What is Apple Digital Masters?

Having your song Mastered for iTunes lets gives you a product that has been mastered and quality-tested for publication in iTunes. It lets your listeners hear your music uncompressed and exactly the way it sounds in the Mastering studio before export, eliminating clipping and inter-sample peaks. This means your listeners will be able to stream and download your songs at the absolute highest quality possible on iTunes. Not only will your songs sound great but you will also receive the "Apple Digital Masters" badge (seen above) in iTunes which makes your music stand out by letting the world know that they will be purchasing the Highest possible quality copy of your record.

Requirements
Not just any song can be qualified for iTunes Mastering, your recordings must be in at least 24-bit uncompressed audio format, such as 24-bit 96kHz sample rate *.wav format, you can not upconvert a lower bit rate and sample rate, if you do iTunes will automatically dismiss your submission. So if your song is already completed and doesnt meet the requirements the you will have to go with our Industry standard Mastering which will also give you a great result. If you havent started recording and want to have your song(s) Mastered for iTunes then you will need to be using an audio interface and DAW that supports at least 24-bit 96kHz sample rate.

Note: Audio Mixing Mastering does not upload your Apple Digital Masters to iTunes. You will need to use a Approved Encoding House such as CDBaby and Tunecore
