Aren't there any Mastering facilities in Bratislava, Slovakia?

hi henrik,
not really, i am the "only" one around here who offers a bit of CD mastering (but i am not a dedicated mastering engineer!) for local bands and specially electronic acts / productions, here are no pro mastering facilities, only in prague or vienna... but they mostly work on a "big budget" level for established bands.

how do you enjoy england?

i am actually from Berlin, but i used to live over five years in london, and miss it sometimes a little bit...

and hey,by the way the food prejudice is a little ancient, don't you think?

Thanks, I'm enjoying England very much.
Like the food too.

So are you going to start a million doller business in your country?

Best Regards

:D LOL not really, it's obviously VERY different from the UK or Germany, on one hand lots of room as there are not many pros in the music enviroment at all around (apart from an incredible amount of talented musicians and artists) on the other hand not the kind of money that gets you ridiculus rich. but good work and nice people if that's worth something, for me it is anyway.
but you have to be a little crazy like me to move to the east, here is plenty of work to be done to get people within music into a healthy work attitude...

cheers, and have a pint of the black stuff "on me" LOL

Did you post this poll for curiousity or do you want a place to send some stuff to be mastered?

I have my own personal fave out of the list above. I was purely curious where people were <> happy with their finished master. I've used them all over the years and I reckon that each of them are of a high standard. Of course, it's not meant to be taken as a diss to anyone who isn't in first place, just pure curiousity. :wink:

On reflection I decided to remove the poll.

I thought it may end up looking a bit unfair for some people and I don't want some stupid poll to have any possible effect on someone else's business purely for my curiousity.

Give 'em all a go.

:roll:

I've always admired the work of Chris Blair and Peter Mew at Abbey Road. But I like the old school guys. I got to hang out with Chris in his mastering suite back in 99' and even fiddle with some of the EQs on the old console.

For strong drink gimme a "Black & Tan" 8)

I've used several different mastering houses over the years for dance singles, I really prefer Masterpiece (Wally C is the man). I have also heard a lot of quality work from Heathmans and Loud, though I have never used them personally.

Mastering....

I am lucky to have the best mastering engineer working on my final master.....I am based in London.....and the grand wizard of Audiology is based in Florida....his name?......BOB KATZ........:))))) I can't wait to finish my project!
