iTunes Plus:


A new service launched this year is Mastered for iTunes. With the launch of iTunes Plus, their high resolution service, came the need to ensure that the files delivered to them would successfully encode into their AAC format without clipping during the encode and decode process and would translate sonically. Before today, it was trial by error. Now we are able, in realtime, to monitor the encode and decode process, view sample and inter-sample clipping and hear the results and make adjustments accordingly. What may sound great on a CD could and does produce problems when encoding them into Apples AAC format. Monitoring the encoding process and delivering a high resolution file that will successfully encode into iTunes Plus will make sure your listeners get the best possible file. We can now offer this service to you.
