STUDIO SERVICES

Professional mixing/mastering for all genres of music.

Basic Services:

Single Track Mastering – $35/song

Multi-Stem Mixing/Mastering (Up to 10 Stems)
– $85/song*
Multi-Stem Mixing/Mastering (11-20 Stems)

Multi-Stem Mixing/Mastering (21 to 50 Stems)
– $145/song*

20% discount for 5 or more tracks.

For song with more than 50+ stems please contact me. We can probably group some of the stems together to keep it under “50” but it’s case by case. Especially for electronic producers, projects can have hundreds of individual tracks. Contact me and we can work something out. ;-D

Prices include two revisions for free. I will send a few mixes in progress as I’m actively working on a track for feedback, those are not “revisions”. Additional revisions are $20/25/30 (each tier) for Mixing/Mastering or $10 for just Mastering.

Advanced Services:

In Person Audio Engineering

Writing -> Producing -> Recording -> Mixing -> Mastering or a combination of any of the above

Everything from a full band multi-track album with multiple sessions to a single vocal recording session to a live recorded band demo or even a podcast/audiobook recording.

Prices depend on the complexity of the project, but I am very considerate and flexible since I recognize this industry is extremely competitive and many people can record their projects at home. Most of my client’s projects are a combination of their at home recordings and recordings at my studio. Let me help you take your project to the next level of professional quality.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions.

STUDIO A in FAYETTEVILLE

Studio A is my dedicated recording/production studio in Fayetteville, Arkansas. All in person sessions are booked here. This photo only shows about a third of the total space. There’s plenty of room to set up and record a full drum set or even a full band. The entire space is fully treated with acoustic foam and bass traps in the corners.
I have most of my studio equipment listed on the page below.

STUDIO B in VAN BUREN

Studio B is my home studio in Van Buren so I can be ready at a moments notice for those emergency messages when someone needs a service asap, also for remote mixing/mastering projects that don’t require an entire studio space or for those times when an idea just pops in my head.

LIVE EVENTS

I also offer a wide variety of services for live events. I’ve provided sound/lighting & performed at small festivals, small/medium concerts as well as weddings. Need a sound system, stage lighting, graphic design for promotional material, videographer, photographer, live stream, a DJ or a professional recording of an event? With almost 20 years of experience in live entertainment, I’ve done it all.
If you need a DJ or entertainment, I can perform everything from a professional original EDM DJ set or perform a tailored DJ set with your favorite music genres for a wedding or event (or a custom DJ package with different sets) or just have a playlist of pre-arranged songs ready to go. I’ve done everything from opening for national tours with Big Gigantic, Whethan & Bass Physics, I’ve played festivals in multiple states and also DJ’d small to medium weddings while providing live sound and lights.
One of my best friends, Kai Drachenberg @ KD Productions, runs a video production company in Northwest Arkansas and is an amazing wedding photographer on top of professional video production. Get a professional video and audio recording of your concert, event or wedding while letting us also take care of the sound system, lighting, graphic design or even the entertainment.
I’ve designed promotional material for concerts and festivals. From show posters to social media graphics.
If you’re looking for more media services like videography, graphic design and photography, ask for info about bundling our services and let us take care of everything when it comes to media for your concert, event or wedding.

I also either use the APC64 & APC40 mkii with Ableton Live for DJing or a Pioneer DDJ-RB with Rekordbox (or both)

I can set up three different PA Systems at once or combine them for a larger venue. My largest sound system with a subwoofer & floor monitor can handle small/medium sized venues. My medium sized stereo PA can be set up at the same time (for example a wedding ceremony or a presentation room away from the main stage) and a small portable PA system with wheels & handle is great for locations that needs amplified audio but also need to be discreet (For Example: speeches at a wedding dinner). The large PA could be set up for the main dance area of a wedding, the medium PA for the main ceremony & the small PA for the wedding dinner speeches.

I will put up dimensions of the rooms I consider “larger”, “medium” & “small” soon. For reference a venue like the main stage of George’s Majestic or JJ’s Live in Fayetteville would be too large for my entire system to cover, but the front room stage at George’s would be great. If you’ve been to some shows in Fayetteville, I’ve used my sound system at both Nomad’s and it’s more than enough or if you’ve been to West & Watson (formerly the Social Club) or a venue like the recently closed Smoke & Barrel this system would easily cover those venues. I’ve used the sound system for the main stage of a smaller music festival and it also sounded great. The stage at that festival is about the same size of the smaller stages at a large festival like Wakarusa/Backwoods/Wakaan.

STUDIO B – VAN BUREN, ARKANSAS

Powered by Ableton Live Suite & Universal Audio LUNA

I use the same Ryzen 9 5950X Workstation at home as well as the Universal Audio Volt 476 interface.

My home setup includes PreSonus Eris E5 studio monitors instead of the E66 MTM monitors. I tried to match the studio monitor’s frequency response between my home studio and the Fayetteville studio so I can easily work on mixes in both places. The Eris E5’s are 5.5″ speakers while the E66’s are dual 6.5″. I also have a Klipsch subwoofer at home, both have their cutoff at 100Hz (the studio monitors also have their cutoff matched) and have been properly calibrated. I also use my Akai APC64, APC40 mkii & Nektar Impact VI61 at home.

I have a LOT more equipment. I’ll add more the next time I’m at the studio in Fayetteville. A rack-mounted Behringer compressor/limiter, a vintage digital synthesizer that sounds amazing, another Peavey live amplifier, a Behringer studio piano with weighted keys. I want to make sure I have the correct make/model of all my equipment before adding them. I’ll also add a more detailed list of the software I use.

Cosmic Drew Studios – Fayetteville, Arkansas – Van Buren, Arkansas – 2025
Music by Cosmic Drew, Cosmic Elegy & I AM KING DAVID

* This is most likely an unnecessary disclaimer, but these prices are a guideline for most projects. If I determine a project is larger in scope than how many stems are in the project or for any other reason, I have the right to add additional charges on top of the prices listed above. This is unlikely and doesn’t apply to the vast majority of clients, but I have to cover all my bases. Any additional charges will be fairly assessed and communicated up front before the initial contract. I will NEVER add charges on after accepting a project that aren’t agreed upon in the initial contract.

For basic services 100% of the price is due upfront.

For advanced services 50% is due up front and 50% is due before any high quality mixes are shared.
I will only share 128kbps .mp3 files of full songs or 30 second samples of .wav files before final payment is sent.

Please understand so many people in this industry have been taken advantage of. I wish I didn’t have to have these policies in place.

I take payment through CashApp or Venmo.

I have the right to refuse anyone services. I do not accept every offer sent my way, but I will do my best to evaluate every project and give an honest reason if I do not accept.
I appreciate you so much if you made it all the way to the end of my page! – Drew
