in general, effects are added during the mixing stage, not during the mastering process. i think.

oh, if you're having someone else master your tracks, definitely add the reverb yourself. because effects like that have to be perfect to your own ears - somebody else won't be able to add the right amount or give it the right texture or whatever.

if you're having someone else master the tracks, ask that person!

nah...he clearly stated that he does only mastering,which includes eq-ing,compression and gating!
i think that 50$ an hour is an reasonable price,since the dollar drasticly fell?

qrter - i agree if that is the case. i don't think he's out to scam him, but you never know... i could think of a few studios near me that would gladly charge me a lot more money for extras i don't need.
plaster - if he only does the things you describe, just put the reverb on yourself in advance. that's what mastering is for - to get it all sounding perfect as a final touch. don't pay for something you're going to tweak yourself later. (imo)

he will be paying the guy, it's only fair to ask something like that. it's part of asking how he is supposed to deliver the tracks, in what kind of form.

sure, i agree - no reason not to ask. i thought he wanted opinions on what he should do about the actual process. sorry if my general distrust of music industry types creeped in too much. :)

he said that i don't have to play for the test copy,which is really cool,otherwise i wouldn't throw 100$ for two tracks.
last time my mate did coleague did mastering and reverberisation for me in his studio and it sucked hard,i don't want to reply that again.

the only thing is that i don't wanna be like an total noob infront of someone like twerk.
i never actually come to this stage of processing the tracks and i want it to sound flawless.

that is exactly why you should ask those questions.
do you care about coming across as a n00b or do you care about how your music will come out sounding?
