What folks are saying

Magic ears with magic gear! Adam’s exceptional musicality, meticulous attention to detail and impressive collection of analog mastering gear, make him my top choice for mastering any style of music. He’s dedicated to getting it just right and consistently delivers outstanding results. Highly recommended!

WOW! you’ve actually made me sound good! I shall sing your praises and fly the flag for your service amongst my muso acquaintances over the pond here in Scotland (UK).

Working with Adam was not only more interactive than with any other mastering engineer I tried, but his advice showed years of irreplaceable experience. Patiently working through several revisions of my mixes (and I am a perfectionist), he patiently accommodated my personal preferences while adding his black magic on the mixes in a way that preserved my original vision. This was critical for me. Without over-coloring the tracks, he gave a palpable mojo to his masters worth every penny. I also found his rates more than competitive. I felt I got more from his masters than from previous engineers who charged as much and more than he did, and with less pleasing results. “Magic Ears” is a fitting moniker for his company. You really do feel like you’re paying for some sonic magic.

Adam has done two projects for me – mastering a song, and also mastering a 40 minute audio book of poetry with music. In both cases he not only provided a clean, professional finished product, but he also assisted in the creation of the work when I had questions how to record and mix things professionally. Very recommended!

Hey there! Now that is damn cool result. The word that first came to my mind was smooth — the piece sounds smoother! And you actually got the loud middle part exactly as what I was trying to achieve; a full, heavy-duty contrast to the more quiet bits. Well done, especially considering the headroom limitation!

Couldn’t ask for a more professional cat to work with. He puts every ounce of himself into making your music sound as huge as it can be. His knowledge of all genres is vast and his dedication is insurmountable. I will always come back.

I have had a few experiences with different mastering engineers, but my experience with Adam was the best.

He really separates himself by asking questions and trying to get inside the mind of the songwriter. It’s abundantly clear throughout the process that he cares a lot about taking your music as far as it possibly can go.

Once we were done, Adam was available for consultancy and general knowledge share. Adam is a cool and talented guy who was reliable, professional, and compassionate throughout my time working with him; he has earned my highest recommendation.

Long had I avoided getting my music professionally mastered. “It sounds fine,” I told myself. “Not worth it,” I thought.

But I was wrong. So, so wrong.

Adam Matza of Magic Ears Mastering brought things out in my recordings that were lost in distortion or buried within other frequencies.

Adam exhibits the highest standards of professionalism, understands what artists want and need and is extremely easy to work with.

I couldn’t be happier with the way my masters turned out, and I highly recommend him to other musicians.

I finally got a listen to the mastered recording you did for me. My first thought, when the intro started, was “smooth.” My emotional response as the track progressed could best be described as joy. I hear both a fullness and presence in the track that was lacking before. I didn’t know that was lacking as I sent you the best sounding track of anything I have done. I released an album last year just to friends and family, but if all my tracks sounded this good I’d be trying to get more people to listen to it. Thank you so much. I love it!

Magic Ears Mastering RULEZ! Adam Matza does an excellent job. He has great ears and rock n roll instincts.
