Looking for good Mastering Engineer for EP

Hey guys, my band is about to release an EP and I'm in search of a good Mastering Engineer. We're on a budget and need to keep the cost down, in fact way down.

Music style is modern pop punk, meets 30 sec mars, meets rise against, thrice, ect...

I've recorded and mixed this entire project so far but need that polished balanced finished sound that holds up to radio standards.

Pm me or reply with suggestions.

My gear list includes:
Lynx Aurora
Hammer EQ 2 buss
SSL Fx g384 2 buss
API 2500 2 buss (used on different songs)
Distressor EL8
Groove Tubes Vipre

I just did an album for a band out of Hawaii called Living In Question, a great heavy, heavy band... half the record was mixed by Tchad Blake. What Island are you on... always loves Kauai myself (nothing like hiking the Napali coast!)

I charge 85.00 a song for my work... my colleagues charge 150.00 to 500.00.

Find someone who will work with you... there are plenty of good mastering houses out there at reasonable costs. They are just usually in secondary markets such as myself (upstate NY) as the cost of living (and doing business) is so much less.

Good luck in your quest.

I'm a little closer to you in L.A., and charge 95.00 per track to master.

I have a hybrid analogue/digital chain with SSL G-series comp., Smart C2, and GML 8200 EQ, plus basically any ITB plugs needed to get the job done.

I just did mastering for a jazz album that sold well on Amazon.com and received critical acclaim from a top NYC radio station.

PM me for more details if interested.

GL!
