Mix & Master With FX ENHANCEMENTS

This service is for artists who want more than a clean mix.

Mix & Master with FX Enhancements is designed to add movement, tension, and character to a record — the details that make a track feel alive, aggressive, and memorable.

Alongside a full professional mix and master, Darkshift applies creative vocal and instrumental FX commonly used in modern underground rap and high-energy music, while keeping the core sound solid and controlled.

This is not gimmicky processing. Every effect is used with intent.

WHAT’S INCLUDED

Full Mix & Master

  • Balance, clarity, and low-end control

  • Loudness optimised for streaming and real-world playback

  • Aggression preserved without distortion collapse

🔥 Creative FX Enhancements

FX are applied selectively to enhance impact, transitions, and emotion. These may include:

  • Reverse reverb throws (intros, drops, emphasis moments)

  • Delay throws & tails for impact lines

  • Vocal stutters & chops

  • Beat drops / mutes / stop-starts

  • Filter sweeps & breakdown FX

  • Distortion & saturation accents

  • Pitch-shifted ad-libs

  • Momentary glitch / tension effects

  • Atmospheric transitions between sections

FX are used to support the record, not overpower it.

CUSTOM FX REQUESTS

Artists can request specific FX ideas if they have them.

Examples:

  • Signature intro FX

  • Drop emphasis

  • Ad-lib processing ideas

  • Dark, experimental textures

Requests are assessed for musical fit and applied where they enhance the track.

DELIVERY OPTIONS

  • Standard Delivery (5–7 days) — £130

  • Priority Delivery (48–72 hrs) — £160
