Additional Notes
These may include but are not limited to:

Linking file names to track titles
If the mix file name differs a lot to the track title provided in the previous page, please clarify which file is which song. This also applies if you're having any additional (instrumental etc.) masters. Obvious abbreviations (e.g. The End of an Era // TEOAE) don't need to be noted, only if it's unclear.

Please do not rename the files the mix engineer provided, as this may confuse things if any problems arise, and a new mix revision is needed.

Specific transitions/crossfades
If needed, please provide details of which songs require crossfades, and indicate any specific notes for these.

Reference material
If you feel the need to demonstrate specfic goals for the master, please state any reference material, and explain how these relate to your intentions for the master(s)

Any other relevant notes
Please write your notes here:

I've tried to make the T&Cs as easy to understand as possible, but I strongly recommend having a look around the mastering page on my website.

This provides the best explanation of the mastering process and should answer most questions you may have.
