A DDP image (Disc Description Protocol) is the industry-standard format for delivering a final CD master to a manufacturing plant for replication.

Simply put, it’s not a single audio file, but a complete, error-protected digital "blueprint" of a finished CD. This folder-based format contains all the necessary data to accurately produce a physical CD, including: lossless audio, CD Text, ISRC codes, etc.

You only need one DDP image per CD. We send you a guideline sheet after checkout to ensure you provide us with all the necessary data.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I need to prepare my files?

Please deliver 24 or 32 bit wav files in the same sample rate you recorded or mixed in.

Leave mixbus processing like EQ and compression on but please remove any limiting and or clipping from your mixbus before exporting your mixdown. If uncertain just deliver a clean version without anything on the mixbus and a version with the processing on.

Can I send you a reference track?

You can upload a reference track or provide a Spotify or Tidal playlist.

Let us also know what you in particular like about your mix and what it is lacking in your opinion.

This both lets us understand your vision of your song or album.

What if want something changed in the master?

Included in the price are max. 2 revisions. So if you want your master a little bit brighter or darker afterwards, don't worry about it, we got you covered.

Working with Schaltgeraete Studios was such a bliss. I appreciated
working with them a Lot: they were always reachable and open to my ideas
and needs. The process of mixing and mastering can sometimes be
draining and long, however I always felt being taken care of and them
putting in the extra effort through out the whole process. Very much
recommended!!!

Working with Bernhard is always a huge learning process for me and I get crisp and very musical masters for all my productions of different genres!

Bernhard has mastered our latest EP, both digital and for vinyl
production, and the result is really outstanding. Mastering is a
critical part of the release and I can honestly say that the outcome is
top-notch. I can only recommend.

What I particularly appreciate about Bernhard’s mastering is the blend of technical precision and musical intuition. He doesn't just listen analytically; as a musician himself, he immediately grasps the intention behind a production. His work gives my music depth and clarity without sacrificing character or dynamics. Especially in an era of 'maximum loudness,' he ensures that the substance always remains intact.

Bernhard made the whole thing sound like one record by bringing all
the tracks to the same level without taking away character or
individuality of the tracks.

Great job!

It was Ralph Heidel, the producer and mixer of my tracks, who recommended Bernhard for the mastering. He was right to do so, because each track is perfectly homogenous and the whole record sounds very cohesive now. This made Ralph's mixes even clearer and more accessible on every possible playback system. I m very happy about this collaboration so, thank you Schaltgeraete Studios!
