In need of a good ME in the UK...

[assemblyworker]

Hiya folks, need some advice...

I usually go to Exchange when I get stuff mastered but the project I'm on at the mo the client can't afford those kind of rates....


Their budget is £350 for 6 tracks.

There's plenty of places I see for those kind of rates but I'm scared to send to someone at the bottom end of the market or the £40 per track kind of thing.

Would less time with a good ME be the better option? It would only leave a couple of hours.

Would that be enough time? I don't often get the luxury of pro mastering and I really want to give this project the best shot... Help!?


Cheers....

£350 for 5 tracks is decent budget enough to find you some good alternatives to The Exchange. A careful Google search (check the engineer's track record & experience rather than pictures of the equipment or vague claims guaranteed quality) should bring up several strong options.
