More and more top end engineers around here are just mastering their own stuff instead of paying a ton of money, going with a big name ME, and getting something back that barely resembles the mix they were sent.
Anyone that sends out a master without being there to check off any decisions made is asking for disappointments.

Be there or be square. Or, rinse and repeat.
