FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Where is your studio, and can I send music from outside Leeds?

Most Wanted Audio is based at 94 Armley Road, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS12 2EJ. We provide mixing and mastering for artists and labels across West Yorkshire, the UK and worldwide through remote projects. You do not need to travel to Leeds to work with us. Contact us by email or the enquiry form; our contact hours are 10am–6pm every day, UK time.

What should I send for stereo mastering?

Send your finished stereo mix as a WAV or AIFF as 16/24-bit PCM at 44.1 or 48 kHz. Leave headroom and avoid clipping. Export without a final limiter, normalisation or dithering. Include the artist and track title, any optional reference tracks and notes about your release.

How long does mastering take?

Stereo mastering normally takes 1–5 working days. Mixing and mastering normally takes 5–7 working days. Turnaround is counted Monday–Friday from when work can start, with payment and usable audio confirmed. The booking confirmation requests work to begin once payment and usable audio are confirmed. Contact us before ordering for weekend work or special timing requests. If you have a deadline or need a priority session, contact us before ordering so we can confirm availability.

What will I receive?

A stereo 24-bit WAV at the sample rate of the mix you supply. A 320 kbps MP3 is an optional £5 extra per delivered file. Tell us before the session if you need another format, a vinyl pre-master or an alternative version.

Is a revision included?

Stereo mastering includes one revision round. Mixing and mastering includes three revision rounds. These allowances apply per main track. Send your notes together so we can work through them clearly. We agree the scope and price of extra work before proceeding. An updated stereo mix of the same song can use an available included revision round. Once the allowance is used, a further mastering re-run is £15 per track, subject to scope confirmation and your agreement. Mixing replacements need an individual quote. Corrections of our own errors are free.

Do you master for vinyl?

Yes. We can prepare a dedicated vinyl pre-master for your release. Tell us you are releasing on vinyl before the session and send your track order, side lengths and any requirements from your cutting engineer or pressing plant. We will agree the delivery requirements and price with you before starting. Vinyl cutting and pressing are arranged separately.

How long do you keep my files?

Finished audio normally remains available to download for 60 days from the first delivery of each track. Revisions do not restart that period. Expiry of download access does not mean automatic deletion: expired audio is reviewed manually, and unresolved feedback or disputes are held. Want us to keep them longer? Extended project archiving is available by request at £10 per project for each additional year. Contact us before the 60-day period ends to arrange it; we will confirm the files covered and archive end date. Further years can be requested, with no automatic renewal. Please keep your own backup too.
