Darren Boling Mastering
Remote analog/digital hybrid mastering.
Do you have a project that you'd like to finish up but are unsure of how to proceed with mastering? I've been there and understand the confusion, fears, and frustration. Let me help guide you through the process, bring out the very best of your music, and get over the finish line with a product you're excited and proud to release.
Free test master!
First time mastering or looking for someone new? Whether this is your first album or you've done hundreds of records, finding someone new you can trust with your music can be a daunting task. I know as I spent 25+ years of recording, producing, and mixing before moving into mastering 5 years ago.
I'm first and foremost a fan, I love talking about all things music. Process, gear, philosophy, and anything related to music so please feel free to reach out with any questions or to just to talk about your project via the contact button.
Very beginner friendly! Do you have a mix but are unsure if it's ready for mastering? Contact me to set up a listening session.
Below are some examples of my work and I offer a free test master to anyone curious about working with me. I also offer a complete transparency project calculator to help with planning this final stage of your project.

Audio Restoration and Remastering
Do you have old recordings that need restoration? I'm experienced in cleaning up and restoring audio recordings to maximize sound quality and remove unwanted noise and even creating separation stems for you to remix. Everything from old band recordings to remasters/reissues (including old CD's that have been heavily limited), I can help bring your music back to life and give it the professional mastering it deserves.
