In another post, Matt (Mugdoor) asked...
Kolstad was kind enough to recommended a service at...Can anyone recommend a great person/company for mastering solo piano?

Coincidentally, I'd just been looking at a couple of interesting services at...
http://promasterhd.com/
and at
https://www.landr.com
No point me recommending them though because I've not used them. They are interesting though.
I didn't think I 'needed' to look at these services for Taxi submissions, but the latter one even lets you (if I read it correctly) have a couple of lo-res mp3s (which appears to mean 192 kHz) per month for free! Well, that sounds like a good deal to me and I might have a go just to see whether it really does sharpen up my tracks.
However, I suppose that leaves me with a dilemma. If I had an mp3 mastered for a Taxi submission which was then forwarded, and then got a response asking for a hi-res wav file, I'd have to have that mastered too, along with any alt versions demanded. So, maybe its not such a good idea without joining and having the option to get everything mastered when needed.
Anyway, I just wondered whether others had tried these or similar services and had a good (or otherwise) experience to share.
