Mixing and mastering for Australian artists.
TEMPUS is an Australian company, and artists send their files from all over the country. Prices are in A$ with GST included, and everything happens online, wherever you're recording.
How it works from anywhere in Australia
- Send your files online. Multitracks, stems or a stereo mix, as a Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer link.
- Melbourne and Europe. Thomas works between the two, so when he's in Europe a mix sent in the Australian evening is often worked on overnight.
- Pay in A$, GST included, with a tax invoice from Tempus Entertainment Pty Ltd (ABN 74 645 130 641).
Grants that pay for mixing and mastering
Western Australia's Contemporary Music Fund names mixing and mastering in its guidelines. The others name recording, and whether mixing and mastering count as part of it is a question for the program staff. Rounds, amounts and dates change every year, so check the current guidelines before you apply.
