Garibay Music Studio helps artists and producers in Modesto, Stockton and across the Central Valley (and anywhere online) get radio-ready sound: clean mixes, competitive masters, and precise audio tuning.
From a single stereo mix to a full album master, I give every project the same close attention to detail.
Balancing levels, EQ, compression, and spatial placement to turn your raw stems into a cohesive, professional mix.
Final polish and loudness optimization so your track translates cleanly across all audio systems.
Mastering applied to grouped stems (drums, bass, guitars, vocals) for finer control than a single stereo master allows.
Pitch correction and vocal/instrument tuning that stays natural, with precision and no robotic artifacts.
Noise reduction, click/hum removal, and cleanup for old recordings, podcasts, or damaged audio files.
Send your raw tracks or stems and get back a fully mixed and mastered, release-ready track in one convenient bundle.
From upload to final delivery, here's what to expect.
Send your stems or rough mix along with reference tracks and notes on the sound you're after.
I mix and/or master your track, checking in along the way if needed.
Listen back and tell me what to tweak. 2–3 revision rounds are included, depending on your package.
I send your final files in the format you like, ready to release.
Per-track pricing with discounts for EPs and albums.
Dense sessions (40+ tracks, orchestral or live-band arrangements) run about 20-30% above base pricing. Contact for an exact quote.
Starting prices in US dollars (USD). Your final quote depends on your project.
A selection of before/after examples from recent mixing and mastering projects.
I'll listen and tell you what it needs: what's masking what, where the vocal gets lost, and what could be improved. No cost, no strings attached.
You bring the song; I make it sound the way you imagined it. I'm Francisco Garibay, a mixing and mastering engineer based in the Modesto / Stockton area of California's Central Valley, working with artists across Rock, Pop, Country, Latin, and CCM. I work with local artists from Turlock and Manteca to Tracy and Lodi, and with artists anywhere online.
My approach to mixing is musical, not static: a mix should always be breathing. I work ITB in Logic and Pro Tools, using UAD, SSL, Soundtoys, FabFilter, Waves, and more, and I include light vocal and instrumental tuning on every mix (heavier tuning and cleanup are priced separately). I'm bilingual (English/Spanish) and stay in close contact with the artist at every step, so the final mix matches the vision in your head.
Uncompressed WAV stems (24-bit, session sample rate) work best. For mastering-only, a stereo WAV bounce with a few dB of headroom.
Mastering and Premium mixing packages include 3 revision rounds; Basic and Standard mixing packages include 2.
Mixing is delivered in about 7 days and mastering in 5–7 business days. EPs, albums and dense sessions get a dedicated timeline.
I'm based in the Modesto / Stockton area of California's Central Valley and work with local artists from Turlock to Lodi. Everything is handled online, so artists anywhere can send stems and get finished mixes back.
Yes, mastering applied to grouped stems (drums, bass, vocals, music bed) for more control than a standard stereo master.
Payment is due in full before I begin work. I send invoices through Square, and you can pay by card or bank transfer (ACH).
Nope. Everything happens online: you send me your files, I work on your mix from my studio, and I send the final files back by link.
You send me your tracks (stems) and a reference song. I mix them and you listen to a first version. If something doesn't feel right, tell me what to change and I'll adjust it in the revision rounds included.
Mixing brings all your tracks (vocals, instruments, drums) together and balances them so they sound good as one. Mastering is the final polish: it sets the loudness and tone so your song sounds right everywhere and on every platform. It usually happens in that order.
Fill out your project details below and I'll follow up with a quote and timeline. Once we're aligned on scope, I'll send an invoice through Square. Payment is 100% due upfront before work begins.
