Master Audio for SoundCloud

Mastering for SoundCloud

SoundCloud transcodes every upload to its own streaming formats, so the priority is a clean master with a little headroom and no clipping, which survives transcoding without artifacts. A balanced, competitive master gives you the best sounding result once SoundCloud processes it.

AetherWave masters your track to a clean, competitive level and returns a 24-bit / 48 kHz WAV you can upload directly. Pick the preset for your genre, and your first master is free.
