Joseph is a true gem and it was an absolute pleasure working with him!
Super communicative from his first message, he sent detailed mastering notes, explained his process along the way, and took care of as many small edits as I needed to make sure my track sounded exactly the way I needed it to! He also nailed everything I asked him to change, every time 👌🏼
I 100% recommend working with him as I certainly will many more times in the near future.
Thanks again Joseph!

Joseph helped me out with a mix for a song and I am very satisfied with the result. He gave detailed feedback regarding the changes he did and the communication was super smooth. I will continue to work with Joseph on an upcoming project and I would recommend other people to do so as well!

A legit five stars!

Joseph is a real pro with great communication and great skills. My song landed in the "singer-songwriter" realm and he knocked it out of the park with some tasteful choices. Revisions were made in a timely fashion and only took us a couple to get the track perfect.

A consummate pro

Joseph is a find! He is quick, thorough, thoughtful and his notes make it so clear what he did in the mastering process—which allowed me to know exactly I wanted more or less of. His personality is a delight and his skills are top notch! I am looking forward to having him in my arsenal of tools that make my music sound great!

I'm thrilled with the incredible job Joseph did on mastering my latest song, "Phoenix." He transformed my mix into a polished, professional masterpiece, enhancing the sound quality while maintaining its emotional essence. His attention to detail and technical expertise brought out the best in my music. We can now CONFIDENTLY RELEASE this song!
Working with him was a pleasure and I highly recommend his mastering service. Thank you Joe for your outstanding contribution to my music. I can't wait to collaborate with you again in the future! I wholeheartedly recommend Joe to all music makers!

I couldn't have been happier with the mastered tracks from Joseph. It was easy to feel confident very quickly that he had a firm grasp of the sound I was looking for. Excellent communication, ears, and bounds of enthusiasm. Highly recommend him for anyone looking for a mastering engineer!!

Joseph was LITERALLY better than I could have hoped for! His work was swift and of high quality, and the working experience was warm, professional, and respectful.

Cannot recommend more highly and also cannot wait to work with again!

Thanks, Joseph. You killed it!

Joseph was easy to work with, has a great workflow for revisions, and nailed the master on the first try.
by Angelo Kane
Second time Joseph nailed it from the get go. Didn't ask for any revisions. The guy is fully capable of understanding what you want. Very communicative and willing to go many extra miles. As a mixing engineer I finally found a go to mastering guy for my projects.
by Pete Rauch of Chub Clampion
I thought he did an excellent job. He preserved the strengths of our mixes while bringing out that last bit of potential. No frequency range felt out of place. He really seemed to understand the project right away. He also met some pretty tough expectations with turnaround time. Overall, I was quite satisfied with the experience, and I would recommend to others.

Interview with Freeman Mastering

Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: Benjamin Hull is an excellent mixing engineer and producer! Highly recommend. https://soundbetter.com/profiles/601874-benjamin-hull
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That mastering is just about making it louder. That's definitely a component of the process, but it's more so making listening critically and making dozens of micro adjustments that ensure the track translates on all listening systems.
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Communication is key. If you don't feel like the mastering engineer, or anyone you hire remotely to work on your music, doesn't communicate clearly and effectively, doesn't manage expectations well, and isn't transparent about their process, that's a big red flag.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Fun! Mastering music full time is a dream come true, I bring joy and excitement to every project I work on. If you're passionate about the song, so am I!
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I look to start every collaboration with a conversation - I want to know what your production goals are and how you hear the song in your head.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Never cut corners during the recording process. So often artists do a haphazard job recording the tune and hope that it'll all come together during mixing. Garbage in, garbage out. During production, after you finish recording anything, constantly ask yourself - "If this was released pretty much as is, no mixing, would I be happy with it?". That's how high the bar should be.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Communication. More than my technical chops, I know how to talk about music, production, songwriting, and mixing.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
A: Two of my favorite musician/producers are Sufjan Stevens and Casey Crescenzo of The Dear Hunter - I love their work and admire how hands-on they are with the process. They have a clear idea of what they want out of production before they even begin, but aren't afraid to experiment if they're inspired.
Q: Describe the most common type of work you do for your clients.
A: Most frequently I mix music, usually anything that falls under the indie/singersongwriter umbrella (indie rock, alt, singersongwriter).
