The Aria server, computers, and equipment are all located at Leonard’s studio in Atlanta. Aria literally uses a robotic arm to operate outboard mastering gear based on one of 5 presets you can select for the given material. Now, you’re probably wondering how an automated service could use analogue equipment, and it’s actually quite innovative.
The Aria process is a unique hybrid digital-analogue approach, using the same outboard equipment Leonard utilizes. Mastering engineer Colin Leonard (Jay Z, Justin Bieber, Mastodon) developed Aria at his studio, SING Mastering, in Atlanta. Aria Mastering is leading the pack, thanks to its unique approach to the online mastering machine. This is attractive and convenient to artists looking for fast, affordable turnaround. These automated systems promise professional mastering, delivered instantly-all for a very reasonable price.
Online mastering services have taken the industry by storm over the past several years.
