In the room with Wil Black. Not only is he a dope producer and engineer, he’s my childhood friend. As long as I’ve known him, he’s been musical. In those formative years, I was not. What a delight to reconnect then master his tune in our space. ~Shoni @inohssivad

UMA X Smith Hill Mastering
Mastering Your Sound
Join us at @undergroundmusicacademy for a mastering W3rkshop in collaboration with @smith_hill_mastering , designed to guide artists and producers through the final stage of preparing music for release. This 3-hour session will break down what mastering is, including shaping tonal balance,controlling dynamics, and ensuring your track translates across listening environments from headphones to club systems.
Participants will learn a professional listening approach to assess balance, clarity, and stereo image, while understanding the limits of mastering. We’ll also cover a standard mastering chain from EQ to final export, along with key checks to prepare tracks for release. Each student will be provided a one sheet to follow along. The W3rkshop is open to beginners through intermediate learners. No prior experience required.
