc as a "master." While this is adequate when referring to source material from which copies are made, a mixed recording is not a mastered recording. Mastering is an additional process that can be used to maximize signal level, provide dynamic continuity across all the songs in your collection, and balance frequency content. Some listeners note a subjective sense of "punch" or "body" is added to the recording. Our charge for mastering is very competitive (see the RATES PAGE ). Contact us to discuss mastering BEFORE you place your order.

2.    VIEW THE  RATES PAGE : Decide which package and options you want, locate your program length and desired quantity on the table to establish unit price.

3.    PRINT OUT THE ORDER FORM : We have provided an Order Form on this website. Just link to the page and print it out.

4.    COMPLETE THE FORM:

• Be sure to include your full name and shipping address (not a PO box). Shipping limited to the continental United States. Please include your telephone number and e-mail address so we can contact you if we have questions.
• Please use one form for each order; do not combine multiple orders on one form.
• Be sure the song or program titles are correct and in order; we use this information to determine what is printed on the CD.
• To view our standard printing format, go to the CD LAYOUT SHEET . If you would like your CD printing laid out differently than our standard format, print out the CD LAYOUT SHEET , mark it up to indicate how you would like your CD laid out, and send it with your order. If you have custom graphics, please call.
• Establish unit price, and multiply by order quantity to arrive at extended price.
• When specifying additional services, such as shrink wrapping, be sure that the order quantity reflects the number of units you want processed. (For example, if you want all of your 1,000 duplicated CDs shrink wrapped, the order quantity for shrink wrapping would be 1,000.)
• Calculate and record the sum in the SUBTOTAL 1 field.
• If you're local, you can pick up your product at our studio facility. Otherwise, calculate and record the shipping and handling charge (see the RATES PAGE ) ; add the shipping and handling charge to the SUBTOTAL 1 amount and record the sum in the SUBTOTAL 2 field.
• If you're a Pennsylvania resident and you are purchaisng product that is in a finished state for resale, calculate 6% sales tax on the SUBTOTAL 2 amount and enter it in the PA SALES TAX field.
• Add SUBTOTAL 2 and PA SALES TAX amounts to arrive at TOTAL. Record TOTAL - this is your final order price.

5.    SEND US YOUR SOURCE MATERIAL WITH YOUR ORDER FORM (AND CD LAYOUT SHEET, IF APPLICABLE) AND PAYMENT:

• PROTECT YOUR SOURCE MATERIAL! You've worked long and hard on your recording. Protect it with a structurally sound container (this means BOX, not envelope - padded or otherwise) and cushioning to restrict movement and absorb impact. We are not responsible for damage that may occur to your source material during shipment from you to us. If we note anything unusual or questionable on receipt of your source material, we will contact you.
• Currently we accept personal checks, certified or bank checks, and money orders. Orders paid for with certified or bank checks or money orders will be processed immediately; personal checks will have to clear first. We will be on-line with PayPal very shortly.

6.    WAIT FOR YOUR FINISHED PRODUCT TO ARRIVE: Our typical lead time is five (5) working days from the time we receive and approve your source material to the time we ship it out. If you need your CDs faster than that, we can turn them around in 24 or 48 hours for an additional charge (see RATES PAGE   and ORDER FORM ).
