Note: We don't recommend that mp3 files, MiniDiscs,
or cassettes
be submitted for mastering. We do realize that in some cases, clients must submit their projects
on these formats because that's what they have to work with. If you submit
your project on one of these formats, we will use every means at our disposal to
squeeze every ounce of quality out of your project.
Recommended CD Length Is 74 Minutes.
Although a CD of more than 74 minutes isn't recommended, we
will master CDs in excess of 74 minutes when requested.
However, we do not guarantee they will be accepted by CD
replicators. Replicators may require that clients sign a release before replicating a CD that's more than 74
minutes in length. We recommend checking with your
replicator before proceeding. A CD longer than 74 minutes isn't
compliant with the "Red Book" standard and may not
play properly on all CD players.
Make A Backup Of Your Project For Your Files (Do Not Send
Us Your Only Copy).
CD Mastering Services denies any liability for items lost
in transit and for any damage or loss due to fire or casualty
while submitted materials are in the care of CD Mastering
Services. Original materials are non returnable unless
prearranged with
CD Mastering Services. CD Mastering
Services reserves the right to destroy masters and discard all
submitted materials after
a period of six months (180 days).
