Mastering A/B

A picture is worth a thousand words, so they say. So to give you the best possible idea of what Mr. Toad's mastering might do for your project, here are some brief examples of work we've done recently. There is a Before and an After file of each song. They are in 16 bit WAV files, so you can even burn them to CD, to check out on your stereo. This is not a download for the faint of heart - all four tracks combined are nearly 40 MB of download. Broadband users will have it easier, modem users will need more than an hour to download these.
