“I have had the pleasure of using Crystal Mastering a couple of times now for some metal projects I’m involved with, and have been completely and utterly blown away by the results. Joe Carra’s professionalism, talent, and years of experience shows through on the final product. He has a natural ability to get the best out of a mix without crushing the life out of it with overdone compression and various other effects to make it ‘loud’. The end result is a massive, dynamic sounding final master that has a heart and soul. We’ll be back mate. \m/”

“As a male vocalist, having worked so hard on my debut album for the last 2.5 years, I needed to find a Mastering house that could take it to the next level. Joe not only did that but took it even beyond that. His solid dedication to reaching the best possible sonic result on every song shows just how amazing he really is. Professional and efficient in every aspect of the mastering process, Joe is THE man for all your mastering needs. Book him as soon as possible. You won’t regret it! Joe, thanks so much for your staunch effort, patience and your easy-going work ethic. It was a tremendous experience for me. I’ll be back soon! Renato”

“For me and my band Brooklyn’s Finest, there is know one else in Melbourne we trust to master our tracks. Not only is Joe a super talented guy, but he also takes the time to talk to the producer to make sure that they are both on the same page with what they what to achieve.
He is always fast and i have never ever had to ask for any kind of changes to the master. he takes the time to know what you want and in my experience delivers every time! Cant go wrong.”

Every album project I have mixed and had mastered at Crystal Mastering has come back perfect, I always check my original mixes against the mastered versions and only Crystal mastering has provided me a 100% success rate. ”
