Travis Leeman

About

I came up as a drummer and performer first. Years behind a kit and thousands of hours behind DJ decks taught me to hear music the way listeners feel it, not the way engineers analyze it.

I work with independent artists who are deep into a project and ready to hear it the way it was meant to sound. The song is there. Now it's time to get the mix there too.

My job is to hear what’s already working and make clear, confident decisions that bring it forward. No second guessing. No endless revisions chasing a different version of the song.

Whether it’s pop, rock, hip hop, or anything in between, the goal is the same. Make the record feel right everywhere you play it without losing what made it special.

Mix + Master Engineer

WHERE YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT NOW

WHERE YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT NOW

You've done the work. The song is recorded. The performances are there. Now you need someone to hear it the way you hear it and get it across the finish line.

The Weight You're Carrying

You keep tweaking. You second guess every decision. The chorus doesn't lift the same way it did when you tracked it. The low end either disappears or takes over depending on where you listen. You're not stuck because the song isn't good. You're stuck because it isn't translating yet.

What It Feels Like After

The chorus finally opens up. The vocal sits where it should without fighting the track. The low end feels solid without getting in the way. You hit play anywhere and it just feels right.

Services

Mix + Master

$500 per song

Release-ready mixing for artists who care about the song and want it finished properly. Mastering is included with every mix. Deliverables include final mix, master WAV, MP3, mastered instrumental, mastered a cappella, TV mix, clean version if needed, and up to 10 organized stems. Revisions are included until the mix is approved. New recording, major arrangement changes, added production, or heavy editing may require a revised quote.

MAD Collective Mix + Master

$300 per song

A reduced mix rate available for MAD Collective members. Mixing and mastering are included. Deliverables include final mix, master WAV, MP3, mastered instrumental, and mastered a cappella. Availability depends on project scope and schedule.

Stereo Mastering

$100 per song

For songs that are already mixed and ready for the final step. I’ll dial in the final level, tone, and translation so the track is ready for release. Deliverables include master WAV and MP3. Best for artists who already love their mix and just need the master locked in.

CUSTOM SCOPE PROJECTS

Quoted Per Project

Not every song needs the full Mix + Master package. If your track is already close and only needs part of the process, tell me what you're working with and I'll quote it based on the actual scope. This can include vocal only mixing, mix finishing, cleanup before mastering, reduced deliverables, or stem work. Send the song, what you need, and your timeline, and I'll tell you the cleanest path forward.

MULTI-SONG PROJECTS

10% off 2+ songs booked together

For artists releasing more than one song, I offer 10% off when multiple songs are booked together. This works for two singles, EPs, albums, or any batch of songs that need a consistent sound and a smoother process.

My Ethos

Most engineers will tell you what they're going to do to your song. I start by listening to what it's already trying to be.

My role is to steady the process and make clear, opinionated decisions in service of the record. Not hedge. Not endlessly experimenting. Decide. I'm not here to impose a sound or showcase technique. I'm here to make sure your song hits the way you intended it, across every system, without losing what made it special.

Good work happens faster when there's trust.

PROCESS

HOW IT WORKS

STEP 01

You fill out the intake form and tell me about your project. The vision, the references, the vibe. The more detail, the better.

STEP 02

We get on a quick call to make sure we're a good fit. I want to understand your project as well as you do before I touch a single fader.

STEP 03

You send stems, I get to work. Mixes are delivered through a private streaming link where you can compare versions side by side and leave timestamped notes directly on the track. No confusing email chains.
