I have an MP3-LP coming up, it needs to be ready for April Fools day (Ape Rules Fools Day) (that's the first of April, just to be clear), but it still sounds a tad ropey. Why, because I lack even basic audio equipment, I've absolutely no idea what the tracks sound like... at all. It's all done on instinct.
Do you do mastering? Do you accept cash? It's six tracks need doing (the others are either done or too short to worry about). What do you say?
Just to reiterate:
Needs doing within a week. I can pay.
You can contact me via my EMAIL ADDRESS or you can post pictures of that man playing the bass recorder or whatever Internet-funny thing that is.

what the hell is an MP3-LP?
and could it perhaps be called something snazzier, like say, an MLP3?

I don't know, MP3-LP I thought was more honest than "album".

btw, you were a fine one criticising my speed of replying e-mails, mister..
ask Peeps, I bet he'll remaster any old bit of audio you can find for you into perfect aural clarity for the good sum of no money. he's just like that. unless he recently went private.

No, they are a selection of MP3s designed to be listened to in order, like some impoverished facsimile of the album form, reduced to just poor quality sound files labelled sequentially.

I can give it a go and if you like the sound of it we can discuss payment when it's done, if you're up to that ?

I was thinking about this recently, how you could albeit only slightly make people listen to your music in order if it's mp3ified.
the best thing to do would be to make it into one long mp3, I think. sure, people can still chop it up, but the initial way you offer it is the way you'd like people to listen.
I'm being deadly serious. you can tell because I haven't attached any funny or "funny" internet picture.

it was a very emotional e-mail, I'll grant you that.

let's have a "funny" internet picture to lighten things up a bit LOL (which doesn't mean the aforementioned things weren't meant in earnest):

I think new id3 tags have the option to specify which # a track is and how many there are in total.. at least itunes does this, and if you press play on the first, you'll get them in proper order.. if you're talking about people skipping tracks and going straight to their fav, that's not a new thing with mp3.. you can just as easily do that with tapes, vinyl, cds, minidiscs or bass recorders.

yes, I know, but most people won't get off their ass to chop up an mp3, I'd bet.

Supply us all with a sample. Something raw.. and then something MASTERED.
Yes.
Actually, I'm just curious.

I will pay and all what I've heard from Impakt is of a very high quality, and he's a lovely lad which is most important. The big question is would he want to have anything to do with something as slipshod as my old musical detritus... that's the real.. issue.

Thank you, payment isn't really the biggest issue though seeing as I'm currently in the starting-phase of my studio-career. I just need to do things to get more experience and improve.
If you use msn we could talk over the kind of sound you're going for and transfer the tracks.

i'm not trying to start anything with you and you have nothing to prove to me, i'm just wondering if you actually can master audio or if you just thought you'd give it a shot. because it takes a lot of training to do a good mastering job - you have to have an ear for it. not to mention a whole bunch of different speakers and a proper room. then you spend hours getting it exactly right. it's a serious and demanding job...

I just wanted to steer clear of any discussion really. But yes, I have not so vague idea of what to do and what not to do. I've done a lot of reading and practicing, but I have no education to back it up.
That's why I offer to do the actual work first and let clients pay me IF they like what they hear, if they don't then no charges what so ever :)
