1. PRICING, PAYMENT AND TURNAROUND
​
All major credit/debit cards accepted via PayPal invoice (no sign up required). To avoid international transaction fees, quotation can be offered in a currency appropriate to your region. Quotation subject to exchange rates at the time of invoice. More on this covered below.
We also service worldwide! Convert to your currency below for an estimate:
Standard delivery format: full quality 16 bit 44.1kHz WAV files (CD standard).
Formal quotation with links to easy payment options will arrive within 24 hours from the time/date of .zip submission. Your finished mastering package (standard delivery format) will arrive within 7 days max. from the time/date of payment.
​
If a rush delivery is required, please get in touch for a custom quote. You will need to let us know a) how many songs need mastering; b) when you intend to upload; c) any extra formats you require and d) the time/date you require your finished project. Please include your phone number and specify your country.
​
Extra Formats:
​
​
Inclusion of 'extras' will extend turnaround. Extras are delivered within 4 days after you confirm approval of the mastered mixes in standard delivery format.
Note that you can get in touch to purchase any ‘extra’ up to four months after payment for your project in the standard delivery format. That is, if you are happy to receive your project in the standard delivery format to begin, but decide later that you require an ‘extra’, then you have 4 months from the date of invoice to request this.
​
​
Free Sample:
​
​
If you request a free mastered sample of a track in your .zip submission (submission guidelines below), then this audio will be returned to you within 3 days.
​
A formal quotation with no obligation will also arrive with your sample. Again, upfront payment will initiate the 7 day max. delivery guarantee (standard delivery format).
Receiving your free sample offers you the chance to approve of how your track(s) will sound after mastering. Receiving a free sample also gives you the chance to resubmit revised mix(es) if you wish to make any minor adjustments before you accept the quote and pay for mastering.
​
At this stage, if you would like to request mix advice or feedback on your sample track before payment, then Indalo will offer this as a complementary service. Using careful judgment, you may then wish to apply this advice to other tracks you are submitting for mastering.
​
If you submit just one track (a single) for mastering, then you will likely experience much quicker delivery of the high quality file after payment.
​
​
Revisions:
​
​
If you wish to make any changes to your mix(es) after payment, then this will be charged at a friendly fee of £20 per track (26 USD / 25 EUR / 34 CAD / 36 AUD / your currency relative to GBP exchange rates). This charge covers time taken for remastering. Each ‘extra’ will be recharged at full price.
​
Your second quotation will arrive within 48 hours from the time/date of resubmission. This time, payment will initiate a 5-day max. delivery guarantee. Again, 'extras' are delivered within 4 days after you confirm approval of the revised masters in standard delivery format.

2. HOW TO UPLOAD
​
​
Create a .zip file and UPLOAD HERE
​
Please name your .zip "[YEAR] - [ARTIST NAME] - [RELEASE TITLE]"
Your .zip should include:
​
​
1: Your music
​
​
- Ensure audio is WAV or AIFF and native session sample rate / bit depth. No dithering.
- Please number and name your tracks as per your track listing.
​
- Double check that you have removed any master channel effects used to make things "louder" (e.g. limiters). Leave any "creative" processing that "adds to your sound". No effects? That's also fine. Do not normalize and do try to allow at least -3dBfs of headroom.
​
​
2: Your .zip should also include a short document to explain the files you are sending over and anything else Indalo should know. What are your expectations? How can we help make an amazing record and bring your dream to life?
​
​
a) Are you uploading your whole record and do you wish to receive a free sample of a track, in addition to a quote for the full project?**
​
b) Are you sending just one track (a single) for mastering?**
​
c) Are you sending just one track from a record to check out a sample and get a quote? How many tracks will be on the finished record and what is the total playing time?
​
d) Something else?
​
**Note, in the case of a) or b) it is useful but not mandatory to provide ISRC codes with a track listing in your document.
​
​
Please clarify if any of the 'extras' listed above are required in addition to or in place of the standard delivery format.
​
​
Last but VERY IMPORTANT…
Please specify your country in the document or as a message on the upload form. This enables quotation to be offered in a currency appropriate to your region.
