About Saenz MasteringLocated in Houston, Texas, Saenz Mastering (formerly Hifi Mastering Online) continues a tradition started in 1996 by producer Marco Saenz: Give working musicians and producers access to professional audio services at an affordable price.
“I want to provide artists a viable alternative to traditional, high-end (and high-priced) mastering houses and the cut-rate, 'louder=better' services found all over the web. "Fans are demanding higher-quality music, and that means professional mastering is more important than ever, particularly for artists that record at home or in budget studios. Saenz Mastering can really level the playing field.” - Marco Saenz (Marco has worked as a producer, audio consultant and recording/mastering engineer since 1995. He has received critical acclaim for his work in a variety of music styles, including pop, rock, hip hop, R&B, Latin, country, metal and avant-jazz). Projects |
