Experience
Founded in 1989 by Engineer / Producer, Michael Dominici, we
are located in New York, the audio capital of the world. We
specialize in CD Mastering for the Independent and Major Label
Recording Artist and un-like other studios who offer
Mastering, our only business is Audio Mastering, so you know
that our full attention goes into each and every project. All
CD Mastering is performed exclusively by Michael Dominici, so
you never have to be concerned that a student or assistant
will be working on your project.
We have mastered recordings by many well known recording
artists, as well as a growing list of independent artists
releasing their own CD's. Our work can be heard on various TV
shows from ABC and MTV to ESPN.
No longer does an aspiring recording artist need to wait to be
signed by a major label to make an impact in the music
business. Many artists now record at home on their computer or
at a local recording studio using the latest from Pro-Tools.
However, a quality recording is still "number one" and it is
impossible to get noticed if you have a "demo" sounding CD.
Even if you feel you have a good sounding mix, remember, all
commercial CD's are mastered. They need to be optimized to
play on a multitude of systems and sound good on each. Visit
